Flight Yokes

Featured Replies

I currently own a $125 CH Flight yoke that is about 1 1/2 years old. I was thinking about replacing it with something that has a smoother feel to it. The only thing I am coming up with is a $595 PFC Jet Yoke. My question is, are these the only two options for Flight Sim, in a yoke, the better one being approximately 4 times the cost of the less expensive unit? Seems like there should be something in between..

Hi Bob,Wow, don't buy another yoke matey, just get your self some 'Silicone Spray' and put a very small amount on the shaft.You will be surprised at the difference it makes!I have to do mine roughly once every two months.Dave T. .........On the lovely warm Devon Riviera and active 'FlightSim User's Group' member at http://www.flightsimgrpuk.free-online.co.uk/

That being said, once I started to think about the fact that I was looking at spending $600, and getting a new yoke that only has 6 switches, and no clamping mechanism to boot, I am sticking with the CH Yoke....... :)
