Is anyone using one of these? http://flypfc.com/?/products/yokes/cirrus-boeing-737-yoke/

 

Also any better one's below $2000

 

Cheers

I own the PFC Cirrus Saab yoke and can recommend it. Beside being much less expensive than the one you created the link for, it has 12 buttons that can be programmed with FSUIPC and offers a good feeling, nothing to be compared with the plastic models available on the market!

Word Not Allowed has done an excellent review on this product. LINK

Looks great but I'd never personally pay nearly 1,000 for a Flight Simulator Hardware like that.

You have a point, but when you think about it, we spend $2000+. on fast rigs, tons of add-ons and then plug in a cheap plastic joystick to fly :)

 

My mate bought a new exhaust kit and some other stuff for his corvette, it worked out around $6000 dollars, I thought he was insane but if it makes him happy and he can afford it then why not?

 

Thanks for the info guy's

Well my laptop cost around $900, the most expensive thing I own ha! But yeah whatever makes you happy.. Although I'd rather save that money and put it towards my training!

I have the Saab pfc and its worth every penny.

I agree, if you have the money, and if spending it to your hobby will make your happy, why leaving it on the bank? Spend it!

You boys running Presicion Flight Controls,you wouldn't happen to be running the throttle quadrents also would you ?If you are on the turbo's only i can't for the life of me set them properly and i can't get an answer from no one. No more turbo's for this guy.On the Kodiak , the Pilatus 12 and the Real Air Turbo Duke is the worst cause there's 2 engines. How do you set them so they are not so so twitchy? coming in a tight strip it's a real night mare.The Duke i've just about had it-- too much -to little and very sensitive, one engine at 300 or so and the other at 500 and i tried pinching the 2 throttles together but it don't help much, and way too sensitive.If you can tell me step by step how you set it i'd sure like to know. The normal props are just fine and the jets when i switch the quadrent over are all fine, it's just the turbo's i'm having a real battle with. --- And no i'm not using FSUIPC to set them -Thanks.

Not in my case I only have the yoke, I am using the GoFlifght TQ6, so I cannot help you. But if I were you I would give a try to FSUIPC, Pete Dowson will make it work for you!

Good luck.

Rob & Louis-

 

Yes, I use the PFC Flight Console II and Pedals (the console has a built in TQ for which I have 3 different configs). Louis- if you'd like, send me a PM and we can discuss your settings on Skype and get them sorted. Rob- I absolutely cannot be more positive about the difference (for me) in the HW. Very glad I got the set- adds immeasurably to the immersion factor IMHO. FWIW I flew with a CH Yoke and Pedals for years before.

Ok thanks, was hoping some one would help me . I'm up in the Oil Sands till May 9th and when i get home i will PM you and see from there .. Thanks a bunch.

Cheers Carl, good to see you around again.
