Hi,I've been using a Xbox360 controller for a while but it does not work good with FSX. Controlling the plane with this is a pain. So, I would like to buy a better controller... and this is where I need your help! What would be the best controller? I was looking at the "Saitek X65 Pro Flight Control"Does is worth it's money? Is there any controller that you would suggest? Thanks guys!

You know it looks good to me. Never tried it.But, if they would make a left handed version, I might be interested.Being left handed every joystick on the market is made for right handed people.

Thanks bwallis!I just find an alternative: http://ncix.com/products/?sku=26397&vpn=PZ44&manufacture=SaitekAnyone try this one before?With me xbox360 controller (not suited for flightsim, Iknow), I have a hard time to keep my climbing / descend steady.... So I'm really looking into a controller that can climb / descend steady!Thanks guys, appreciated.

The first thing you need to decide is whether you want a yoke or a joystick, then look at different models of the type you want. I'm new to flight sims, but my understanding is that the yoke is more commonly found in GA and many of the airliners, while the stick is generally used in combat planes, helicopters, and Airbuses. But there are exceptions.
