My next toy!

Force sensing even doesn't let move the stick because it is fixed and still. Nothing for WW2 pilots. Sad though...

looks good, but will the stick move or be like the X65 ?

Accord James Nut (autor of Fox software for Cougar) say in SimHQ, Warthog move.
Use HALL sensors in all axis.

So one of the A-10 sticks could even potentially have force feedback? That'd be awesome (competition is good, and it will further spur the development and implementation of quality updated force feedback in sims). I wouldn't mind having an A-10 stick and throttle, it's not that far removed from Luftwaffe WW2 stuff. Force feedback is a must. But so is rudder pedals, and the price can't be too crazy.

That Saitek does not appeal to me. Force sensing is fine for jets that are fly by wire, but for wire controlled planes, especially WW2 era, it's as bad or worse than a spring centered stick. No control forces, no airframe vibrations and shocks felt, no buffeting/impending tear up from diving too fast, no turbulence, no lightening when the boms are released and no delicious rattling or major thuds when firing multiple machineguns or cannons.

What sim allows you to feel all that?

Moving stick, most certainly - hopefully there is more information available soon.
