Keyboard over everything.

Currently, I use a Logitece 3d force feedback thingamajig.

Fun, but I am not really used to joysticks.

Logitech Wingman Extreme Game Pad. 10 buttons, glorius control. I have also used Keyboard and mouse for fs1 on a laptop (My those graphics where chunky on that rig, nothin but squares) both work well.

Microsoft Force Feedback Pro - The Original and Best. Perfect in every way (except for the power lead - the very small pin in the mains plug has snapped off and is wedged in my dad's FF Pro)

Mostly I use the Saitek X36 throtle & stick.

But every once and a while I get the urge for some forced feed-back, so I plug the old MS Sidewinder in.

I wish the X36 would come with forced feed-back though.

I use the wingman extreme digital 3D, but I dont like it as much as my old wingman interceptor...the interceptor fit my hands, the new digital is too big, and the way i rest my hand on the thing, i cant reach the hat switch...and I dont like the button placement...I think the wingman interceptor was the perfect joystick...all the buttons were excellent, and the throttle rocked...if only it had a twist axis and force feedback, i think it would have been my wife...
