A good joystick is in the feel, not in the price. Don't be surprise that a $35 joystick can be good enough.Originally posted by ziezoe:I don't need a throttle, so currently looking at logictech wireless joystick selling at $99, is it a good buy?
you are def not a person who gives review.Originally posted by storywolf:A good joystick is in the feel, not in the price. Don't be surprise that a $35 joystick can be good enough.
The main thing is you yourself ! can fly mean can fly, cannot fly buy $200 also cannot help.
That set is $300+, but like what I say, I don't need a throttle.Originally posted by eurofighter:You can try the cougar flight stick and throttle set. It is modeled after the F-16's one. Extremely pricely though. Lots of flight simers are using this one.
But if you only want the stick, I have seen something that looks like the cougar flight stick only being sold at sim lim. I'm not sure if it's from thrustmaster. Its around half the price of the set .
Something to add on. Flying the real thing and flying a flight sim game are two totally different stuff. You dun really learn much from flying sims that can be applied on the real thing.

I am not going to fly sim, I am developing war-game, real battle-field kind.
Thanks for your help. I am using map editor by a game software. It is not about developing games to play, but rather developing battle-plans for case-study of certain operators.Originally posted by ferret69:Developing a game? Need help? If it's a DirectX platform I can help do the 3D modelling plus conversions and maybe mapping.
It is still flight sim, to be use by professionals, so rest assure to those who try to reply it is who fly it, cheap or expensive. I just want to make sure that I buy one that is game-worthy and I believe that this forum has many flt sim gamers.Originally posted by branzzz:i'm not exactly certain of your needs, since you earlier said simulators, i took it to be flight sims, but seems to be a different kind of sim now.
if its flight sim, check out the x45 stick at http://www.saitekusa.com/usa/prod/joysticks.htm
saitek also have other quality sticks.
the other brand you could try is logitech. but i feel you should seriously consider only their higher range. and MAKE SURE you get a warrentee when you buy the stick...sticks are stuff that can break and spoil very easily.
