I got FC2 today, and I'm having fun, but I'm having some trouble navigating and using radar. When I'm flying I have no clue how to find other players or how to find airfields to land at without using the map, or labels. I basically have no idea how to play without labels and external views, and I don't know how to navigate to certain places like airfields. The only radar I kinda understand is the f-15, but sometimes when I try to lock on to a target it does nothing while other times I lock on and fire a missile and then I lose the lock for no apparent reason. This might have something to due with the fact that I don't know the differences between the missiles. Also if anyone has Xfire and would be willing to help me learn online please pm me.

I'm going to purchase my first joystick soon, but I'm having a hard time deciding which one to buy. My budget is only $40, so I'm thinking about buying either the T.1600m or the Logitech extreme 3D pro. If anyone has experience with these 2 joysticks please tell me how they compare, and if there are better joysticks around the same price please list them.
