It is more possible to fly with joystick than a gamepad, a damaged crate, but if you don't mind rethinking & relearning how to fly at a 20 - 40 degree list, the associated control difficulties involved plus if your lucky on damage not hitting rudder, elevator and/or working aileron control rods/cables & trimming control mechanisms.
Oh, you at least need aileron trim to ease constant list rotation with assistance from gradual inputs of controls (inc' engine power & prop too,) with non-control-movement-canceling trimmings of all working surfaces, lots of patience and smooth steady wrist/thumb.
I've only been lucky/patient/heavily damaged in moderate way enough to land with 1/3 of one wing missing less than 5 times in 10 years; it also depends on what manoevers/moments & energy your performing/doing/have at the time of damage & how you can stabilise it 'gyrations' - assuming there aren't enough bandits around, so you can get away to own lines. The only time I was able to land it on the gear, was the 1st time in 2002/3, with most of the aircraft looking like a collander and the missing left wing portion looking sorta like that Avengers, but all other controls still somehow active in that Shturmovik..
