Just wanted to chime in on the X-65F.
I've had mine for about 9 months and have been lucky that its been drama free. I am however getting a bit paranoid seeing some horror stories associated with its technical support. My only issue is the throttle mini-stick is absolute garbage (as with all Saitek's mini-sticks). The rest of it works flawlessly for me after using the beta drivers.
The actual Force Sensing part of the stick is an acquired taste, you will either love it or hate it. For my part, I love the almost telepathic precision I can get from it and the ability adjust the sensitivity on the fly is just icing on the cake.
So the take away here is, when it works you will be hard pressed in MY opinion to get more precise HOTAS, that said you will have a lingering thought in your head as to when the thing is going to break on you.
