Wait for the Logitech guys to iron the drivers up with the v5.10, before choosing that option. My ten cents.

Engadin.

I´ll buy logitech as soon as I have enough money because of the pedals and force feedback

The Thrustmaster Warthog is not using clunky gimbals so it should have a far smoother travel thru the x and y axis, make this new stick the most precise handling and shooting stick on the market.

Clunky gimbals?

The Cougar has very clunky gimbals
The CH also has some strong force changes thru the x y axis
The MS joysticks are little smoother

The Thrustmaster Warthog uses some sort of single ball axis which should be considerable smoother than gimbal setups.
