It's almost forgotten that back in the day there were controllers made specifically for games like Descent.
I used a Microsoft Sidewinder 3d Pro for this and other flight sim games. The throttle, plus twisting joystick, and extra buttons on the base gave you just about everything you needed.

That stick was excellent for Descent.
