Bought one of these for MS Flight Sim not really knowing what to expect as I'd never used one before. Basically it does does exactly as it says on the tin. Great control in thw flight sim and trim settings are a doddle. Very akward in helicopters though if thats what you like in the game but thats down to the player not the joystick really.
I have had no complaints from someoen who'slast joystick was a one button until attached to an Atari!

I bought this joystick to use on the one game I have on my PC. Microsoft Flight Simulator X. It's a fantastic joystick for this game and has all the controls/button you need. It can be used for left or right handers too. Buy It!

I bought the Saitek Cyborg EVO on the recommendation of a friend and on the back of many of the positive reviews on Amazon.
I have to say that it is a a really nicely designed joystick and I did manage to get a fairly full year and a few months out of it. The adjustable hand positions, the multiple button settings (i've had no problem with changing the presets) and the roll bar are all excellent and well placed. So, given all of this, why did I only give this kit 3 stars?
Sadly, I have to agree with one of the other reviews about it's durability and/or craftsmanship. The trigger button barely lasted me a year and I am not such a devoted gamer to justify it breaking. Now, the sensor gets stuck and I find myself firing constantly (using up ammo - really annoying!) even when I have released the trigger. I am now in the market to buy another one and I am trying to decide if I should risk the Saitek or look elsewhere.
Again, an excellent, ergonomic design, but a bit disappointing - given the cost, it should last more than a year.

First of all, when I got the stick I thought it would be excellent... it looks very good. But once you get playing you discover how bad it really is... it doesn't properly go back to the centre on ALL of the axis meaning that in FS2004 you don't fly straight and level. The worst problem is that the throttle only returns to half-power when you pull it all the way down meaning that the plane is always on half-throttle, making it impossible to land, park, etc. At first I managed to solve the problems with deadzones but now it's just got impossible.
For the last two years I have just bought cheap sticks that last about one year. I bought this one with the intention of it lasting over a year but after two months, this stick is going in the bin. Don't buy it, there are cheaper ones that will work so much better - this joystick will have you wanting to throw it at the wall.

Ordered this joystick from Amazon a few weeks back. It arrived promptly through the post and on taking it out of the box it looks quite impressive.
However, on plugging in one thing became evident. The joystick doesn't hold calibration. I tried lots of techniques to resolve this but they all failed. In the end I called Saitek support and they asked me to test it on another machine. I did this and it was still not calibrating properly. Saitek then recommended that I return it.
After this incident I did some research on the Saitek forums and it turns out this is a fairly common issue. Given the number of high stars posted here I can only guess that this is all down to very poor quality control. Some people get good ones, others like myself don't.
In the end I decided to order a CH stick as a replacement. At least these are subject to full quality control.
