please recommend a low cost "flightstick"

If you find that you enjoy "our humble little game" you might save your pennys and get one of these (when they are released in the fall).

Logitech's "Flight System G940" looks like it might be just the ticket for someone looking to get all the bits and pieces needed to fly HOTAS. Early reviews look good and the price is "ok" if the quality is really their...stick, throttle, buttons, peddles and force feedback.

p.s. FOR NOW, most of the advice you have received is good, any of the saitek sticks will do...
