Hi. I bought one of these joysticks about 4 months ago and have been pretty pleased with it. It has 12 buttons on it which you can program to do what you want it to do and has a twist stick, (for say controlling the rudder in an aircraft). So far I have had no major problems. Lest take a flying game for example. The feel of the joystick is nice and has a nice tension on it so when I say bank the aircraft it feels like you have to push the stick with a little force to move it which I like ( just to point out it isn't force feedback ). The twist doesn't have as much force on it so does seem a little easy to turn but is fine though. The buttons are nicely placed so they are easy to get to. Now on to the bad points, the top hat does tend to need a bit of pressure sometimes to get it to stay where you want it to look but isn't a major thing. Also the twist doesn't always want to stay going straight but it is very minor and not enough to want me to take it back. Hope it stays like this and doesn't get worse but I am happy with it at the moment. The other point to make is it is only a right handed joystick.. I don't use it all the time as some of the games I play don't use a joystick but when I do use it I like using it. Apart from the little problems with it I am very happy with it so far.

Advantages: Good design, lots of buttons, twist handle, good base, decent price Disadvantages: Small throttle, mostly for right handers, slightly loose
