Hardware & Technical Logitech Extreme 3D Pro? - NOT FORCE 3D PRO

There are a number of us using this Joystick. I mapped the buttons manually to suit my play style, however since acquiring TrackIR and VoiceAttack I find that I need far fewer buttons.
The joystick works fine as a low cost option.
I would suggest going into the options, and just experiment to find a setup that suits you.

I guess the version I have is an old build as well, someone said this joystick is not officially support in later builds? Guess I have to wait till the 25th.
yeah i use that stick, to and love it. all custom mapped by now, would be of little use/sense to anyone.
also use trackIR and G710+ keyboard + G602 mouse. way enough to handle ed =)
I use the Extreme 3D pro. It has been mentioned by lots of people when Frontier asked for what types of Joystick people use. It was also prominent in the SC video in the office (on a shelf).
You can fairly easily set up the joystick in custom. I can put some details up if you like? I think you may find it'll get added to to the list at the top later.

why it is my choice in no small part. the utterly functional* "design" of the more pro sticks hurt my aesthetics

I also use the extreme 3d pro and I am very, very happy with it. It has taken all morning but I have finally managed to map my nostromo n50 and the extreme 3d pro to something close to what I am happy with. I too plan to get a head tracker of some kind which will finish of my control setup nicely..... looking forward to using it all in earnest when the beta goes live.
I use the Razer Nostromo as a left hand controller. The throttle is on the keypad over there, with the 50% and 0% settings.
Cool!
Wow, you're welcome!
I also have the Logitech E3DPro, however I have noticed that both the roll and pitch rates on the joystick are the same no matter how much the stick is deflected. As an example if i lightly pitch the joystick up in game, the pitch rate is same as if I had fully deflected the stick in that direction. The problem for me is that i am not able to accurately track targets without over shooting. I have tried adjusting the null zones in game with any success. I have also tried recalibrating the joystick this makes no difference either.
Does anybody else have this problem?
I am running ED on Windows 7 in Bootcamp on a Macbook Pro.

I use that stick and It works fine. My top tip is to set up pitch/roll/yaw using the "axis" settings, rather than push forward for down, pull back for up, push right for right, twist left... You get the idea.
BTW, I hope the coolie hat will be supported eventually. One of the reasons I chose that model (besides yaw and lots of buttons) is I thought it would be awesome for fine targeting adjustments.
