Evening all!

I'm new to ED, I've been following the game for quite a while now but have been busy with work so was unable to commit

Fortunately, I was made redundant at the same time as the steam sale so happy days!

A word of advise to anyone like me that tried to play the first few days with a Microsoft Sidewinder Pro - get a HOTAS (hands on throttle and stick) it makes life so much easier. I managed to get the Saitek X52 for under £100. I think you can get the pro from their website bundled with ED if you have any friends interested.

I realise that my ED name is a bit naff in hindsight but hope to see you all in game.

I'll leave you with Rowley Birkin QC to describe my foray into the ED universe.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year all

Greetings Gibbo.
I have the x52 Saitek and love it.

I've been playing since BETA so if you have any questions or get stuck, feel free to message me.
I might be able to help.

I am as user and fan of the X-52 too. Great HOTAS, no doubt.
