I have had several different joysticks through the years. The bearing on this one is excellant with just the right amount of resistance. If it only had a mixture and prop control as well. The Throttle Control also has the best bearing I have ever felt. Again, excellant resistance and very smooth. Stays where you put it. As far as cordless goes. I cannot perceive any difference from any of my joysticks with USB cable connection and wireless. No muss.

The construction, hand-fit and sturdiness of the Freedom 2.4 are better than good - they're a 5-star deal. I really like the feel of the joystick. BUT, there are 4 buttons on the base frame and 4 on the stick top that are identified only by numbers on a flimsy sheet and no more. What a pain in the pants seam. Without instructions with the joystick and with no apparently available instructions at the Logitech web site, I have a joystick that turns, dives and rolls okay (the throttle is also okay), but the other buttons don't do a darn thing. Maybe I'm the Geico cave man when it comes to computer stuff, but neither am I the talking salamander either. The unit didn't come with instructions on how to get the buttons to control other features. Maybe the whole problem is that I'm using Vista??
Works Great! w/ Windows 7

Im using this on my new Windows 7 gaming pc and its working great. I've been playing it with FSX and some MechWarrior and its very responsive and programming the buttons as you desire is not difficult. Sometimes I wish it was a little more heavy, but it works great none the less.
