I used to use a stick type Tx many years ago when I raced but when I got back into the sport a couple of months ago I was advised that a wheel was the way to go so I bought a wheel type.

I have just bought myself a new stick type Tx this week though as I couldnt get to grips with the braking on the wheel.

Steering and acceleration were absolutely fine, but in the cut and thrust of a race around the tricky infield I just didnt find the action required for rapid acceleration and braking an intuitive or instinctive one.

I know others prefer it, but for me the gain of effective braking with sticks outweighs the loss of the wheel for steering.
