Joystick for sure. You probably find it easier to get small, precise movements with the mouse right now. But you will get used to aiming with the joystick and it will give you the ability to do both small precise manuevers and also large, fast ones that you'll need to be able to pull in PvP.

I can do just as large movements with a mouse as I can with a joystick, except I can do them faster, more precisely, and with less physical effort.
I'd rather fly JTL with a joystick for realism, but the fact is I can fly much better with a mouse than I ever could with a joystick.

And that is why the OP's question really boils down to one answer....personal preferance
