Ergonomically really nice. Adjustable and comfortable.


Bad Points

Cheap rubbish. Doesn't work.


General Comments

Initially I thought I had a good, cheap stick for flight sims. The Saitek Cyborg Evo felt nicely weighted and smooth to use, not too heavy on the zero axis, but within days it had all gone wrong and gradually got worse and worse. It drifts to the left (by varying degrees) and does not centre correctly (changes zero point as it feels like it!) even with the so called fixed driver and auto-calibration, which made it worse. Had it apart to try to trim the pots, but they are fixed. Leave well alone and buy something decent. The old adage 'you get what you pay for' comes to mind.

    I have the exact same problem when using the Saitek Cyborg Evo game controller. It drifts to the left no matter what you do in the settings. As it's "auto calibrated" I can't make it have a fixed zero point either. In other words, this renders it useless. I hope someone will find a solution for this, as I love everything else about it.
