want to find joystick with separate throttle

Hello all, I am a fan of simulation games, especially flying ones. I always want to have a joystick with separate throttle, just like a real airplane cockpit. Most of the joysticks that I know are the ones that with small slider-type throttle embedded into the joystick where you can only put one finger or two to control the throttle. IMO those kind of joystick sucks. They do not represent a true flying experience (unless there is a type of plane that has game/USB port in it and you can use those joystick to control it 🙂 ). I want a real throttle, the one that I can grab using my full hand, just like a real plane throttle. Do anyone of you know what type of joystick that match my description ? And if able, I prefer Logitech, because maybe it is the only brand that I can find in my place 🙁. I have tried looking at their official website, but there is none, which I do not believe because a company that famous does not produce that kind of joystick. Thank you all and sorry if my english is bad. 😀

I have the X45, it's decent for the price, but it's literally shown its age over the 3 years I've owned it. It's very tight and not nearly as responsive as it once was. The build quality isn't up to par. The Cougar HOTAS is a much better solution if you'v got the cash from what I understand. Saitek also has a new X52 which might be higher quality, but it looks like its from a spaceship (moreso than the X45) and kinda retarded.

Logitech does not make that kind of equipment. Can't you just order something online? You get better prices online.

Yup, something like that.

So, logitech really does not make it. 🙁 About the online option, I'm afraid I can only buy something online if the seller is in the same country as I am. To buy something from different country is very difficult for me.
