Which FF joystick do you use?

Post by dave.infj » Tue Apr 03, 2007 3:55 pm

Alas, the MS FF2 is hard to come by these days, but Flight Sim lives on.

I've just discovered FSForce and am keen to make use of it. But first, I'll have to buy a new joystick.

Russel was good enough to post a review of two Logitech models and a Saitek model:

Neither the Saitek nor the Logitech 3D was a clear winner. Each had their respective advantages and disadvantages.

If you have one of these (or perhaps something else worth looking at), would you care to comment on your experience with your hardware?

Any thoughts or comments much appreciated.

Dave.

Further to this, I found this:

over at SimRadar , and wondered if anyone here has had a similar experience, or whether it is worth opting for the Logitech because of it.

Thanks.

Well i am assinant to our Scout County Air Activties Advisor ans as my PC gets draged all over the place to run FS. nearly the whole team use Logitech after having various saitak and MS sticks over teh time not only are teh logitech sticks comfy and work well they also take teh abuse from scouts who think full deflection - full defection is the way you fly a plane! My current stick (a logitech Force 3D) has survied about 3 years a record!
