'aerospace grade'.

 

   What, exactly, does "aerospace grade" mean? Did they use T6 aluminum somewhere in the construction?

Sounds more like sales pitch, mumbo jumbo, to make people go "ooohh, it's gotta be good because it says "aerospace grade". 

We'll find out eventually, cause we will all be buying one to replace the crappy saitek.

I'd have to see one in person and try it first. Lot's of promotional material these days for electronics stuff states that the product is carefully designed by experts. But then the design is shipped off to some factory and the build quality is junk. And then there is the question of the hardware drivers. 

1) IT has the full 180° yoke movement is ideal for flight of any craft.

2 ) lots of button and hat switch too

3) $169? good price

 

This is a contenda! ")

 

The Q is, what does this have that the Saitek Cessna Yoke does not have?  My Saitek Cessna yoke is coming in3 weeks.

For starters the Cessna has two usb ports tp plug stuff into which is nce but not a deal breaker as I have a belkin 7 port usb powered hub also I dont think this has buttons in front of each handle still not a deal breaker with all the rocker switches - really looking forward to this - will have a Cessna yoke for sale lol

 

That said will be interested in how easy it is to remove yoke from table with out loosing its holding capability over time - I always remove yoke once a week to get it out of the way to do day job

Due to ship summer 2017. I guess we will see how well it performs then.

AVANTIME - the closest thing to it, would be this: at 450 USD and free shipping to North American customers, which has a full interchangable yoke handle, able to switch between 737, 747, 757,767,777 crj emb and erj as of now.  787 will be next out, which is being worked on with Qualitywings builders.

Solid metal cast, will last for years.  An investment to say the least, and allot more affordable, when compared to others in the market at a price point close to 1000$ plus shipping

Switch panel? (Not even sure if you actually looked at the product)

I did ... I eliminated that with Saitek's free throttle and switches..They even out It;s a wash. So the competition was the Yoke. 

Nice looking yoke, thanks for sharing OP!  Looks like it could be a good addition.

No throttle quadrant? I like the design but not sure with out a quadrant. I will say I hate how sticky my Saitek is.

No baseball cap? :mad:

They now have a website. It looks like the price is $199, not $169.

6 inches of elevator travel... nice! That is twice the travel on my saitek
