Customer Reviews:

Good Product.......2007-05-27

The easiset joystick I have ever flew with. The control is perfect. Highly recommended.

Very solid stick.......2007-03-10

Bought this together with the rudders and throttle after many months of research. I'd previously had Thrustmaster F16 FLQS and F16 TQS and the FLQS had lost accuracy very quickly and didn't impress, so I wasn't in a hurry to buy the Cougar. I'd had a CH Flightstick years ago and still remembered that as a solid, no-nonsense controller that worked everytime.

The new generation of CH Products is just as good. This stick will last for a very long time, is solidly constructed and easy to program (just press the button on the controller and enter the key that you want to assign to it).

I haven't fully exploited the capabilities yet - as with all of these HOTAS sticks, it takes some time working out what you want to assign to each button. Perhaps some pre-supplied maps would have been nice.

So you want a good stick?.......2007-02-07

This is a very good stick. Solidly built and the only things keeping this from a 5 star rating are these problems:

1. If you have never used the software for programming this stick or other CH Products before, be prepared to spend some time figuring it out. It is a real pain and there are easier ways of getting the results that you want. Read the CH forums for information on programming this stick.

2. The pinkie finger button near the bottom of the handle can be inadvertently pressed in the heat of combat. As a result, I found it better for myself not to program any actions to it.

3. The elevator and aleiron trim wheels are not easy to use in flight if your right handed as you have to reach across with your left hand to set the desired trim.

Other than these three items, this is the best stick I've ever used for air combat sims.

Great construction but could be more comfortable........2007-01-04

The Fighterstick seems to be more substantial and of higher quality than other joysticks on the market. Software installation was easy and without problems. My only complaint is that the stick could be a little more comfortable with a larger palm support at the bottom. Otherwise I would give it 5 stars.

I started with this sticks lesser sibling, 3 buttons and a hat on the stick, you,ve seen it. I don't know what happened to it somewhere between 95and 97 but let me jut say< CH is the King of flight controls
