I had the same Logitech joystick man, it was awful, I tried the X52 at a friends house and it was muuuuuccchhh better but then I heard about their reliability problems and decided to buy the CH Products joystick even though it didn't look as cool as the Saitek, I'm glad I did because the CH it's amazing, it's a little bit more expensive but it's made in the USA and the quality and programming software are the best.
