Need advice on buying my first home cockpit setup
I’m finally looking to get a proper home cockpit setup instead of just using a desk, but I’m not sure what’s worth buying and what’s overpriced.
Mainly planning to use it for MSFS / xplane, and I want something solid that will last a few years without needing constant upgrades. I don’t need anything insanely high-end, but I also don’t want cheap stuff that feels flimsy.
What would you guys recommend for:
cockpit with AP panel of the plane
best value brands, can be Airbus or Boeing
Budget is around 400€.
Would appreciate hearing what you’d buy again and what you’d avoid after experience.
