I wanna buy a Yoke

Postby Fredgirardo » Mon Aug 01, 2005 7:54 am

Hi everyone, I wanna buy a good yoke to pratice my sims. I am searching for a yoke with mixture, pitch , power with button for flaps and gears with a moderate price. I also want to specify that it is a yoke that I am searching and NOT a joystick.

does somebody knows a site or a link where I can buy it?

Thanx guys.

Just do a google search for 'CH Yoke'

Plenty of stuff should show up.

I noticed they can be purchaced in flight shops at air fields also (at least here in AK).

I got my CH Products Flight Sim Yoke-USB few months back from ebay. I guess the pricing is moderate on ebay (except for the $20 i paid for express shipping).

You may also want to check other sites.

Regarding the yoke..........in simple words..........it won't let you down. I have hardly flown MFS 2004 without the yoke in the past few months. You get a more realistic feel and this is a must for hardcore flight simmers (inculding me).

The only issue i had with the yoke was to get it put on my table (had to drill holes in my table) :-X

So do some research and all the best for your purchase.

The CH Products yoke is great... had it a long time.  Going bottom price is about $109.00.  Chack out the store link I have for CH Products in the sticky at the top of the Homebuilt Forum.

best,

Yes there are other yokes....... that about add a zero to the price.

The CH one is great for the money IMO.

I am hoping that Goflight will be coming out with a yoke soon.  They just released rudder pedals that are more like air transport pedals than the CH ones.  So maybe a slick toke is next on their drawing board.

best,

Yes, the CH yoke is great. My only problem with it is that my desk is to thin for the clamps to close on, so I had to clamp a peice of wood on with it. But it works great, I don't even miss the force feedback I had with my joystick. Also, be sure you get the right one, CH makes on with just a throttle lever, and one with throttle, prop, and mixture levers.
