My father-in-law has 248 hours logged in Train Simulator 2012. I bought it on a previous sale mainly in case he had issues and wanted tech support. It's a solid game, the interface when picking a train and layout is a little rough, but sims tend to lack in that department in my experience. We bought him one of these as a fathers day present and I mapped the controls to the levers in the cockpit.

After two years of owning the hog my 2c:

Don't bother with any preset profiles. They will never work how you want them to and making your own will help you better understand controls what they do.

Don't bother with TARGET. All it really does is turn two physical devices (your Warthog Stick and your Warthog Throttle) in to one logical device (Thrustmaster Combined) that Windows sees. It does this all in an absolutely shite interface.

Just don't run TARGET and bind the axis and buttons in War Thunder directly.

If you are looking for inspiration this is my minimal hog bindings. Not bound are pitch trim for which I use a wheel, engine start & landing gear and MEC via some levers.

> It looks like a flight stick is a must, but I really have no idea what to get. Recommendations?

Get CH Yoke + CH Pedals + CH Throttle (and I recommend larger, real-size throttle clips) . If you like to fly multiengine as I do with Fokker 70/100, consider getting multiple throttle quadrants. If you get tired of sims, it's pretty easy to resell your hardware on sim forums, you may even try getting second hand hardware on eBay and forums such as Avsim. My yoke and pedals are second hand, and I got them for a third of their retail price.

Everyone else has so far suggested a stick, and I too had Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 for years, and looking back I have to admit that I was missing out the whole time.

Cheapest you can go without making something homemade is probably the CH pedals and a Saitek throttle quadrant.

You don't really need a separate throttle for War Thunder unless you want to use manual engine control or really want a HOTAS setup, though. I'd say it's way less important than a good stick/pedals and head tracking.
