Thanks slick deals!
It's important to note though that the only way you're going to get better (and all-metal internals) is by spending much more.
At 300 bucks this is a great deal. It's certainly better than the lower end cheaper models. At its normal 500 buck price though it becomes less enticing.
If you want all metal internals I recommend looking at all the custom flight stick makers out there nowadays (there are a few). Turn around time can take as much as 2-3 months to have one made and shipped, but it's typically worth it.
Prices on a base and stick from one of these makers (combined) is going to be around 400-500 bucks than another 300-500 for throttle or additional stick. So overall it could end up being nearly triple the cost of this warthog combo pack right here for 300 for everything.

I tried it in Oshkosh. It really feels great and I am pretty sure that most flight simmers will get one and sell their Saitek.

So... never?
This is a pretty good price on this HOTAS, but I seem to remember it going down as low as $250 on Amazon. Too lazy to check SD threads and it may have been a PM or warehouse deal.
