Are the joysticks comfortable (in ergonomic terms) & interchangable, or do we have two right-handed sticks again?
I'm not familiar with that brand.

Yes they are right and left handed. Can't wait to use these things! (I am a Logitech fan boy)

I made it a point to try them out when More Robotics of Milwaukee came to Kokomo for a demo over the weekend. The joysticks are ambidextrous (i.e. left-right symmetrical) and don't feel different when held with each hand. They return to center with relatively strong force, and will likely need to be firmly mounted to a base in order to be comfortable to use. They're not as "smooth" around the center as the CH Flightsticks, but which is better is probably a matter of personal preference.

I don't think there's any mechanical calibration to get out of whack. That alone is going to make things a lot easier on the drivers.

I have a WAGO tool. It's a screwdriver but sharp enough to cut yourself with.
