Saitek Pro FLight yoke system

Postby Demious » Fri Dec 21, 2012 4:31 am

Curently I'm using the Saitek X52-pro, but I'm looking to switch to a yoke system and I've been looking at the Saitek Pro FLight yoke system, with some of the controller componants.

Is this a good choice? Reviews on the seller's site seem very good and the options of the modular system seem very attractive, since I fly mostly Cessnas, or sortlike aircrafts and the functions on the extra controllers match my purposses very well.
Only I would like to hear some oppinions from some more serious flightsimmers before I decide to buy them.

And I was wondering, my favorite aicraft is the Carenado Cessna C337H Skymaster, which has a pitchwheel, but also on the autopilot it has a dedicated 'nose-up/nose-down pitchwheel', does anyone know if its possible to set the pitchwheel from the Saitek Pro Flight multi panel to the nose-up/nose-down wheel from the Skymaster's autopilot?

I have pretty much every other saitek product other than the X-52 and I would recommend the proflight yoke for sure!

As far as setting the pitchwheel I'm not quite sure however I know it's fairly easy to modify most settings using the SPAD drivers found below:

Thanks Jarod, also for the link. :)

Been searching for other reviews then on the allround electronics site from the seller and I indeed found some wonderful reviews and rating for it. I decided to have a go with this system, it looks really nice.
