Jeez, with Bubbalou talking about CH Flightstick Pros and TSRs, you'd think we were all playing D1. :P

Actually it looks like CH makes a 3 axis joystick, with twist. Its in their OEM products section. It looks like it might cost a fortune, and be a bit of a project to get going on USB to boot (they have a kit for that). But durability is off the chart, what with a 1/2 steel shaft as the core of the stick. I dunno if the 'multi function handle' joystick is one of their Hall effect models, but if it is the eletrical parts have 1,000,000 hours mean time between failure. That's a lot of descent!

They used to have a 4 axis Gamestick 3D(twist) and a 3axis Gamestick.. and discontinued it...
(on clearance at their site)
Because entry level joysticks have a high rate of return from user abuse.
