The "Hog" has a lots of good looking buttons, but, it does not simulate few of the most basic behaviors of the real stick. The Hog lacks FF, thus, I did not buy it.
I don't know how the real stick work in F-16, therefore I can not comment on X-65. But, let me remind you, that so far, none of the simulators we play in FC and DCS uses pressure sensitive stick. Thus, the X-65 is a product that is somewhat lost in time.
Sooner or later (I have a feeling it will be soon) somebody will make a good FF stick. Then I'll buy it. Until then, X52-pro rules ...
Back to Cobra stick. Well, I wish that it has FF.
