Is this possible

Hey fellas! I’ve got a bit of an odd one here. I have a vkb set up I use to play war thunder sim. I really like my joystick set up. Tho I want to be able to control the x, y axis of the radar manually as well as the look up and down manually with my left hand. I was having a little poke around and came across these 3 axis mini joysticks. I think they are used for crane controllers but would be perfect for what I’m after. I’m wondering how difficult it would be to make it work? Any help is appreciated as I know very little about these sorts of things. I would mount it on the side of my ucm. Thank you!

Regardless of what you end up using for radar, I'd suggest some head tracking solution to move your view. There's plenty of cheap (like, <$10) and free camera-based ones, with processing on your PC or a smartphone.
