great stick

i use this stick for starwars rogue squadron 3d and it works great. unbelievable control. the throttle really helps when taking tight corners.

very reliable

This joystick has lasted longer than any other joystick I have ever owned, which is alot.

Nearly but not quite

If the wow factor is important to you, then this stick has it coming out of its ears. With its high tech appearance it's bound to get a few admiring glances, and its sleak matt anti-slip finish is a joy to hold. I think Saitek must also be praised for its attempts to make this stick so adaptable.The supplied key tool can be used to raise and lower the hand support for any size of hand and it can also be switched to the opposite side, as can the throttle lever, making it suitable even for left handed players. The top buttons can also be adjusted in two planes for added comfort. So where is the achilles heal? Well, for one, the point of view hat is positioned in a way that makes it very hard to use without accidentally pressing one of the three buttons in front of it (unless you happen to have an incredibly long thumb that is).Also, there are definite problems with stray signals during games causing twitches. Saitek's latest drivers claim to have cured this problem, but even with them installed there were still stability problems evident. Finally, within a day of purchase, the trigger became so tight that it was not releasing the microswitch. The addition of a little light machine oil seemed to cure this problem, but for how long remains to be seen. I dearly wanted this to be the perfect stick, but it ended up a bit of a letdown really. Fingers crossed for the next model eh!

Great joystick, Great Price, but no Windows 2000

This is one of the best joysticks I've used, and dollar for dollar it a great deal. It a rugged, can be customized, and has just enough weight to keep it stable.

The only minus is that Saitek will not support this model under Windows 2000. It will work under W2000, but you'll need to define a custom config for it, and you will lose access to some features.

Whether you are left or right handed, and whatever your hands shape or size, the fully programmable Cyborg 3D Digital Stick is designed to fit you. This model is ideal for all joystick games. With Ratio Digital Technology for faster & more accurate game play it also features; 4 axis, 24 programmable actions, trigger / 3 fire buttons, 8 way hat switch, 4 programmable base buttons, 2 base mounted shift buttons, rubber effect finish for excellent grip, 3D twist function provides precise control and superb easy to use 32 bit Windows programming interface. This joystick comes with set-up files for popular games.
