pedestal sim yoke

Recommended Posts

I am ready to buy a new yoke. I would like to get a pedestal yoke as they are easier to adapt to a sim. This is my personal opinion.

Has anyone bought, used or know of anyone that has one. Also what is the best one to buy. I know that they are overpriced but I am tired of the way my Goflight feels.

It has too much drag and does not give me the feel that I have with the real airplane that I fly when landing.

I've been using a PFC pedestal yoke for 17+ years.  I retrofitted mine with Hall Sensors to replace the pots, but they sell them now with HE sensors installed at the factory.  They're expensive, but very sturdy mechanically, and built to last a long time.

Thanks, I just ordered the Saab yoke sold by PFC.

If you have any suggestions for anything else let me know.

I also have the GoFlight Airliner modules

Sounds like your going to have a bang up system. I would suggest that if you intend to run the new MSFS when it's released next year that you up your memory to 32GB.

Other than that you should be fine.

 


Thank you.
