Okay, here's the deal. First of all, I want to know if it's possible to link two joysticks into one input to essentially create a dual-joystick control system. Second, I want to know how one could customize this. Third, does anyone know of one-axis joysticks around anywhere?

Thanks!

first, yes it is possible to link 2 joysticks to one port
you need a joystick spilter cable, you should be able to get that from Radio Shack.

Secondly, to customise this, you need to have a programable joystick,such as the Thrustmasters, some M$ ones and a few others.

As for a one axis joystick,you need a throttle for this. Thrustmaster FCS is one.

now back to programing my new F-15E Talon multifunction Joystick and SFS Throttle....
