Joystick recomendations?

I have an old Logitech wingman JS and it might be time to upgrade. Any recomendations? Nothing too expensive. Must have POV button and rudder axis (z-axis?)

Any to avoid?

I just bought il2- CloD:haha: and it dosen't even recognize my js!:/\\!!. It works just fine on all of my other games.

Maybe I don't need a new JS?:hmmm:

Heres the one that I've been using for years now. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16826102204
Its cheap, reliable, has a POV switch and a rudder axis. A word of warning however is it tends incresses the throttle by 1% in IL-2.

Do you have the latest driver? I use a Logitech Wingman Force 3D. Its old, but gold....I did some googling and found new logitech drivers for my 64 bit win7.

Ive been happily playing flight sims for years with that stick. And, with the new drivers, Ive rediscovered them.

Flying is my dream job. Preferably an A-10 in the USAF! :rock:

If not, theres a couple nice ones on amazon for less than 30 bucks.

Thanks.:salute: That's probably the modern version of my JS:haha:, which is fine with me.

I've got the Thrustmaster T.16000, like most modern sticks it is great once you've fought your way through the software to set it up for each game.

If your going to play combat sims, try a hotas stick.
Way better and a plus if it's programmable, I have a saitek x52 pro, and loving it.... Only problem is that saitek customer service is s**t...
But I am upgrading to the x-65f soon!
