If it worked as well as the ol’ eraser mouse on a laptop then it could be pretty neat, but this is a poor implementation of that type of input. – Digital thruster hat on the throttle rather than analog. Also a minor annoyance, but I really prefer the finesse of an analogue stick instead of on 0% or 100% thrust in any direction.
