I decided to make a quick joystick tutorial for you guys and anyone who could find it helpful I did this because i was trying to help a friend to set the joystick but there was a retard on the server killing us and fucking around so, here everyone can read it nicely. Note the this tutorial was mainly focused for the Logitech Extreme 3D Pro which i have, but maybe it could be useful for other joysticks as well, i hope so. =========================================================================================================================== Logitech Extreme 3D Pro USB Joystick It's an extremely confortable joystick with plenty of buttons and perfect for flying in BF2. However, it's still a cheap joystick, but a good cheap one.

This is a really great and confortable joystick, i wish that logitech makes a 2nd revision or something because i would be pleased knowing that htis joystick will work for a loooong time.

The thing that i hate most is that Logitech hasn't done anything about it i mean, i don't know maybe doing a second revision of the joystick? It's not gonna be too hard to figure out what whas the problem in the current design and these joysticks are good enough (in confort) to make a second revision.

I could be wrong but i think this is the best joystick available from logitech, unless i'm missing a new one better in all ways.
