CH Products Flight Sim Yoke USB ( 200-615 ) Reviews
Like many others, I had to cut a spacer to get the mounting clamps to work. The title says it all. Glad I bought it. I haven't had any reason to curse the Yoke, just my skill at flying. No dead zone that I can find, the springs ping from time to time. It worked on my laptop and Homesystem with FlightGear, out of the box. Running Fedora 9 on both systems.
I'd recommend these to those people who want to understand flight or are serious about learning to fly aircraft. I would buy both the Yoke and the Rudder Pedals together and not just the Yoke separately. Its great for instrument flying training. Unfortunately I had to buy them from another store because Amazon does not offer these to buyers who reside in Australia, but that's ok its there loss. I bought the CH Yoke and Rudder pedals for use with Microsoft Flight Sim 2006. They were easy to setup and calibrate. Simulator training at home is excellent.
Now I wonder how I ever managed without them. After a few minutes of flying around, I am nailing turns without losing altitude, shooting great landings and just enjoying the crap out of myself. Controlling is so much more realistic and easy. After fighting FS2004 and FSX with my Saitek x45 for more than 2 years, I finally broke down and bought the CH Yoke and Pedals. Just go into FSX and set you sensitivities and map/remap your buttons. Highly recommended. Both units work flawlessly and were set up in about 3 minutes. If you're running XP, don't bother with the drivers.
Using the Flight Sim Yoke makes Flight Sim much more realistic. I have used Flight Sim with keyboard controls, ugh, and a joystick, not quite so bad. The yoke makes responds to the program much better.
I am a private pilot who used to fly at least 2 or 3 times a week. My business now keeps me out of the cockpit for months at a time I use a flight sim program with the CH Yoke and Rudder Pedals to keep from going completely stir crazy, and I also believe that it helps keep your flying skills honed. Great seller. Great Product.
