December 18, 20187 yr Hi all, The little time I have to search the forums regarding yokes I’m gathering that ACE is not such a great choice. However these negative comments are more than a year ago. Has anything changed since then with ACE products for the better? Im looking for a USB b747 yoke preferably with a vertical pole rather than a desktop type. Unfortunately ACE seems to be good value for money if they’re still in production these days. Any help would be appreciated IM
January 9, 20197 yr My Desktop unit works -- only after i replaced the control module by contacting the vendor (LEO Bodnar). They stoped replying to me and I did meet the guy to do a swap in Toronto. The only reason I ever got my unit to begin with is that I have friends that are Toronto Police. They told me to file a complaint of Fraud so that they could go do something about it. Only then did they respond real quick and ship out a unit......it was broken and then we did a swap in person in. My guess was it was actually a unit that was a "prototype" that had been in use. Take your chances if you want to....however don't send them money until they are going to ship you.....maximum go a week and make sure you use Paypal or something so that you can file a claim to get your money back. Also make sure to get a ship date guarantee in writing to show Paypal. Even then PayPal will sometimes not honour their buyer protection. example -- bought a tablet from gear best and it came with a damaged screen. They stated I had to return it with a insured signed delivery.....well that was going to cost more than I paid to buy and ship the tablet????? I called PayPal and they said there was nothing they could do as it was the Store Policy and I agreed to that??? Totally floored. Les O'Reilly

January 9, 20197 yr Last I heard Ace was dropping the Desktop Yokes side of the house and going to concentrate on the full-size yokes. It’s been over a year since they posted anything so I would t expect a response from them. As far as a full size yoke, there was a distributer in Europe that carried them. Not sure if they still have any in stock.
