Reddit reviews Saitek Cyborg Command Unit

Not a lefty here, but there may be a few gamepads you could take advantage of. I haven't used them, so I cant endorse them, but take a look at these:

Logitech G13

Saitek Cyborg Command Unit

I work with AutoCAD and I have an old game pad that I have set up with all the most comon commands I need. Easy to setup, and with a bit of practice, made my job a lot faster and easier.

I am aware of this setup. Shame I don't own this specific device. Still, I've tried it with a saitek command unit (similar idea, worse execution than G13). I didn't use it for long and I didn't deem it worthy for inclusion in the list. The main reasons were:

1. Thumbstick has 2 axes, 3D mouse has 6. That's 4 more axis that can be used for rotation, zoom and elevation and I love to have these axis on hand.
   
   
2. Thumbstick puts a lot of stress on my thumb, far more than the 3D mouse does. It killed the fun for me.
   
   Actually, if you don't mind thumb stress and own a G13, that may be really great. After all 1) it's all highly personal and subjective and 2) I didn't claim to try it all, so maybe it's the real 11/10 for somebody.

Keep in mind that there are more than just this one on the market as well.
Theres the Saitek Cyborg
The Razer Orbweaver, Tartarus and Nostromo
The Delux T9
As well as The Warrior Gaming Keypad
Among others that appear and disappear from the market from time to time. It's all about what you are looking for in a game keypad.

I've got one of these if you're interested. :)

There's a bunch of decent left-handed gamepads out there, but I don't think any of them have an analog thumb stick.
