Summary: Very pimp-tight joystick. Don't make me come ovah there b*tc
Review: This stick iz really pimp-tight. I like it very much. It'sbomb in flight simulators an BF1942 but also otay in many other games. The many buttons an' ways ta configure it, gives it extra value fo' money. and sh*t.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: eh.. not bad
Review: Well, the base is stable, and the joystick is precise enough that I don't notice any drifting while playing games. I did notice drifting while testing it in the control panel, but as long as it doesn't get any worse, I guess it's okay.

Unfortunately, this joystick is about as comfortable as it looks, and button placement is a little awkward. Still, having 5 buttons and a hat switch at thumb's reach is pretty good. Your arm might also nudge the throttle (which is at the back), depending on how you adjust the palm rest.

It's not all bad, though. The "single spring gimbal mechanism" gives the joystick a very smooth feel... you can move the stick in circles, for example, without feeling the axes shift. It's not ideal for giving the joystick a well-defined center, but like I said, it's okay as long as it doesn't get any worse.

All in all, it's an average joystick that'll do the job. You'll get about what you pay for.

Summary: It was a good gift
Review: When my father told me about he bought a new joystick for me I was wondering a Force feedback II or PRO... but it was a saytek cyborg evo..I got a little dissapointed because i wanted one of the Microsoft joysticks but when i started testing the joy in order to know if it was good or bad my first thougt was "this thing is great" it is comfortable it has enough buttons to configure almost all important functions that u use in a game like Combat flight simulator 1 2 or 3 or other combat sims the twist gives u a total control of the rudder (very important thing in this kind of games) I dont have any problems with the joy...I read some opinions here about some ppl saying that with this joystick there is a bug that make the planes go to the left I think that it is not a bug, anytime that u take off with any joystick if u r playing a realistic sim ur plane will go to the left because the propellors, This also occurs on real planes u need to move the rudder to the right in order to correct this in the take of... in few words im happy with this joystick, the only thing that I think could make this joystick better is Feedback or rumble.. I dont know exactly the expression in english but the thing that give u the sensation of holes in the runaway and turbulence in the air. Sorry about my english ppl but is not my mother language.
