Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Great price ($20 on sale). Also it sticks to the table incredibly well. Joystick is impressive for $30. One thing to watch out for is that the yaw axis has much less resistance than the roll axis.



Cons

This was sold directly from amazon and not from a 3rd party seller. It is one of the cheapest joysticks on the market and it failed on me in 3 months. Buy a real hotas, not this one.

The spring is way to stiff and it clicks and pops through the range of motion. The dead zone in this stick is huge too. Lack of control especially on dcs world is very much needed.

The only way to get the computer to act as programmed is to disconnect the joystick.

Quality


This controller works well and is easy to set up and calibrate.


Quality/sturdy build, and works like a swiss watch every time.


Unless the game itself has internal support it won’t work .


No map for buttons and all is trial and error.

Price


The price is unbeatable for a joystick like this.


If you are a flight simmer on a budget like i am, you cannot go wrong with this one.


I picked this up for around 27$.


But it still works great for the price.

Packaging/appearance


The only instructions in the box was a picture advising to plug the extreme 3d pro usb into the pc.

Competitiveness


It's by far better than the last joystick i used many years ago (old ch product that wasn't usb).


I don't joystick to often not more than a hour or 2 but this joystick just wont quit for me i don't know about other people tho...  Read More


The logitech g extreme is a good alternative.


I also use this as a shifter on american and euro truck sim.
