During my time at PC Gamer, I've had the pleasure of testing some very expensive flight sim gear. That's not to start off this review with a brag, more to say that it's generally a pretty pricey hobby. A satisfying one, no doubt, but I wouldn't blame you if you looked at some of the full-on sim setups on the market and baulked at the astonishing prices.
Trouble is, it's difficult to know whether it's worth spending a lot of moolah on something you might not enjoy, or perhaps more accurately, might want to approach from a more casual perspective. Cheap flight sticks are available, of course, but it's difficult to find something serviceable for around $100 that might wet your whistle—and give you an indicator as to whether it might be worth investing in some premium flight sim gear in future.
