I have the Logitech 3D pro and i feel like you have to move it too much before it starts registering anything, even with the deadzones at 0% ingame.
Ive heard alot recommending the Thrustmaster T16000M joystick, and ive seen some use the duo setup of this joystick.

Yes you can.

You can do 2 joysticks 3, 4, you get the idea.

I run a fanatec and a Thrustmaster Worthog HOTAS (both bit over kill for FS19 but I do alot of sim flying and racing to). I have assigned front loader tools, cranes, forestry machines, fork lifts, etc to be used via my joystick. Along with Sim dashboard, and TrackIR, makes you really get into it.

I use to run the Logitech 3D pro, like 10 years ago! I didn't have any issues with it. In fact a friend of mine is still using it today. I do not know the other joysticks. You didn't skimp on a steering wheel so why not look into a Thrustmaster? I would look on youtube for reviews of those joystick.

Hope this helps.

Good luck mate. It is a mission to find the correct assignment. Look at the keyboard binding for the action you want, it will make it easier when you assign it in the joystick option. If you get stuck let me know.

Cheers

can i maybe just ask what buttons do you map on your wheel and what buttons do you map on your joystick ...

On my wheel I have cruise on/off, cruise increase, decrease. Indicator left, right. Not much

Joystick, lift function up, dwn, lft, rght. HAT switch for other loader/skidsteer functions and roation.

I use Sim Dashboard for all other functions. I'm sure you would have heard of Sim Dashboard?

i did not hear of sim dashboard mate. And also never used it
i use Z1 sim wheel or simhub on my lcd screen

z1 : https://www.z1simwheel.com/dashboard/screen.cfm
simhub : https://www.simhubdash.com/?sfw=pass1638172987

dont know if that is the same as your software...
Do you use that on phone or ... ??
thx for the great info always :-)

Yeah both of those are great stuff. great for racing.

I failed to mention Sim Dashboard is a APP for Android systems only. You can make custom panels or download them. Here is a video that shows a little about it.

a shame that i cant use it on my lcd screen, because thats a touch screen also.

Now that would be pretty cool.
