First time in three years I've heard of one lasting more than 4 months. Still not a great track record.
A Rook who first flew 09/26/03 at the age of 13, has been a GL in 10+ Scenarios, and was two-time Points and First Annual 68KO Cup winner of the AH Extreme Air Racing League.

Like you need another voice on the matter, but here goes.

Logitech sucks.

38ruk, that's what I had.   The Bluish one.   I'm on my 3rd X45, I wish I would have kept the Logitech.

what everyone else said.

When my MS sidewinder FFB2 got all busted up after about 3 years of hard usage.  The next best one i've found compared to that is the saitek cyborg evo force.  This one is still a bit fragile over time.  As you have stated that you are a light player it will be fine.

I fully accepted the need for a quality stick with AH and now have CH stick and pedals and couldnt be happier with them.  (hopefully they last as long as everyone says they will)

Its hard to judge because the more you play the quicker they will break!
