I don’t mind controllers at all but they don’t seem to handle flight sims that well.

A fellow simmer made a joke few weeks ago about real aircraft not having console controllers for a reason. Over 120-odd years of aviation. the yoke, joystick  and pedals have proven themselves to be the most rational and ergonomic means to control an aircraft.

I am sure that some of us can be relatively proficient at using keyboard and mouse or a twisting joystick and will be with console controller. My conviction is that, at the end of the day, they miss something, precision and feeling  of what driving an aircraft is.

you can already try a controller right now

I should have made it clear I was using it for awhile. They should add an auto-rudder (the current auto-rudder only applies to ground navigation).
