One is $60 and the other is $35.  Is there any difference other than the price?

Indian, here is a picture of the normal CombatStick.  Are all the buttons and hats in the same locations as yours?

 

Thanks!

Hey, Indian, what you doing with my stick, eh?  
BTW - It works great with the Throttle and Pedals PRO.

Combatstick, Janes Combatstick and the ForceFx all have the same button configuration I believe. Also I think the only button difference from above on the Fighterstick is that it has an 8 way hat for main hat an that it has a 4 way hat where button 2(thumb) is, and it's programable. It has been posted somewhere in this newsgroup, a link to show you how to convert your 4 way hat to 8 way hat on Combatstick, by taking the hat apart and removing some plastic to allow diagonal movement, and one of these days I might do it to my ForceFx.
