What could it be?

simple..

I bought a new joystick! Gone is my cheapo bargain bin stick, and in it's place sits a Logitech Wingman Extreme 3D.

Now I have a proper rudder control, a hat switch...boy are they useful...and a smooth throttle slider. Flew a few missions with it, and my kill rates have nearly doubled!
I can snap roll, I can steer on runways! I can roll properly, I can do all the manouvers properly!

It's also got good feel, and I like it a lot already!

Not a major expense, but worth every penny!

If anyone is looking for a reasonably priced stick with loads of functions, this is it!

anyway, PP6 has just finished downloading, Nations2 is nearly done, so it's back into the air!

I have the same stick and love it. Much smaller and lighter than the MS stick and it does feel better.

I have the Extreme as well and would like suggestions on key mapping. I download one from the 3rd party list at the Logitech site, though it was created in mid 1999 and may be dated. Any suggestions?
