Re: is this a good joystick

I have the extreme 3D pro as well. I'd say logitech is a safe bet. I still use the 'W,A,S,D' for throttle but any joystick will really help you. That is a good buy, I saw that same one for 59.99

Re: is this a good joystick

money shouldnt be a problem as long as its not over $100 so if you know something thats better for sure Id aprechiate it if you posted it

Re: is this a good joystick

I'm shopping for a joystick too. The Thrustmasters are designed like a modern flight stick but the quality seems lower. I liked the feel of the Freedom over the 3D Pro and think its a good choice. You might consider the Saitek X52 or CH Products 200-571 which is modled after the F-16.

My price range is $30 to $50 and I'll probably buy the Freedom.

Ok ill be honest,

Ive had 2 logitek sticks and they both worked fine for about a month then died n wouldn't calibrate. Got a replacement but traded it in for a MS forcefeedback 2. This was several years ago, the FF2 still works great.
Although the FF2 is no longer produced.

However i play flight sims mostly so my usage was quite high, for you a logitek might last. If you can push your budget up to around 100 US check out CH gear at www.provantage.com This stuff will last you years, just look at any decent flight sim forum.
cheers

Re: is this a good joystick

thanks for the info but I already ordered 3d pro, if this breaks down Im going for something better, i heard this is one of the best logitech joysticks

Re: is this a good joystick

why is it that cordless products always seem to have a habit of running out of battery life just when your doing something important :S

maybe its just my luck.

Re: is this a good joystick

I fly better with this $17 gamepad than i do with this $100 system. In bf2 at least, every other flight game i stick with the Saitek.
