Flight Simulator Stuff

OK, I have just invested in a copy of MS flight SIM, and was wondering which joystick and or throttle combo people who use it would recommend.

I'm currently doing an ATPL integrated course, so I get plenty of "real" flying, but I'm using flight sim to practice instrument flying etc. For this I don't really need the joystick, but sometimes I like to just plug in the 172 and have a blast around.

Funds are pretty limited so am not looking for a top of the range piece of kit, just something that means I can control the A/C properly without the interminable lag I get when using the keyboard!

Any ideas as to make/model, and also where to buy would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers

Matt
