<P>Cougar的摇杆还是很值得买的。<BR>就像371说的那样,Cougar摇杆是全金属的,包括所有的苦力帽、旋钮和按钮。而且在外形上也是仿制F-16Block52的摇杆外形。</P>

<P><BR>我没有用过X52之类的摇杆,所以没有办法在两种摇杆之间做比较,只能说说他的特点。</P>
<P>首先这个摇杆的特点是很重(拉力大),单轴拉到底重量是9公斤(F-16Block52是21磅),这可能是与X52比较在手感上最大的不同。</P>
<P>这样设计的好处是你拉了多少杆量,手上能清楚地感觉到,在机炮格斗中非常有用。坏处当然不用说了,太重了。不过习惯了以后就好了,比如我,现在再让我用轻杆就很不习惯,有一次心血来潮装上PF想体验一下,又装上原来的逻技杆,感觉像是手上抓着支筷子,没感觉,最后还是觉得用Cougar来的爽。</P>
<P>说到编程能力,我没有用过X52的程序,但是Cougar的编程至少不比X52的功能少,Cougar 有一个自己的编程软件叫Foxy, 首先要编一个宏文件,把键盘命令全定义到宏文件里,然后再在摇杆命令文件里编辑。</P>
<P>Cougar摇杆算上苦力帽一共28个键,其中有两个键是很特殊的键,右手杆上的一个键相当于上档键,左手杆上的DogFight键有上、中、下三个位置,配合右手杆上的上档键总共可以将28个键设计成168个键来用,另外每个键都可以定义成多用途键,比如我的PadLock解除键就设计成了PadLock解除和视角回中,另外还可以设计成多功能循环键,比如我的战斗模式键设计成了1、2、3、4、5、6、7的循环,通过定义也可以定义成1、2、3、4、5、6、7-7、6、5、4、3、2、1的循环。Cougar的编程功能很多,我用到的很少,在网上见到过一个人将拉烟设计成1秒拉烟1秒关闭再2秒拉烟1秒关闭如此循环。没有用过X52,我想Cougar的功能X52也许都有,但是Cougar的功能我在飞LockOn需要用到和想用到的都能实现的了。</P>
<P>说到手感,手上握着个金属的东西与手上握着个塑料的东西感觉肯定是不一样。</P>
<P>说说Couagr的缺点:</P>
<P>第一,很重,需要适应。也可以换里面的弹簧,我把里面的弹簧换成了同样是ThrustMaster公司出的F-18摇杆的弹簧,感觉轻了一点(有单卖的,18美元一对),但是GQ03也换了,他就没有感觉轻多少。</P>
<P>第二,里面的万向节设计的不好,各轴之间没有轴承,属于干磨轴,时间长了金属之间磨损会造成中间位置框量加大,我的第一个杆用了3年半,中央死区从默认的5%现在就得加到9%。</P>

<P>上图是Cougar原来万向节的其中一个轴,可以看出来还是很粗糙的。 </P>
<P>第三,电位器设计的档次太低,虽然我用了三年半,电位器还没有出问题,但是GQ03用的比我早一年,现在已经有一个轴出过问题了。也不知道现在修好了没有。</P>
<P>解决以上两个问题的的方法还是改造,换万向节和电位器,万向节换成铝合金带轴承的,电位器换成霍尔感应的,我的已经订货了,但是还没有到,估计要到3月底或者4月初才能加工出来,费用当然也很高,一套五百四十多美元。</P>
