Pros:Low resistance allows excellent precisionPlenty of buttonsGood calibration softwareCons:Base is too lightTrim wheels are useless and cause problemsNo rudderNo buttons near the throttleThe stick feels quite good but I wish I had gotten something else. The base tips over because it is very light (and I admit I probably jerk the stick too hard). The trim wheels on the base are not useful and I sometimes accidentally move them off center while I'm using the stick. That is very inconvenient. I was aware that the stick had no rudder when I bought it (I bought it with the CH Pro Pedals) but I didn't realize how complicated the separate rudder would make setting up games and sims. I used to use a Logitech 3D Pro which was a really lousy joystick but it worked perfectly the moment it was plugged in, with minimal setup.CH has a great reputation but this joystick was a mistake for me and I'm going to replace it with something simpler.
