Need advice on flight controller purchase

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone.  Im finally about to be able to start FSX with a new computer.  I do not have any flight controllers anymore.  Can you all suggest a decent one for me that has all the functionality of yoke/rudder for a budget of $150?  I am not looking for the best and most cutting edge, just the best I can get for 150 or less.  

Thanks so much!

I used the Logitech 3D pro for years and they still make and sell it. i use a Yoke now but its a great and a cheap joystick. About US$40 the handle has a twist axis that you use for the rudder.

Thanks for your help guys! I was assuming it'd probably be one of those two.  I'm gonna save my money and get a good CH product setup one day with multi function controls but this will do for now.  Years ago when I was into FS9 I used a microsoft sidewinder, it was relatively cheap but a pretty good one.  We didnt have as many choices back then anyway.
