joystick

I've been using MSFS 2002 to keep my instrument scan up (and sometimes
let my wife fly it; she's my "pinch hitter"). I have an el-cheapo
joystick which is now insisting that the nose shall always be pointed
down. It's a mouse systems bogeyman, and is pretty terrible (though the
price was right).

So, I'm in the market for a new flight controller.

1: Any reccomendations for a good, inexpensive stick?

2: Is force feedback worth the extra money?

3: Is there any reason to consider a yoke?

4: Yes, I know pedals would increase the realism, but that's not really
my aim. That said, are pedals worth it just to keep my scan up to snuff?

5: This is posted in r.a.p only. Is it worth a visit to r.a.sim?
