 Fast delivery, great product January 3, 2009

A great value and an essential for any realistic fighter sim (e.g. Falcon 4.0: Allied Force). But consider the CH Products Fighterstick -- you may find that the added realism the Fighterstick provides is worth the extra 50 or so dollars.
Excellent as always December 12, 2008

I used to have the older version of this stick made to plug into a game port on the sound card. USB port makes it a lot easier to install. Make sure you calibrate before using. The previous version has taken a ton of use and is VERY reliable. I'm sure this one will perform just as well.
well made and accurate November 5, 2008

i've had the Combatstick for about a month now. My microsoft sidewinder finally gave out after 7 years. the combat stick is very easy to use, and setup. I have very large hands so i like its size alot, but people with small hands would have a hard time reaching all the buttons. overall i really enjoy it.

As a licensed pilot, I never got used to the unnatural motion of joysticks that use a twist handle for rudder functions in flight sims. When I finally gave in to the purchase of a set of CH-Pro rudder pedals, and had to replace my twitchy and inaccurate joystick, I re-visited the CH product line of joysticks and ended up purchasing the 568 Combat Stick. This is a smooth, rock-solid product with enough handle functions to satisfy most who fly propeller sims. Well-built. A quality feel. No centering issues. Having two axis-trim-wheels built into the base is a plus. Those with very small hands might feel they have to stretch to reach all the buttons on the large handle. If you elect to use the suggested CH Control Manager software that many pilots use with this product, expect a challenge, though there is plenty of online help available. Not flashy looking like many of its competitors, but a rock-solid and smoothly operating product that feels like it can go the distance.

I have not had great success with this joystick yet. I am a MAC user and trying to play Flyboys. The major problem is that I can not get the sensitivity adjusted to a usable point. It is either so sensitive that a slight twitch in my hand sends the control to the max. Or it is so non-responsive that I move the stick half way to the limit before it starts to move the indicator and then when it does move it jumps to the max. I have not completely given up yet and will keep playing with it.
