Have you guys heard of software or a utility that can be used to make 2 individual CH yokes move at the same time, without being fisicly connected.
Thanks mike

There is nothing other than you hand that can make the physical wheel move inside the units. SO it can't be done that way.
You'd have to convert them to some sort of force feedbakc units first. BIG job.
Or use a mechanical linkage.

I've hooked up two joysticks before, it isn't that complicated as long as both pilots aren't trying to cancel each other out, it works fine, with no messy coding, just plug and play. I don't know about slaving one to move with another though, I'd assume you'd need force feedback.

Hooking up two CH yokes is no problem.
But what I think he wants to do is get them to physically MOVE in sync. THAT is not going to happen.

CH and Saitek don't have force feedback in the yokes.
There are a few people who have converted yokes to force feedback by adding servos... but all say it is a deviously difficult project.
SO in that sense... nope.
