Good joystick

Captain Vlad · 07-05-09, 10:39 AM

My last joystick, a Wal-Mart special, lasted for years and I had no complaints about it, but it gave up the ghost. I have a little birthday money to spare, and wondered if anyone had some thoughts on a good replacement for under $50?

Cyborg Evo, and if you can afford it get teh force feedback version,. I have heard good things about that one.

I have the standard Evo and it is bullet proof, easy to configure, comfortable, what else can I say.

It has a firm movement but you don't need to be Arnie to move it. You don't feel like the thing is going to snap when you do that split S.

Cyborg Evo the way to go.

I'm looking for a good stick too. My main concern is durability.

That stick costs 120 bucks here. I'm better off just getting the X52 at 160 bucks imo.

The vendor is out of stock though.

Have one of those (collecting dust), good stick for the price, no complaints. Twist to control rudder would have been a welcome feature though.
