I have the options of:

X-45

Cyborg Evo

Black Widow


My greatest problem which has plagued the last two or three sticks I have owned have been a loss of calibration after a period of time.

What are your thoughts, peoples?
My thoughts are, if you are in the -$100 price range you should look at the Thrustmaster T1600M. It is the only lower priced stick with Hall Effect sensors that make it 256 times more responsive then any other non-HE stick on the market. I went to this stick from a Cyborg and the difference was like going from a soap-box racer to a Ferrari. The only sim I was flying at the time was Rise of Flight, and it was night and day difference.
