Flight Controls on the PMDG 747X and MD11

Featured Replies

Folks,Curious what the other forum members are using with regards to joysticks or yokes to fly the 747x and MD11? I'd like to purchase something, and would appreciate some advice on what makes the most sense for flying the PMDG aircraft.Any advice is appreciated!Bill DiamondKPHL

That is up to your budget and preference. I do think you should have at least a 3-axis joystick (for rudder control) with throttle control, such as a microsoft sidwinder or equivalent.

I have a pretty simple and older Saitek Cyborg 3D Gold joystick... was trying out the Saitek Pro Flight Yoke and Throttle at Fry's the other day though - it's really nice and I'd consider getting it if I could figure out how to attach it to my desk...
