I bought this to use in Elite Dangerous and it's freaking amazing. Very comfortable, the base is solid and doesn't wiggle/move no matter how violent I am with the sticks. My ONLY complaint would be that it could use a few more buttons on the Joystick, like where your thumb comes down on the support, and maybe a pinky button. But for 45 dollars you just cant beat it. Using Voice Attack to fill the gaps works great. ..
