I used sticks in the late 80's and early 90's , after a 22year gap come back racing with my kids . I started with sticks but changed to wheel about 8 months ago for a couple of reasons , I wanted to have the same as my kids as if they had problems they could use mine and secondly my right thumb doesn't move like it used to .
It's taken me a while to adjust but getting better with it now , and like you say I find it easier to use brake . Think the tx you use makes a huge difference, I also tried a futaba 4grs of a friends and found sticks really comfortable again . But I've decided to keep on with the wheel mainly for back up for my kids , I think I found tight left hand turns the hardest . If you do swap over it is best to allow time to adjust , and allow your results to drop a bit .
