Five years ago I bought a Logitech Wingman Force 3D. It's served me VERY well, but the response isn't what it used to be. (you know, having to jam it on it's side several time to get any response?) I am wondering what quality joysticks are on the market now that won't break the bank.

Thanks for any advice,

What sort of functions and features are you looking for in a new joystick? Throttle(s), rudder, etc.
Any particular price range?

...after 5 years of continuous use, the Potentiometers are probably badly worn by now... ..!

I am very pleased with my Saitek Cyborg Evo Force twist Joystick which I have used daily, for a couple of years now, with no problems... ...!

It suits all my aircraft, from Microlights to Jumbo Jets!... ...!

I personally have the Saitek ST290 Pro, ($20 @ Walmart).... but I also have my $120 Saitek X52 that I love with my jumbo jets.
