5.0 out of 5 stars Great Joystick for the Price!, November 12, 2002

By	"kidcritic" (Los Altos, CA United States) - See all my reviews

This joystick is a great buy! The throttle helps lots during a flight game. This joystick is also good for driving too. The base is nice and big, so the joystick doesn't move around when your playing a computer game. The grip is very good and it's hard to lose it! This definatly is the best joystick in the price range.

4.0 out of 5 stars For budding Maverick's everywhere..., June 9, 2003

By	AntVector (NY) - See all my reviews

I'm a big logitech fan, since they tend to deliver solid, quality equipment that won't let you down. This joystick is a great example - simple, sturdy and versatile.
I don't play many top-end flight sims, but I can imagine if you did you might find that a more complex, button-riddled stick may suit you more. However, for all you amatuer fighter-pilots this 6-button stick (with built in throttle) should be right up your exhaust - smooth and solid to handle (I hate sticks which feel too loose), with a nice heavy base to keep you on the desktop when the MiG's start buzzing too close.
Naturally you can customize the buttons for different games, and the base-mounted throttle is easy to reach and smooth to operate.

You might find the slider-throttle tricky to reach in a hurry if you prefer to play flight game's with both stick and keyboard; but for the most part its a great addition, and saves you having to splash out on a seperate throttle or to keep a finger over those + and - keys all the time ;) I find the two base mounted keys ideal for mapping to the left and right yaw in flight games, and plus this keeps your hands over the throttle.

Junior top gun's will enjoy the easy setup and installation through the USB port, and the simple attractive design will go great with that bomber jacket and aviator shades. Kick the tires and light the fires...

4.0 out of 5 stars Great design, easy to install., January 16, 2003

By	Sailoil (Dublin Ireland) - See all my reviews

This is a well designed joystick with multiple controls which are laid out cleverly so that you have discreet areas for each control. That way you are less likely to hit the wrong one by accident.

I have it connected to a Dell dimension computer. Installation took all of about two minutes. Load the CD, when prompted you plug in the joystick, and then you test the settings. And that's it. Couldn't be simpler.

Nice heavy base to prevent it jumping around, and the handle is perfect for adult hands, although small kids might find it all a bit large.
