Hi guys,

Playing arena commander and elite dangerous, I decided that playing with an xbox controller is not enough for me and I want to upgrade to a HOTAS setup.

After some research online, I found a very nice combination of Thrustmaster T16000m & Ch pro throttle. But I am residing in the UK and the price for those two are (£45+£110=£155) in comparison with the US where it would be around 100 dollars for both. The X55 rhino is £170. While reading online, one is considered a budget HOTAS while the other a budget Warthog (mostly due to price difference between them in the US I suppose).

My main questions are:

1. Is the joystick of the X55 better than the T16000m. If yes. Is it noticeable? or a noob like me won't notice a difference.
2. Does the X55 Rhino still suffer the same poor QC as it did on the first months of its release? (horror stories if you read online reviews).
3. Which set up would you choose? If you own both, which one would you suggest?

Any help would be appreciated.
