Digital camera reviews of CH Products Flight Sim Yoke USB ( 200-615 )
Digital camera Review: A Flight Simmer's Review, age 14
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an amazing product. It has 5 axes of control, allowing you to fly any way you want. You can control the throttle, propeller, mixture, ailerons, and pitch all at the same time. I love the way it has a miniature throttle quadrant right on it. This product works great with other CH products, but even alone, it is phenomenal. All of the controls are customizable. I use this with Microsoft Flight Simulator X Deluxe, and it works great, right out of the box. You don't even need to set all the controls, but if you want to, it is incredibly easy. I strongly recommend this for all flight simmers.Digital camera Review: A Must Have For Computer Pilots!
Summary: 5 Stars
Great product for computer flight simulation. Easily installs, well made and works great.Digital camera Review: A fantastic and durable product that will last for years.
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought my first CH USB yoke nearly a decade ago, and only now, after a ridiculous amount of GA and commercial simming, do I feel I need a replacement. The old one was still in working order but the springs were feeling loose. You can bet that if you get one of these, it will satisfy your flying needs for a very long time.Digital camera Review: A great and realistic flight simulation product.
Summary: 5 Stars
I have tried out a number of different yokes for flight simulation. I run Microsoft Flight Simulator 10. CH Products Flight Sim Yoke is by far the best I ever tried out. I am a General Aviation pilot flying standard aeroplanes like Piper PA28 and Cessna 172, and the yoke succeeds in providing a realistic simulation of aileron and elevator control. This is also true for the elevator trim function.
When I installed the yoke, I had to increase the sensitivity substantially (in Microsoft Flight Simulator, Options/Controls) for both the aileron and elevator axes to achive the realistic sensitivity.
I can really recommend this product.
Digital camera Review: A great tool for serious sim users
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased the CH Flight Sim Yoke to use with a flight simulator whilst in training for my instrument and commercial pilots license.
This product has transformed what was a mediocre simulation environment to a great simulation environment providing a level of realism that is difficult to get outside of the more commercialized PC Training Devices.
I have used it with both Microsoft's Flight Sim X and X-Plane 8.5. Both applications were a breeze to setup with the device and worked very well. Microsoft's Sim was running on a PC and X-Plane was running on a MacBook Pro. The device worked flawlessly on both platforms.
The Yoke comes with a built in Trim Wheel which is not really talked about anywhere. This Trim wheel is not linked to the simulator in anyway, but appears to be an electrical bias against the Yokes pitch sensor and as such doesn't have a great range of motion. I have in fact assigned one of the controls to the Sim Trimmer and use that instead.
The Yoke mounts to my desk very securely, I had seen some contrary reports, but on my desk with a roled / shaped edge, it is easy to secure the Yoke using the built in mounting system.
I fully recommend this Yoke to anyone looking for a more realistic simulation experience.
