- Well Worth the Price
I've had a gameport CH HOTAS with same 'stick, Prothrottle and rudder pedals for years and it was easy to map the buttons and the devices are still going strong after years of yankin' and bankin' in Red Baron3d (by comparison I broke two Logitech sticks in a row before I found CH products.They worked great but didn't hold up like the Fighterstick rig).I was forced into USB by the march of technology and a new flight sim called OFF that runs on XP.I haven't had time to dope out the mapping software ...

- Not Impressed
For the price, stick feels very cheap... buttons have no range of motion but
are merely short clicks if moved in any given direction.
No software included for macs.....I think this product should have been
no more than 25 bucks.....
Will probably return.I'm sure there are sticks out there with better responsiveness
and a much more realistic feel......

- very precise and durable
It's everything you expect from a CH product. Its amazingly precise and built like a tank. The Fighterstick USB is one of those products that helps you achieve a higher level of play. Be warned though that this stick is definitely made for larger hands. My hand dimensions are as follows: 7 3/4" from end of middle finger to wrist. 3 1/2" wide across the palm. Thumb length is 2 3/4". I can reach everything without too much trouble, but the top (8-way) hat switch and the top button is a bit of a stretch. This ... Read More

- Best joystick ever
Probably the best joystick ever made. It cannot be compared to other joysticks that wear out or snap in half in 3 weeks. Don't bother with Logitech or Microsoft. Gravis used to be good. If you can get a Blackhawk digital, I recommend it. Nothing beats the Fighterstick though.
It has more buttons than you can even think to use. It has a heavy base so you can set it on your desk and have one hand free, instead of cheaper joysticks where you have to actively hold down the base to keep the thing from ... Read More

- Great Joystick!!!!!!
This the Best joystick I've ever owned.I've had a lot of different ones over the years.The best one I had befor this was the Thrustmaster ones that I still do use.The main difference between the Thrustmaster ones is that they have a very very hard spring ,that even tho is very strongly build can make anyones hands and arm get very tired and sore after any long use plus you need to strap down the base otherwize the spring tenson is so strong that to pull the stick in any direction just lifts the whole base and ...
