joystick help

8,973 ZWLenning  3.0 years ago

looking for a good joystick & throttle, no idea what to get. pls halp xD
things I need:
- must be under $150
- must be available in UK
- must not be made by Logitech or Saitek xD
- must be capable of combat sim
that does limit me, but idk what to get other than the t16000m or the thrustmaster airbus thing (which isnt really designed for combat) xD but are there any other options out there?

    I can recommend mine to you, it is very easy to use it, and it isn't expensive. There is the roll and pitch control, the throttle, there is a mini joystick (usefull for camera view), and there is 4-5 others buttons for what you would. That's "basic".
    The name is "Thrustmaster USB Joystick (2960623)"

    @Nerfaddict imma have a look at it, I'm hesitant though as I don't think it's that precise
    (Edit after research) Is it compatible with other separate throttle units? If so I might go for that actually

    @rexzion the only one I can afford is the Saitek/Logitech X52. I have had experience with it from using a friend's one, and the button mapping on the throttle is VERY finicky. The x56 has shoddy build quality and is way out of my price range and I'm not looking for a yoke... So that eliminates anything by Saitek/Logitech except the extreme 3d pro
