I'm Probably Going To Be Sol On This One, But...

Does anyone know if Suncom is still in business? I remember way back when, they had a realy good F15 stick and split throtle, and I was figuring well, now that I have a PC that I can fly Janes F15 on with a great frame rate, why not go all out and get an F15-specific controller (if they make a USB model.)

Well,

 

I did a search for Suncom. Nothing. Even Amazon's listings for all Suncom controllers state that they are either all out of stock, or are discontinued.

 

 

My personal opinion? Buy CH Pro products. Their controllers, although somewhat pricy, are very well made. You can get deals on Ebay sometimes.

I already have an FLCS/TQS/RCS from my old PC, but am not sure about using them on my new one. the PCI slots are set back a little farther on the mobo so my ACM card won't fit, and I have an ASUS mobo with onboard sound so there's no sound card gameport to use, either. I suppose I could see if a spare SB AWE I have laying around will fit and disable everything but the gameport, and there is a MIDI/joystick connector on the mobo itself that I figure I could get/make a cable for and use for my sticks if the SB won't work.

 

I was all set to save up for the Cougar but have been hearing a lot of mixed opinions on it. CH was recommended to me on this site, and it's definitely an option. I just don't want to buy one or the other and end up disappointed and out $200-$300!

Whew! I am obviously out of the loop. Almost all of the acronyms you mentioned are foreign to me. No idea what they mean!!

 

Way above my non-technical head!
