Joystick circuits are dirt simple.  What makes the difference is just
what feature set you want.  You can build one as simple as one dual
op amp and a few resistors.

But, if you're going to all the trouble, why not make something with
some control so you do not have to do external processing.

So, I'd want:

-> a +/- bias control with a center detent pot for each axis
-> and a gain control for each axis.
-> + and - outputs for each axis.

The ideal circuit would accept joystick pots of most any size without
changing the circuit.  And, you have to decide if you want to deal
with the pushbuttons.

While it seems a waste, you can always use a pair of pedal
interfaces.

So, whadda ya want?
