Options for a small analog trigger stick.

OK I need to make a decision and I need some input. I have sat on this long enough.

I have my 4 U360s but I need 2 analog sticks so I can print my CP design and get to work.

I have not found much I like. I want an analog stick with a topfire and trigger minimum. A few extra buttons would be fine too. But I dont want a large tron style stick that will overwhelm the CP and make getting to spinners behind it an issue. Four to five inches tall above the surface would be perfect.

Now I dont mind spending money but I cant wrap my mind around the HAPP B-8 http://www.happcontrols.com/joysticks/95025100.htm $300 for what? For that I could get an entire Thrustmaster cougar set http://www.thrustmaster.com/product.aspx?ProductID=11&PlatformID=5 and it already is USB encoded. Aside from finding a way to mount it, which might be difficult, the only reason i haven't used those is they are monsters, if I did it would be the only thing the cp was for. Not that there is anything wrong with that. I have been a Thrustmaster owner for over a decade and love their products. I own a cougar and it is the BEST flightstick made my man ( not installed in a military aircraft ). Also on the B-8 I cant find a schematic with sizes. I think it is on the tall side but I dont know how much.

This happ Atari would be fine http://www.happcontrols.com/joysticks/95017200x.htm but again so much money for so little. And again does anyone know how tall this one is?

HAPP - Tron style http://www.happcontrols.com/joysticks/50997000.htm is just to big, this is what I am trying to avoid.

This I am leaning toward http://www.happcontrols.com/joysticks/95006500.htm again it looks to be 6 inches tall but could be deceiving. Opinions on this model? Anyone own one?

I will throw out the guard trigger stick http://www.happcontrols.com/joysticks/95092300r.htm I assume this is no smaller than the others.

Also each has 3 flavors from HAPP which should I be getting to interface to a third party usb interface board?

Now on th Swana. They have 3 sticks that might fit the bill

Does anyone own on of these? How do they feel? Height? Anyone know a site where I can get more details on these products?

And lastly can anyone suggest any better products?
