I've been using an old joystick and decided to pay for the yoke and throttle quadrant when it went on sale last week. I picked it up for $149. It's not as nice as the honeycomb, but definitely usable.
I linked up the ailerons and rudder and flew like that, the same way I did on my old joystick with no rudder twist controls. Unfortunately, the yoke doesn't do as well with rudder control, likely because of sensitivity settings? Flying is great, but as soon as I land, I better be centered on the runway because the ailerons still have a lot of feedback until I slow down enough. Anyone know of a good setup guide? I mapped the red D button to brakes instead of autopilot, but I'll switch that back when I get the pedals.
You can pickup the Logitech right now on Newegg for $149 and there was a stackable Paypal offer for $15 off on my account. I'm crossing my fingers that they work alright and that my wife won't kill me.
