/u/naquino14 is a 15 year old member of our community. His drive to join us in the combat Flight Sim hobby is greater than many others I have met. I know only a small handful of other hobbyists who are building their own DIY HOTAS, and they are Electrical Engineers.

I think this is exactly the sort of person we are lucky to have in our community, and it's a real shame that he's playing on a combination of broken Playstation controllers, cardboard, and loose wires. So, I've endeavored to buy him a HOTAS, and if I end up the only contributor to this, then that's okay. He has asked for an x-56, but perhaps we could buy him something nicer if more folks pitched in.

I know times are tough for everyone right now, so absolutely no pressure. But if you can, let's do just a little bit of good. I know I wish I had had someone to encourage my interests and passions at that age.



Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I hope my longtime standing in the community helps reassure folks of the genuine nature of this.

Thank you!
