It's like what, $130 dollars? Also two handed.

http://www.saitek.com/italy/images/product/pcp/st50.jpg something like that will do just fine.
you cant use two hands at once? you got problems.

btw ebay. I got myine for $61USD + shipping
I think a two handed joystick is a little too much, sometimes when getting a jet you want a quick take off (To avoid being raped in the hanger/M95'd out or whatever else can be thrown your way) and pulling down two controls to take off sounds time consuming, that being said I suppose you've found a way to make this quick?

Perhaps for a flight sim, but BF2? Meh, I think it's a little too much for flying.

If it works for you however, GL.

Left hand is throttle, move forward for more back for less. put in middle for no throttle. It takes off just as fast as mouse and keyboard. Its a really fun experience I must say (yes HAWX will be just as much fun)

That was my first joystick. It was great while it lasted, ubut after it starts pulling to the side its fubar English translation: Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition You  cant recalibrate, no matter what you try... its broke, have to buy a new one.

I wouldn't recommend the saitek cyborg evo.  I've got one and it's a piece of shit.  The tracking is bad (has a huge deadzone set if I want it to not drift) and it just feels really cumbersome to use.  Someone at work has got a logitec 3d pro and it feels a lot more nimble & responsive, but I've heard the build quality isn't the greatest and a lot of them end up having tracking issues.

if your want a good tweaking program try  DXtweak2. you can fully adjust deadzone and other properties.

Thanks but I gave up trying to use that joystick.  I much prefer using kb & mouse because it's comfortable and I know I'll never be a really good pilot so I'm not too fussed now

You have to learn the rules of the game and then you have to play better than anyone else.
