What joystick


Recommended Posts

Hi, I am relatively new to flight sim. I got FS2000 Pro as a present back in 2000, but never did much with it.

I now also have FSX & X-Plane both of which I like. The point is I am not interested in playing shoot em ups, but commercial aircraft.

Real aircraft have either a yoke (not practical for me) or a joystick (Airbus) and the pilot sits on the left. So to add a level of realism I need a left-handed joystick.

Can anyone suggest one suitable for use in this respect?

Although price is not the issue, I don't want to pay a fortune for it.

Help.

Regards

Mike

Usually you can use either hand on the joystick of your choice.;) I think that's about as far as I should go with that! Check out Amazon for the best prices.

 

Welcome aboard!

Some Saitek joysticks (ST-290, Aviator, Cyborg) can be set up for ambidextrous use, but most others are ergonomically 'molded' for right hand use only.
