Video Game flight stick mods?

[djproben]

So after watching immuzikation's video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E447XeggqX8) I am interested in learning more about these video game flightsticks ... I don't play video games much so I really had no idea there were so many different flightstick options, many with arcade buttons. My question is, how easy of a mod is this? Do all these flightsticks connect via USB, and is it a simple process to translate whatever it is doing to MIDI?

Thanks - I just ordered a PS3 flight stick from amazon.com so we'll see how it goes I don't really need the extra arcade buttons since I already have a midifighter but I like the idea of being able to modify effects with a joystick

What did you have to do in Traktor to get it to notice the flightstick? I posted a question about this on another page and was told I was missing the equivalent of Ableton's "Remote On" command in Traktor, which would allow Traktor to see the data being channeled from the HID to MIDI software (I'm using Multicontrol on Mac OS X). (Here's the thread http://www.djtechtools.com/forum/showthread.php?t=11503). Thanks!
