My last joystik was chewed to pieces by the dog! Will check those above as will need to get one!
I have a saitek cyborg thingy....only problem is the spring in the middle is a bit too strong for making very fine movements...
squashed it up with some cable ties...job jobbed

Setting aside the discussion of which type of controls you'd like to see implemented, can I get some advice amongst the joystick users as to their favourite hardware?
The trouble with joystick control is how well it works with a specific game.
I like the idea of flying with a joystick personally. I like having a throttle control but most space games seem to be geared towards mouse (on the PC) and without using a mouse I find you are at a disadvantage.
Mate, give me a joystick with complete axis control including throttle, and Track IR; I will destroy anyone with a mouse.
I'd prefer joystick (something highly programmable with far too many buttons) over mouse - but whatever works best in the end.
No TrackIR for me though - If it ain't Oculus Rift, it ain't what I'm looking for (Dont want to steer the ship with my head, I want to be able to look over my shoulder).
Some great suggestions here guys. Mmmmmm, those HOTAS setups do look very tempting
TrackIR is for looking around, not steering. I don't think it would work well at all if you tried to use it as a control method.
