Hi Jim,

 

looks like a deal indeed, but I couldn't find a lot of information on this yoke. Anyone knows where to find a review?

 

And just for the record. $1550 down to $900 isn't 50%, although it is still a very good deal.

Yeah, you missed the part about applying the coupon, which knocks down another 250....

 

(Still not 50%, and you need to add something else, but depending on how you consider the final price it's even more than 50%)

Just got delivery of the unit today.  Nice piece of hardware and there are dampening forces as a standalone.  For best results users will have to purchase a plugin from FS Force (http://fs-force.com/).  There is a demo version, user has to fly out of KSEA for it to work.  I'll report back with my findings.

I have been using the yoke for a couple of days.  Haven't flown with many aircraft but have tried a few. The construction and feel is solid and the yoke is built to last.  The shipping packaging and foam are designed to safeguard the yoke in transit.  The handle comes unattached and it could be a little tricky to plug the connector into the slot inside the collar of the yoke but it is doable even with my big fingers.  There is lots of documentation and all the instructions are clear.  The only thing that I do not like is the foam covering the handle's of the yoke.  It is the type that may become sticky with use over time so I suggest that the user clean the handle with a damp cloth using tap water after prolonged use.

It could be an error or they are out of supplies.  The ad does state "until supplies last".  I believe the owner is monitoring this topic and perhaps will provide an explanation.

 

Best regards,

Jim

Thats fine Jim but the ad and banner is still running on the website. If the limit has been reached it would be prudent to remove the advertising and the deal from the Iris website

Agree!  But I did say in my OP it looks like a great deal and evidently it was!

 

Best regards,

Hey all,

 

Very sorry, technical error on our end (coupon/inventory limit was incorrectly set when this was launched.)

 

If anyone has any questions I'd be more than happy to answer them!
