It'll work with a game pad like an xbox or PS controller, but if you get serious, you'll want an actual drone radio controller. If you have a DJI camera drone, you should be able to use that. I spent like 100 hours in the simulator before I ever flew a physical drone.
If you do decide you want to get further with it, check out the Radiomaster Pocket. It's similar in size and form as a game controller, but can actually control a drone. FPV Sky.Dive is a game on Steam that you can get for free to start. They have map expansions and such you can purchase, but it's free to get started. Liftoff is my sim of choice right now. It's pretty amazing, but costs $20.

I could find a PS controller somewhere. I don't own a DJI. I'll have to make do with what I have :-)

I'll have to "write to Santa Claus" to make me have a good Christmas :-)
