Having watched some amazing cinematic videos of the upcoming Microsoft 2020 Flight Sim I am a bit confused as to what add on hardware is used to control the camera. Game and xbox controllers are mentioned. For aircraft control I use the Honeycomb yoke along with Saitek rudder pedals, and the Saitek X52 throttle. I also have a spare Saitek Stick. Could I use this for the cinematic camera movement, or will I have to purchase a game controller? Any advise would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Many thanks. I'll have a look at this. Appreciate your quick response.

For my fellow pilots.

I'm looking for a USB flight deck that will support force feedback and have
in the neighborhood of say around fifteen to twenty buttons, or more buttons
the merrier,  on the USB
flight yoke/USB joy stick.
Looking for a Yoke,and or joy stick and , Throttle and a set of USB petals,
and a switch pannel for switches to trip the lights with, to fire up the
master battery with and so on..
Looking for something that will work with the examples below, but be as
close to the real world flight instruments as possible, and would support
force feedback as well.
I'm looking for something that would work with the up coming Microsoft
Flight Simulator 2020 program, with as many hand to ear programs that
supports USB external hardware input and with the first ever hand to ear
force
feedback supportive military flight simulator called Three-D Velocity.
Here's more info on the Three-D Velocity or TDV for short project, so that
you may stress test it with your own equipment, to see if it would work out
for me.
To find the TDV program, go out to:
www.github.com
Then simply set up your free account and do a search for three-d velocity.
Then of course, down load and install the program.
The best way to describe TDV, is to take the movies top guns and Iron Eagles
and combined them together.
I want to give my main source of input, the keyboard a rest and use the
external USB equipment for the flight simulators and hand to ear games.
See everyone in the air for Wheels up on Tuesday.
