Well the foot print of the pit I'm going to convert is about 3'x5' so thats not too bad but it will be getting a multi monitor setup so it will obviously be getting wider in that respect

Moving so it will be awhile before I have a dedicated space. Until then I need to find a good desk to repurpose.

I am considering purchasing a joystick, but not entirely sure about that yet. I plan to buy the Elite package, so dropping $60 in the beginning seems enough to be sure a joystick would even be desired beyond that point.
However, I do have two screens at the moment, so being able to take full benefit from that would be awesome

Two words brother... "Cable Management" , I'd recommend 2" PVC Pipe corners at a minimum.

Any real news on which joysticks it will actually control? There is nothing as sweet as being able to play at like like your in one of those battletech pods they used to have all over.
