I'm using this joystick with my X-Plane 9 flight simulator on my iMac. The basic design is sound but there are some issues with setting up and using the joystick. In the X-Plane 9 program one can assign different functions to different buttons, triggers etc on a joystick. Unfortunately, most of these assignments are not possible as this joystick with its 13 buttons makes the assignments not the program. There are a lot of buttons on this device that therefore remain unusable. For example, (unless I'm doing something wrong) I'm not able to control the flaps with a button on the joystick as I am not able to program it to do so. (If anyone out there in the flight simulator universe has a suggestion, please be my guest.)
All in all this joystick seems to be well made, reasonably inexpensive, comfortable to hold and use and is able to control basic flight inputs (roll, pitch and yaw, trim) easily.Get more detail about Logitech Extreme 3D Pro Joystick (Silver/Black).
