quick stick question

Ok, I was a cheap ass, and went and bought the pelican stick. At first, I thought, this isn't as bad as everyone is making it out to be, I mean, $20 for something that is decent would be fine with me, I don't need the best. But, am I just retarded, or is it like next to impossible to pull off the diagnol directions with this stick? I would like someone who has used the asacii and/or the vf4 stick, and tell me compared to te pelican if there i a noticable diffrence and if you are able to pull off diagnol commands with ease on those sticks. please help

 

don't have any problems doing crouch dashing, moves, etc with ascii ft2 and vf4 stick.
