My obutto is configured for racing. I still haven't jumped on the
HOTAS or rudders, Wife made sense and asked if I really needed it because how often have I flown in the past 5 years or so. My honest answer...I haven't flown ANYTHING in about 5 years or so, so how often would I really fly if I had the gear. My main hobby is racing...and that's what I have for gear.
Guess I'll be the very late comer to the party when everyone's tired of it...although I'm an engine run trainer at my base so I get to "fly" our USAF A-10C simulator whenever I want.
