Greetings every1 :)
Need advice on a Joystick that I'm cogitating on purchasing & thought it best to ask experienced gamers as to their knowledge of joysticks.
I've an opportunity to purchase a NEW Thrustmaster Top Gun
Afterburner w/USB Joystick which was used less than a week, it's
in good condition, I've seen it, but what do I know?
The person is moving & is selling the package deal for $40.00
which I believe I can get for $38. I've read up on this subject at
Thrustmaster & various other sites & the reviews are good, but
then if I were selling a product I too would rate it high & lower the
price.
Has any1 had any experience w/this product, what do u think of it
Ur learned advice & help is solicited. TY. :)
Cheers,
Cautious Happy1 :D

I think the stick you are talking about is the best mainstream stick I have used.
Only thing is, mine started spiking in the x axis after a period. I believe it can be fixed.
It's a really comfortable stick to use.

I use the Thrustmaster Top Gun Afterburner II. It's a really nice stick/throttle combo. I like the rudder rocker on the throttle much better than the Microsoft Sidewinder twisty stick rudder.
Almost new for $38 bucks? I'd say go for it.
