 Alright Starter Yoke June 24, 2008
I purchased a CH Yoke as my first flight yoke; I've had many joysticks and throttles before. I was expecting this to be great, I've heard many good things about this products and it is one in a few that are in the price range.
Pros: It's USB and installs easily. It works with almost all Flight Sims (including Microsoft's FSX and X-Plane)
Cons: It seems to be cheaply made, thin plastics. It doesn't mount well to most desks and tables that I have tried it on.
The BIG disadvantage that I cannot stand is in the pitch axis. It's impossible to return it to neutral! This is due to the springs not always placing the yoke back to it centered point.
I do NOT recommend this yoke to any REAL pilots; it will frustrate you to no end. It is however acceptable for simple gamers and children for a first Flight Yoke.
I'm purchasing Saitek's Throttle Quadrants and looking forward to buying Saitek's Flight yoke as well.
 CH Flight Yoke May 30, 2008
Great product. Easy to install and easy to operate. Best yoke system I have ever used.
Controlling Reality May 18, 2008
My review of this product is using X-Plane Version 9. In a previous review of CH Products Rudder Pedals, I spoke of my transition from keyboard control of flight simulators along my particular path. The next best thing to a control wheel is a joystick with twisting action. Having said that, there is still no real comparison to the CH Control Yoke, except maybe a real airplane control yoke.
I recently upgraded from an adapted joystick with few functioning inputs to the CH Products Control Yoke. What I was missing could add ten things to a long list of wishes.
It surprised me to feel and see the differences that this great device brought to my simulated flying. The Yoke has both centering aileron (roll) and elevator (pitch) inputs plus, 3-levers and 2-rocker switches on the main console. On the left hand grip there are 3-buttons and 1-rocker switch and on the right side there is a 8-way hat switch, 1-button. and 1-rocker switch.
I'm a licensed pilot, currently flying a Cessna 172. Adding a Control Yoke to my Flight Simulator adventures lets me realize how much I enjoy flying, whether be it for real or virtually real. The movement of the control wheel is smooth and right on. Having similar controls on the console lets me practice my movements in the real cockpit.
How nice it is to control reality flying with the Control Yoke!!
Best there is May 15, 2008
It works. It works well. It works for a long time. One caution, however. Do not overtorque the hold down clamps or you will strip them and they won't tighten anymore. A gentle snugging down is sufficient.
I love it May 10, 2008
CH Products Flight Sim Yoke USB ( 200-615 ) Great product makes flying more realistic work just fine with XP SP2. Little work to get it attached to a non standard desk but I got it to work just fine!
