Its damn hard to center it, so you either have to run the joystick calibration routine (Alt+C) multiple times or just adjust your flying to the constant "drift". Other than that, I've been using the 360 gamepad to good effect.
It's a bit touchy to center on a small target but otherwise works really well
Install vJoy and use Universal Joystick Remapper to take the 360 controller input and send it to the vJoy virtual joystick. This way you can set up dead zone and remap axes if desired. Just ensure that TIE Fighter is set to use vJoy as the input (the the 98 version), and that vJoy is the preferred controller device. Works great, no drift and smooth.

Interesting. I've never heard of this and I'll be givin it a go as soon as I'm done with AC Unity.
