Best Joystick for Helicopters??

Recommended Posts

It appears my problem of keeping my Bell 206 level is due to my "self-centering joystick" causing me to keep forward pressure to maintain level flight. Can anyone suggest a good, fair-priced joystick that would by most realistic for the Dodosim 206? I was told in a post that a FFB with FFB turned off would do nicely. Is this the only kind that does not have a self-centering spring?? Thanks. Tom

For the best in helicopter controls I would go to simcontrols at www.simcontrol.co.uk/menuepage.htm ,they have a modular system designed for helicopters and used by the RAF.They also produce the superb "Ranger 5" system, an excellent piece of kit if you can afford it http://www.simcontrol.co.uk/ranger%20page.htm I still have a soft spot for my old MS sidewinder Force feedback 2 but I doubt if you can get hold of one very easily these days
