1 out of 5 stars Very poor at fine control..........   November 12, 2007
 6 out of 6 found this review helpful

Yes, It's adjustable
Yes it has pretty blue lights.
But that's it on the "pro" list.
This stick has one very very major drawback if you are using it as a "Flight-stick":

The deadband around the neutral point is HUGE.

So, starting with no pressure on the stick - you make a fine correction by pushing / pulling and......nothing happens.
So you push / pull a little more and......nothing happens.
By now you've moved the stick-top a full 1cm, and THEN you get a reaction, or rather an over-reaction. By now it's too late.........

I've tackled Saitek at length about this issue, but they insist that it's normal. There are other issues like the wandering rudder, which can be cured in the short-term by editing the registry, but this excessive deadband has no fix.

If you fly flight/combat simulators I suggest you avoid this stick at all costs.

Excellent made stick.. Very stable, heavy weight, hard to tip over... Force feedback is excellent, it was the selling point for me and im not dissapointed. The adjustability of hand rest and top buttons made it feel like it was made for my hand.. so comfortable i felt like ive been jerking this stick around for years the very first time i gave it a good yank session. The only down side that i have found is that i occasionally lose calibration during a game after a couple of quick back and forth type motions, very rare though. Overall i Love It.

I'm really surprised at the high ratings this joystick has received. I had high expectations after reading all of it and went out to get one.

Out of the box it looked great; Loads of buttons and even a little blue LED... if that sort of thing turns you on.

Then I calibrated it and tried all its buttons. It had several forcefeedback simulations - a helicopter, machine-gun, even what seems to be a toilet flushing. Still great.

Then I installed a couple of flight simulations games and was totally dismayed at it's response, or lack of. It works great it you intend to sweep left and right accross the screen, but if you need accuracy, pinpoint targetting... forget it. There is no response for movements of an inch or so.

I had better response from my genius joystick that cost barely 1/3 the price.

I ordered this device. Paid for it. Established that it was never shipped due to low stock. And have never heard anything since!


5 out of 5 stars Great to use with Microsoft Flight Simulator   February 15, 2007

Installs easily, works fine. A little big and clunky to have next to a laptop. I was satisfied. My hands are small and even with all the adjustables set, it was a stretch for me to use it with one hand.
