You can use it and you DO NOT need it plugged into the Joystick, that is a myth. I just need a CH throttle to complete the Trifecta.

Not much of a learning curve. Where pedals shine, is lining up shots.

Only name I'd look for is Belkin. They have the best Quality. I use this http://www.google.com/products/catalog?hl=en&q=belkin+usb+hub&cid=436625872471767501&ei=0odUTKypLY_qNZCcxIoE&sa=title&ved=0CDcQ8wIwAzgA#p (http://www.google.com/products/catalog?hl=en&q=belkin+usb+hub&cid=436625872471767501&ei=0odUTKypLY_qNZCcxIoE&sa=title&ved=0CDcQ8wIwAzgA#p). If you have a laptop, take the top one off and gain 4.
