I got my Warthog a few months ago, and really loved it. Getting DCS-A10C is really what prompted me to get it, and it really shines with it - but so far I am very pleased with it in my other sims, including CLoD. Prior to it, I had the TM Cougar which I had modded with the U2NXT gimbal mod and hall sensors. Also the Warthog comes stock, with hall sensors in both the stick and the throttle, which is really good.
The stick does have some resistance, certainly more than the NXT gimbal modded Cougar I was running, but not as much as the stock Cougar had. And the resistance is very consistant throughout the throw of the stick - I do not find it too much for dogfighting, at least not yet.
I am fairly new to getting into CLoD, so I am basically building my Target Profile for the Warthog on the fly as I go - I first assigned all the basic commands I knew I would need, then as I come across them that I think - I really need this on my stick or throttle - I just add it as I go. The Target software is very powerful in what you can do with it,
One thing that is different though regarding the assigning mouse function - in the Cougar, it was very easy through the programming to just assign the mouse to the microstick - very easy. Not so with the Warthog, at least not that I have seen, to assign it to say the slew control - requires some scripting that I have not delved into yet.
