Looks like the CH fighterstick is still the best option on the market until CH gets their civilian warthog stick out.
I recommend checking out the DCS-Forums. Considering their upcoming simulation is about the A-10C, there is a huge interest in a realistic joystick and also to provide some data.

The TM stick uses HALL-Sensors for all main axis, so the stick is NOT force-sensing like the X65F. Besides that, the TM Warthog's Throttle models not only the split-throttle like CH does, but also the switches located on the throttle-panel and even the complete panel just behind that.
