I am looking to buy a new joystick for JTL. Wondering what joysticks people are using for the game. Please list pros and cons along with any problems. I thank you much.

I use a Logitech Attack 3. Works great.
Best advice is to just go with the one that you feel the most comfortable with. Pretty much all of them share the same functionality, but you don't want your trigger finger going numb after 50 + kills.

Don't know if they still make it but I use the Logitech Wingman Extreme. It has enough extra buttons to map like target nearest enemy and target under retical. And every thing is in close prox of your main hand and it is heavy enough to stay put on the desk when you get overlly excited while in combat.

I second that, except I'm not sure you can get them anymore. I think the phrase is "went out with the Ark". But check eBay.

saitek.
x43 hotas is great. the new one is even cooler looking.
you can not beat a hotas system for dogfighting. i almost never have to touch the keyboard with this setup.

I love the Saitek x52. It's pricey, but well worth it. It doesn't feel as sturdy as my CH Flightstick, but it's much easier to program and has a lot more options for the same price.

I have the Saitek Cyborg Evo. It's hotas as well, with a twist stick. It's also pretty inexpensive. I paid $30.
It's also available in wireless

I use a CH products F-16 Combat Flightstick. Built like a tank and I love the solid, dependable feel of it. You could drop kick it and it would still work.
