If I were to get the Warthog...are the pedals necessary right away? Does the joystick twist? I'm going to have to line up purchases with paychecks so I won't be able to get it all at once. I've already decided to get the Track IR so that already 150 committed.

Just getting back into flight sim games and my old Sidewinder 2 is shot. Any advice on a good joystick for a beginner to get back into the genre? Most of my enthusiasm is to try, and possible buy, this game so something that would work well with helicopters is a major plus (Use of a gradual collective instead of a keyboard). Please just because I say beginner don't think I'm looking for something super simple. A joystick that I can use as I learn more and become a more advanced player would be great. I don't want to buy something then have to upgrade in a month. I also didn't want to invest the money without a little research first so telling me about your personal experiences with them would be nice too. Thanks in advance.
