Cyborg F.L.Y.9 Wireless Flight Stick Xbox 360 Review

Inside the box we have three main components, the base unit, which on it’s own it’s very sturdy and has some nice grip feet on its base for mounting on your desk or table top.  The flight stick its self, which I must say is fantastically constructed, four leg rest attachments which lock firmly into the base of the unit, allowing you to sit the base firmly on your thigh when you want to move from a table/desk and play from the couch.

The flight stick securely screws into place with ease using the collar screw, making setup and folding away for storage a breeze, it also means there is no chance of it accidentally detaching after a few hours of vigorous flying.  The base is a solid one piece item that shouldn’t have too much trouble surviving a few knocks and bumps if you get a bit heavy handed during game play, its also fairly bulky, leaving you plenty of room for your left hand to rest over the D-pad and throttle without getting your arm in the way of the flight stick.

The head of the flight stick has been given lots of love and attention by the designers, with some very cool looking hard coated wires coming from each of the control buttons that surround the hat switch, as well some great looking finishing touches being applied to the buttons, the body of the stick and a metal hood that sports the Cyborg logo, all of which add to the overall quality of the controller.
