I have the FFB2. It's old but still very accurate/precise (since the force feedback circuit has to actively recalculate the centre position of the stick).
The only problem is that you can feel the teeth of the gears - not as smooth as a very-well-lubricated spring centering mechanism.
I suggest you buy something like Thrustmaster's T16000M, since it's relatively new, and accessible.
Don't buy Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog because it's mimicking a real A-10 stick - good hydraulic feeling but the springs in the trigger and buttons are so strong (you don't want to accidentally fire a missile on a real A-10!) that you can't fire as quickly as using a "game" stick.
Or if you want to fly a Galaxy in a fancy way...
