my wingman force 3d was 17 bucks on ebay about 6 months ago... Haven't used it much because I haven't flown a lot lately, other than being FFB its an okay stick, I'd reckon the ST190 or Logitech wingman 3d non FFB wich there seem to be a few for $1.99 on ebay.... have a look around!

Force feedback sucks in my opinion... ruins the game to me, because the forces are realistic etc... and they are over done in FS so it sucks. You just get a feather joystick with no resistance that you can fly around with (Very nice for movements)

If you're looking to spend around $100 on something, get what I have, the Saitek X52 Flight Control System. Totally worth it, it's an amazing stick.
