Customer Review: 1 PROBLEM, BUUTT GGRREEAATT
Summary: 5 Stars
tHIS IS MY FIRST JOYSTICK
so im not a pro, but ive seen a real joystick and this completely kiks its but left and right, and with a twist too
yaa, u can rotate ur hand and it will swivel
BAD THINGS
1.) THE THROTTLE IS JUMPY A LIL BIT IF U PUSH IT TO THE RIGHT
1.) Anwser: push the lil tab back to the left a lil bit, SO DONT FREAK
This is in fact a righty stick wit all of the finger buttons on ur free-hand so no need to go tripin ur self
u do get a lil d-pad type thing to move ur view.
this is a very nice-lookin joystick
in my oponion this is a great combat flight sim Battle for europe joystick
this does NOT have a CHEAP PLASTIC FEEL or ANY HARD EDGES AT ALL!!!
just so u know, or at least i know, i have not found the #1 button(they are numbered for ur pleasure) though it might be the TRIGGER
THIS IS THE BEST THING U CAN BUY URSELF, no money restrictions
Customer Review: Mac user's perspective
Summary: 5 Stars
I've only used this joystick on a Mac, so I can't comment on the quality of the drivers and software for Windows. Here are my impressions from using it:
* Installation was cake. I plugged it in to the USB hub on my keyboard, and that's it. No drivers to install, no need to even bother with the included CD.
* Throttle control is very smooth and precise.
* Pitch, roll, and yaw (rudder) are also very smooth with great feel. This is not a sloppy flight stick in any way.
* All the buttons are well-positioned, assuming you are right-handed. The buttons on the base are extremely handy in a flight sim, for setting things like rudder trim, or for toggling various features on your aircraft.
I got this stick primarily for use with the X-Plane flight simulator, and it works extremely well. The base is very stable when used on a desk or lap, and the joystick as a whole has a solid, smooth feel. If you don't need or want force feedback, this is an outstanding joystick at a good price.
Customer Review: ¡Enhorabuena por Logitech!

I got this joystick for my Flight Simulator and it is just what I needed! The special feature of twisting stick is a must to easily control the rudder pedals (and therefor to move the rudder) and also for turning properly during aircraft taxing.
It got 11 buttons + trigger (that counts twelve), hat switch for easily move your view and the throttle control for smoothly manage your engines power.
Overall, it behaves perfect, doesn't tip over, smooth sensation. I recommend this control device if you like flight simulators, I don't use it on anything else but will see if it got good use.
Oh btw, as soon I plugged the device into my front usb port, WinXP did the rest, I didn't have to use the installation CD, and my flight simulator software detected it too when I first run the game after installing the joystick.
What can I say... I am a happy customer, x'D
Customer Review: Works great in FSX!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this joystick, along with Flight Simulator X, after I attended a summer camp at a local museum and realized how much flight sims were. After searching Amazon, I found the joystick and throttle set they used: the Thrustmaster Cougar, and it cost a whopping $186. Needless to say, I went with the Logitech joystick. I'm quite impressed with it. The buttons are very 'clicky', and it does feel a little cheap, but you get what you pay for. Also, I wish the throttle had more friction, but it's not a big problem. Flight Simulator X auto-configured it when I plugged it in, no drivers required. Highly recommended if you want a good, cheap joystick.
Also, props to Amazon for getting it here so fast. I ordered it Sunday and it got here early on Tuesday. And that isn't with Two-Day Shipping, that's with FREE Super Saver Shipping. :D
Customer Review: A Fine Joystick
Summary: 5 Stars
I received this joystick as a Christmas gift for use on my computer. The initial set up and installation was quick and easy, and I immediately used it on "Pacific Fighters". The stick is comfortable to hold, or it can be placed on a table or desk. The rapid fire trigger is especially helpful in combat games, and the swivel feature is an added plus. There are several programmable buttons which can be customized by the user, and the throttle control is very smooth to operate.
I highly recommend this joystick. It performed exceptionally for me on "Pacific Fighters", and I'm looking forward to trying it out on "Axis and Allies" and "MVP Baseball 2004". With this joystick, you'll be able to play your favorite computer games with ease and comfort.
