Didn't work . I returned it for a better product.!

Bought this and plugged in to my new $700.00 Laptop and worked ok but had major issues AFTER using the joystick. My keyboard and touchpad no longer worked and had to take it in !! still unsure what happened!

Out of the box, the stick had a bad yaw axis. It was so loose that the weight of my hand on the stick would send my ship spinning.

Just once, I'd like for Logitech to make something that is flawless. Guess I'm on my sixth hard lesson learned from them. No matter what, I can not get this thing to move slightly forward.

Did not work for the xbox adaptive controller application, even though they are supposed to be comaptible items.

We downloaded everything that it required, and we never even could get the lights to come on. It would show up on the computer, but never connect.

I bought this on the recommendation of a Best Buy employee who said this would would on a Mac. It doesn't. There are no drivers available for download.

Bought this thinking I might be able to use it with any of the games I play. Was completely wrong. Returned it and bought a wired xbox controller.

I got this joystick years ago and it still works great. I bought HAWX a few months ago and have been loving the joystick since it's fully compatible with the game. I had to change around a few buttons to get it to work to my liking, but overall I'm completely satisfied. I'm confused with the PS2's USB capability, but I'm sure that if I did it right I could set it up to play Ace Combat 0 on the PS2, which would OWN. Of course, it has some downsides. While it's widely compatible, it's a tad difficult to control and takes a while to get used to. I notice that it shifts around slightly when I'm forced to suddenly change direction, which throws me off a lot. If it were a bit heavier, it probably wouldn't shift as much, and the joystick would be easier to control. It's also a bit stubborn depending on the platform that it's on. Overall it's a great product for its price, and while I'm considering getting a more realistic joystick for Christmas, I'll still love this if I don't get one.

You can't use this if you don't have instructions on what the 12 buttons are, and how to set them for what they are suppose to do!!!!!!

I've had this for about six months and it's proved to be very reliable under daily usage. I play mostly Rise of Flight and IL2 with it and have slammed it around quite a bit (Fokker on my six, you understand). No problems at all and it feels just as solid as the day out of the box. I love the feel of it too. Good fit for large hands on long missions. I previously used a Microsoft Sidewinder 2 for eight years (!) and finally needed to replace it. I was reluctant to try another brand, but this has been a good choice. Rudder controls are very smooth as well. Only issue is it seems to have some software compatibility issues with some games. Buttons show up under the wrong number on the game panel so I have to calculate the difference. No biggie, but it's a thing. Very pleased with this purchase and would recommend for any flight simmer.

Computer joystick but doesn't work on all systems. Need to tell you that on box but only says it uses so much memory

We could not find a game in my sons huge library of games that it would work on.we returned it

Had to hold the USB cable to one side to get it to work. I will be returning this.

I always research my products that I purchase. This was one of the best joysticks I've ever used. Not only because of the amazing quality for the price, but because it can be very difficult to find a joystick with just the right tension. Many allow even the lightest of touch to move which makes it very difficult for smooth accurate flying. Tension makes the stick feel more realistic as well as easy to use especially for flight sims. Works for Windows 7 (may need to download updated drivers from website) and software allows for fully programmable buttons and axis'. I use mine on WIndows 7 for Battlefiled 2 and I prefer it over my friends Saitek X52 Joystick. Con- Although you won't find a better joystick for the money and even verses some more expensive models, the other reviews are totally correct when it comes to the Handle Twist function (used for tail rudder) becoming off center. Mine seems to favor the left just slightly. Unplugging and plugging back into the PC helps center again but not always. Calibrating won't help. Might just be a side effect of having a twist handle joystick. This is the only reason I don't give it a perfect 5.0 rating.

purchased for xplane 9 running on win7 pc. the best buy sales associate told me to download the drivers directly from logitech and ignore cd drivers in the box. took all of 5 minutes and my joystick was installed and running. read other reviews and was cautious but have played with it for a couple of hours and really like it have not seen any problems works great.

I walked into bestbuy some time ago, and me having a bit of money, Was looking around. They had one of those store setups of the flight simulator and this joystick, and I was amazed how well it worked! It was like a dream, So for only $29 i picked one up and took it home. Less than 5 minutes later, I was already flying in the air on FSX Deluxe. I've tried on XP,Vista,Win7 and they've all worked. Great joystick, go out and get one.

being wary of the realization thats it's a flight stick with "weak points" . I bought this for my 11 year old, explained the importance of treating it gently right away because of the possible weak points (He's an obedient kid like that), and he's been using it for about 3 weeks now for Flight Sim X and Aces High, absolutely no durability issues. Installation, I have Windows XP Home, and I installed the software first, and "waited" for the software to instruct me when to plug in the controller (some of my other external equipment wouldnt install without waiting for the software, so i assumed the same with this). No trouble at all, worked easily first try. Nice throttle control built into the front, the controller also has a "twist" control which i though was cool, kind of like a "motorcycle grip", anyways, our games responded well to the full range of motion, all the buttons worked, etc. I reccomend.

Solid construction, cheap in price, feels great in your hand. If you don't mind using the paddle style throttle then this is an excellent entry level Flight Stick.

The joystick is great. Everything is. Except the force feedback when your trying to make a clean landing. The joystick can work for lefties, but just doesn't feel right or proper. Perfect for righties. Other than that, I recommend the joystick for Microsoft flight Simulator and X- Plane. If your looking for Microsoft flight simulator x with this game, make sure to not download it with Windows 8. It saves your time and money. Works fine for Windows 7, and Windows Vista.
