What brand and model of joystick would you recommend with this game? i.e. for MAC. All the ones I've been finding are for PC.

if you're using a mac laptop to play this game X-plane 10 . i believe the joysticks you found might work on the mac just give it a try & see what happens . but the joysticks only for PC & not MAC you discovered are not compatible with your mac then just play the x-plane 10 without a joystick . Cause believe me it's better that way .

I'm using an old school Microsoft Force Feedback 2, with no issues. The stick twist which works for rudder. Imac 27 inch 2013.

I bought the one that was recommended on the Xplane site at the time. It has some minor issues. Check some gaming sites and ask there.

I own this mouse and can't seem to get the 4th mouse button to work. The MS website does not list a Mac compatible driver:http://tinyurl.com/8mpsoom

If you're using a mac, download bootcamp it should work, as for how well it works, i do not know how to translate mac specs into pc counterparts, it is controller compatible i have used xbox 360 wired and ps3 controllers, if for some reason it does not recognize your controller try http://pinnaclegameprofiler.com/ beware after the free trial it costs money.

A mouse works just fine. I have never used a "joystick" so I don't know if it would work or not.

Manufacturer does not seem all that interested in supporting games, a mistake IMHO, as it's a great controller for a few existing and many more upcoming titles. Fortunately some dedicated users have provided a solution that will work with any game supporting a conventional joystick. Search for an open source utility called vJoy and install it in combination with another utility, Sx2vJoy. Configure via the latter and you're all set. Original drivers are not required. The device itself is very well made and well worth the hassle.

I bought the Mac version originally by mistake and my Windows computer was not able to recognize it properly. I returned it for the PC version and it worked perfectly the first time. I'm guessing the only difference is the driver support but either way you need the Mac version for Macs and the Windows version for Windows.

I sent mine back - upon consultation with the Iris people they seem to have no intention of making a Mac version. Their marketing needs to make it more clear that this mouse is not usable with Macs.

For all you mac people here, i suggest downloading ControllerMate, which i was able to configure to support most of the special keys (sometimes with my own scripts rather than the intended purpose). Its not free, but its worth it to have this sexy keyboard work properly with my mac

I use a LOGITECH EXTREME PRO. It is a joystick that is around $30. Google it to see what it looks like. There are much better and more expensive yokes and joysticks out there, but if you are just starting out, this is a good one to use.

Sorry, no drivers and no support for Mac from logitech across most if not all of their line. I'm afraid you will have a hard time finding an affordable stick that will support Mac, I'd suggest using Bootcamp and running Windows for gaming.

Is it a surprise that they don't (and won't) support Macs. I have both Mac and PC computers, because there just are not Mac owners out there to justify a company doubling their software budget to support both platforms. I use this on my PC and it is worth its weight in gold

Thank you for your email! We will be shipping a FixMeStick for Mac this month (May, 2014). There is more information available on the Kickstarter web site. I can't just include a link to the FixMeStick for Mac because Amazon doesn't allow links in these responses ;) Please don't hesitate if I can be of further assistance. Best, - Marty

I have one with the RED trigger button and one with a gray trigger button. So I don't know which is the latest version. It is my understanding that Microsoft quit making joysticks several years ago. I also have 2 THRUSTMASTER T.1600M joysticks and they are better than my Microsoft FORCE FEEDBACK 2 joysticks in my opinion. Although I love the Microsoft joysticks. The THRUSTMASTER T.1600M joysticks do not require a separate power cord or installation CD. And they work really great. Best of luck.

Yes, it works perfectly on a Mac. I tried it with OpenEmu which allows you to map the buttons. I only have the three button controller to test, though.

I mostly use it on PC, but sometimes PS3 and I've never run into a game it doesn't "work" on. That being said, the L1 and L2 buttons are not very conveniently placed. If those buttons are used much for Disney Infinity, you might consider an arcade stick with an 8-button layout instead.

I will say no joystick pad. Installed a few months ago. Recently installed 6-22mm model with no control pad.
