Consumer Rating
Price Range $97 - $120 Product Description There aren't many flight yokes out there for home PC users who play flight sims, but among that small selection of yokes, you'll find a few that are absolutely top-notch. CH Products' Flight Sim Yoke is one of those. Featuring a realistic look and feel and plenty of button functions, this flight yoke is a must-have for all flight sim enthusiasts. ??The Flight Sim Yoke offers an array of controls that includes a four-way hat switch, a gear switch, a flap switch, two 2-way rocker buttons and three push buttons. There are 14 button functions in all, and they are extensively programmable using the Game Center software utility provided with the yoke. With this many available functions, you'll seldom have to reach over to use a keyboard command.
Good yoke for civil aviation

Written By punkertfc Date Written Dec 15 2002 Summary The first thing you notice about the yoke is comfort; the yoke fits right into your hands. CH designed to the yoke to be form-fitting (to an extent). And the handles of the yoke are large enough to fit large hands, but are still shaped so that it will... Strength Many buttons and features, 3 engine-control axis Weakness Pitch movement seems "sticky", clamp is too thick, expensive Bottom Line A very cool and very useful product, but it could be smoother, and could be priced a little better. If you're into flight simming, it's the best.

Written By gagrawal Date Written Jul 25 2001 Summary The next best thing to this yoke is priced about $500. I got this yoke from egghead.com at only $100. Couple this with the USB rudders from CH products (also $100) and you have a great flight control combination. Apart from the x-y axis of the yoke, it... Strength Best yoke for the money. Weakness It's construction is a little cheesy. Bottom Line Highly recommended if you are into general aviation flight simming such as MSFS, FlyII, FU3. flight sim could be better

Written By mkasdin Date Written Oct 28 2006 Summary I have had the product for quite some time over one year. The device worked well (sort of) when i was flying around on my plasma screen. I had it hooked up to x-plane and with a g5 mac and a 42" plasma screen. Overall i was fairly content with it, then... Strength Worked okay for 6 months, but never went the distance. Weakness A bit expensive for a heap of plastic, what do you expect for $100 Bottom Line don't bother buying it unless you are happy with replacing it in the near future. Plastic Breaks!

Strength Works well when it works Weakness Flimsy interior construction I Love it and use it every day...

Written By ntl1991 Date Written May 29 2006 Summary I bought this a year ago at Gateway.com. It has helped me with my Flight Training when used with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004. I love how realistic it is compared to a joystick or even the keyboard. I use the yoke in conjunction with the CH Products... Strength Lots of buttons Weakness Noisy Spring inside, BEST YOKE FOR FS9

Written By fleahead Date Written Apr 18 2006 Summary All CH Products uniits are a little on the pricy side, but I've had the yoke for about a year now with no sign of failure. The clamps are a little sticky, but I don't remove it often. You can find all CH Products items on EBay, and save a ton. I also... Strength Sturdy construction. Smooth operation. Weakness No complaints |
