Any other flightstick options for the Xbox 360?

[Marchochias]

I wasn't aware that there were any flightsticks for the 360 that would work with IL-2.

Good thing I saw this thread.

What is the "Aviator" flight stick like? I haven't seen any of these at the local electronics stores I've checked.

Thanks for the pictures, I looked it up but couldn't find out how much either of these flightsticks cost.

I have a Saitek Aviator. I use it for ace combat 6. I find that the handle is a little stiff and not very ergonomical. If it had a rubberized handle or something it might not be so bad. It is functional though and is a step up from using the standard game controllers. I like that the handle twists for rudder control. I find I can do more precise flight maneuvers with it than I could with a standard controller, which is needed when using planes like the A-10. Without it I would often spin upside down and slam into the ground a bit too often.

I got my Saitek for I think $50 USD.
The Ace Edge stick was a limited edition product sold in late 2007. But you can find it on Amazon.com for around $140, or used on EBay for somewhere in the $90-130 range.

I think I'll go with the Saitek one for 50 bucks, I'd rather not pay over a hundred bucks for something that says "Ace Combat" on it
