A Mighty Mad Catz F.L.Y 5 Flight Test!

Games Computers

Add a comment By Ben

This May we've got an awesome Mad Catz Grand Prize Pack up for grabs with our Gorilla Gaming Rigs and we thought we had better give the F.L.Y 5 Joystick and Throttle setup a quick flight test just to make sure it's ready for some hard core PC gaming though out the coming winter!

We decided to put the joystick through its paces with two of the hottest space sims, Elite Dangerous (rumor has it this is coming to Xbox) and Star Citizen. Though Star Citizen isn't quite a finished game yet if you back this kickstarter gone crazy you'll get some pretty cool early access content :)

First up – Star Citizen! A quick race should be perfect to see how the joystick handles itself with the quick, twitchy movements required in a good old fashioned upper atmosphere high speed race through a cloud city :) For this one we've got the joystick hat set to control directional boosters and afterburner set to button 11 for easy access from the throttle.

The Mad Catz S.T.R.I.K.E. 7 Gaming Keyboard is being released on October 19th! Our Gaming Gorilla called this “the most ultimate keyboard – ever.” Whether your game of choice is an RPG, FPS, MMO, RTS, MOBA or any other genre, you can now customize your keyboard's physical arrangement to meet your needs. I think the following video best illustrates why the S.T.R.I.K.E. 7 is so good. Check it out, and then place your pre-order.
