Default Force Feedback Joysticks


I would like to buy a joystick...i don't know any force feedback models. does anybody know any from logitech or something reputed like that? seeing that sidewinder doesnt come out anymore....plus i'd like to know the price of the model also. I looked at the attack 3 from logitech but it comes w/o force feedback and force feedback is essential. plz help me out.

Rashi Peripherals used to have Logitech Extreme 3D joysticks with FF. Should cost you around INR 4500/-

PS: BTW, for flight simulation, a twist handle stick (for rudder functionality) is more desirable than force feedback. It's more realistic as, in real life flying (with fly-by-wire systems) you don't get any feedback via the yoke or stick. So why have it in simulation. Also, centering a force feedback stick is a pain, and affects level trimmed flight.

EDIT: You should be looking at Saitek HOTAS systems (X45 or X52) for ultimate flight simming nirvana. But both do not have FF.
