July 12, 20178 yr Hello, I am in need of a new Saitek Throttle quad (USB) since my 2 year is worn. Is the new Logitec/Saitek H/W any better than the old one since Logitec has taken over Saitek????? I need to replace the quad that ships with the Yoke package, the yoke is still OK, Am I right to assume that a single USB quad would also work in this scenario??? Thanks fellows.

Yes, it will work (but will appear as a separate device). I doubt it is any different than the Saitek one.

July 13, 20178 yr I got a second saitek throttle quad (prior to logitech takeover).. comes with USB connection and an extra plastic black 4 knob "knuckle", 2 blacks , 1 red and 1 blue. Smart Technology will show it up as a separate device to be programmed as desired or put it through fsuipc and program axis etc.(preferred methodology)

July 13, 20178 yr Author Thanks everyone for your replies, I wish Logitec would make better H/W and maybe charge more than Saitek. 2.5 years is about as long as they last.

July 13, 20178 yr Hi, I'm based in the UK. I have a spare throttle quadrant of the type you need to replace. Gathering dust so available gratis if you're still looking for one.
