interesting saitek idea

The yoke listed above has a built in USB hub intended for use with other saitek products...

my question: do you guys think it would be possible to plug a co-pilot yoke into the pilot yoke and then have both work in FS?

I have the saitek yoke and the usb is great for a mouse and some other small stuff. But the usb hub on the yoke doesnt have an external power supply so you may not be able to power another one.

The MCP module I just installed will not power up thru the hub .

Anyway if you have an external hub or 2 free usb ports on the mb you will be ok with the pilot/co-pilot config

Oh i see.

how do you like it?

do you have the throttle levers too?

I cant compare it to another yoke, but I'm very pleased with it.

The handle itself could of been a bit more heavy duty, just for a better sense of realism. It feels very light and cheap. That is my only gripe.

If you do get one, best make sure and get some rudder pedals
