^I just bought one this summer for my little brother from that very link.

It's no longer listed on Amazon as a new purchase item (although used ones have shot up to $123 apparently), although it is on TMs site still.

Anyone heard anything?

Note, the non HOTAS (stick only) version is still available.

I'll be interested to see if another entry level HOTAS is released from them.

I haven't heard anything, but I as well happened to be looking for it on amazon yesterday as well and noticed this. It will be a shame if they stop selling these as it was hard to beat for the price.

Same with Newegg which has it listed for up to $200!

I got one about two years ago. It is a really good entry level setup considering the price and that it is essentially a HOTAS for PS3.

They are still available in the UK.

Try looking for the same stick but made by Guillemot? I think they have a license to produce them, but that may be europe only.

BTW, the throttles for these are awesome - I just replaced the circuitry of mine with a 12-bit BU0836 board and hall sensors and it ROCKS! Gonna add on some POV hats next smile

My understanding is all TM stuff is now made by Guillemot. They own the rights to the TM brand. Maybe I'm wrong?

Also, If you need to gut the throttle and put in halls and Bodnar board (which aren't cheap!), then I'd say the throttle isn't "awesome", so much as it has potential to be awesome. smile
