Hardware & Technical Phantom Hawk

Speedlink has a fairly low budget flightstick called the Phantom Hawk.
Can't find any reviews on the net.

Anyone on the Elite forum who has tried this controller?

I would miss the 2 sticks on the GPX xbox controller but it looks like it might be great value for money for playing ED.

Came across it myself, also interested to know.
If you get a reply, pls let me know.

If I find anything, i'll do the same.
Thanks.

I'd be interested too, but I have read reviews, so it does look nice:
- Should be quite precise after some tweaking
- Includes a small "thumb" throttle at the side, has Z-Axis Support with good modulation
- Seems to hold quite well on the table (though not perfect)
- Does not seem to be well suited for smaller hands
- Keys at the bottom difficult to reach
- No information about long-time stability, performance and wear

I'm not sure so far if I go for Gamepad (which I prefer, but I'm long searching for a precise Gamepad now) or a Joystick (I used to have those but that's 20 years ago...). So for just trying out a Joystick this one seems to be quite right.

Anyone using this joystick? Does it actually have force feedback? That's what the produce page says ("Force vibration for the ultimate gaming experience"), but it's odd given that other current joysticks don't offer this option, regardless of price.
