All the buttons feel great. nice and clicky

The throttle's front buttons are loose and poorly aligned with the switches underneath them, so they don't click unless pressed at just the right angle

But the X56 has more than enough buttons on the stick and throttle and two very needed joystick type sticks that really set this thing apart

Those with smaller hands may have a bit of trouble reaching the top buttons of the

I find that three of the buttons aren't working on the stick, the trigger which is a huge one the mouse pointer button and there also a button on the base of the stick, nothing at all

hated the button placement on the thrustmaster, and the x52 pro, while it had great buttons, was a crap stick

Throttle is smooth, buttons work, software integration is seamless

On another note, if logitech had simply taken the joystick from this x56 (which works really well) and the throttle from the x52 pro (which also works really well, even though it has some weird button placement, and a useless screen) They would have had a decent, reliable product
