Looking for a simple joystick

Hello. I would like to find a small joystick to play the few space/flight sim games I have for my PC. I used to have a kick ass little 2button 2 axis CH Mach I that was small then an old atari console controller and exceptionally accurate. Unfortunately it is like 8 years old and doesn't work correctly. I want a similar replacement, but everytime I look at an EB at the mall or Comp USA (or similar store) the only sticks that have a giant two hand flight yoke stick wannabees that cost between $30 and $150 dollars and have like 15 buttons on them. I don't want one of those behemoths, you have to exagerate all your movements to fly around and that exageration makes for very difficult precise targeting, flying, etc.

Does anyone know of a company that still makes simple PC joysticks?

Thanks

 
I have been using my Flightstick for years and find it very reliable. I think it cost around 20 or 30 bucks.

I use it for both flight Sims and wit my Grand Prix game with great success. It is just the regular one not the Flightstick Pro.
