The German company

Check out the rudder control - two buttons on the throttle.
Has got Force Vibration too.

I read the reviews over at Amazon and some IL-2 pilots said it was kickass for that price.

Anyone here has experience that you wanna share with us??

I have one of these and although it has a good feel to it there is an issue with the last 5mm or so of travel not being recognized in each direction on the stick. It may not bother you or it may annoy the hell out of you...

I used it for a brief period with IL2 then upgraded, and then upgraded and then upgraded, and finally upgraded again lol.

I didn't enjoy the rudder on the throttle in combat although it does work well especially on the ground.

The force feedback is just a shake but ultimately not a bad stick for the money.

Cheers
