ABSOLUTLY GREAT NEWS!


Amazon is advertising that the LOGITECH G Saitek PRO Flight Yoke System is open for pre-order! :D

It's not just the Yoke, looks like Logitech is planning to bring back the whole line. And prices are at the pre-scarcity level. :clap:

This is just a quick sample.

Who knows, we might even see Christmas sales. :D

Is that correct, Logitech bought Saitek? Well, let's see if Logitech can turn Saitek's fortunes around, and repair the raunchy Customer Service & Supply Chain issues as well.

If only they'd bring back their Cessna line-up. So glad I got 'em all beforehand. Ergonomically accurate, familiar feel, good control, the best thing Saitek ever did.

The Pro Flight Cessna Yoke says one to two months.

The Pro Flight Cessna Trim Wheel is available, but the Saitek Pro Flight Cessna Rudder Pedals has already sold out.



And just a side note - If you were thinking of Pro Flight Instrument Panel at $170, you may want to wait a little. There may be an alternative soon.



Also, if you're a little handy and you want a GPS, you can build one, similar to the one below, for about $60 - $80.

This is an old picture of what I built. The picture isn't very good and it's missing the label (I'm redoing it again). But you can end up with a fully functioning GPS for anything from FS9 to X-Plane.

BTW - That's a 7 inch screen, MUCH bigger than what you can buy already made. :D

Thanks! Already bought a The Desktop Aviator GPS panel w/o display and a separate 7" TFT LED monitor. Had them working 3 years ago, just before i put 'em in storage...until now. Also got a BBI-32 card, pots, switches, everything. Going slow, I want to make a very good cockpit to handle turboprop twins, Q400s, 737s and 757s. I'll get there while I relearn everything. :)

Anyway, thanks for the heads-up on both Saitek and the GPS!

Almost forgot: the panel display I'm putting in my panel will be a 10" diagonal LED for an EFIS. I'll be running two cards: PCI-Express for the main display (slated to be a 30" Samsung monitor), a PCI-only to run both the EFIS and GPS.
