Should I buy a joystick?

[jameslcross]

I've always flown with the mouse and keyboard, I'm pretty good with it, would I improve if I bought a joystick? Or would it just be easier to fly?

Thanks in advance

I use the CYBORG EVO wireless for flying Jets, but to be honest I have used it the Choppers and its not as effective as the mouse and keyboard, I find the joystick way to sensitve for the Choppers but excellent for Jets.

Just my 2 cents !

i would say yes to a joystick for flying.

but get one thats not light and flimbsy,get one with a resonable force on the twist grip,this is better for fine tuned movments and wont be to sensitive,

i use this one,http://www.msquared.co.uk/detail.asp...cks&fldr=mnu11

it has a good twist grip get tougher to twist the closer it get to full lock/twist.

this helps for making it not to sensitive when moving chopper and rolling in a plane.

+you can hover with no hands at 34% throttle.

not saying keyboard and mouse is no good but ur tyed down when uisng that combo,

cant type easy or have a sip of the old tea ect.

each to his own i suppose.

just my input thought id sare it with you.

yes buy a joystick, i thought i was allright with a mouse, now after using a joystick so much, i cant go back, theres not enough control, and lifting the mouse off the pad is stupiid.
