Sharky Extreme heeft een vergelijking van de Saitek Cyborg 2000 en Thrustmaster Top Gun USB pretpookjes neer gemikt. Van deze twee ziet de Cyborg er absoluut het coolst uit, toevallig wordt deze stok ook als beste bevonden:
Overall the excessive stiffness of the Top Gun USB forces us to shoot that Maverick down. Any flight stick that takes enough effort to cause soreness is a pain in the butt. We don't want it and we can't recommend it for anyone but a WWF pro-wrestler. As for the Cyborg 2000, we find it very compelling, but the hat switch problem stops us from recommending it whole-heartedly. If you don't care about a hat switch go ahead and buy the Cyborg, it should make you very happy. It is better than many joysticks in the $80 range. But if you need a hat switch, we can't recommend the Top Gun USB or the Cyborg 2000, so you're on your own.
