I have a laptop with USB port only. I want a joystick input to work with FMS. See several on E-Bay but don't know what will work with FMS. Do NOT want to interface with transmitter. External Joystick only.
Any Recommendations on brands / model joysticks for FMS?
Thanks

You will need a 4-axis joystick. Typically, they come with a twist handle and additional throttle slider. Any make/model will do, it's up to you how much you want to pay. No need for any force feedback, as FMS does not have support for this.
Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.

Dual Joystick

Many folks use a USB dual analog joystick that cost from $10 - $20 depending on where you buy them. It works great.
