Have you looked at somethign like the Logitech Extreme 3D Pro? Its a good stick for the price range an you really don't need a throttle if you are only using it for ED.

On a different note, I had my first interdiction by a player last night. I am unfortunately still in my Sidewinder and shortly before this I had just swapped out my cargo holds for shields and a scanner to do some exploring. Thankfully, cos the idiot who interdicted me was Flying an eagle with a multi-canon but no shields (for whatever reason). Thankfully I won the battle and I gave him the chance after interdiction cos I didn't have any cargo but he still fired on me. At least I walked away with a bounty collection.
Found a sweet trading route and making ~130k per run with my trade fitted Cobra.
Interesting video.

To not derail the screenshot thread, what resolution you playing at Reavs?
Also, bought myself an Eagle last night and going to try my hand at some bounty hunting and assassination missions. I picked up one and have gone to the system but battling to find the person in question. Says I have to kill Gen. X. How do I find this person/NPC, just by scoping out those unknown signals ?
*Took me about an hour or so to figure out how fire groups worked.

Scan all ships in the system (target and point ship towards them until you have all the info). Also check out the Nav point in the system and the resources sites and scan any ships comming through there.
I suggest you load up a warrant scanner and Interdictor if you plan on doing more bounty hunting.
