oh and has anyone used this or knows if it is okay or is it one of those you pay for what you get. I know obviously a 400 to 600 dollar one is far superior but ls this one a cheap one or decent for what I paid. Thanks cant wait to get it. On back order :roll:

I've been using the Saitek yoke for a few years now with no troubles. I find the quality and design to be of good quality. I had a CH yoke before this one and I find the Saitek to be better than the CH yoke.

That's what I use, You will find the clock may go after a bit. It just starts flashing. :evil:
I put Electrical tape over it to hide the annoying flashing.
works great though that is the only issue in 3 years. the throttles got a bit jumpy at about 2 years,
I took them apart and cleaned them with an electrical cleaner no issues with them anymore.

thats what I like to hear. I was hoping for that. Didnt have a choice at 110 dollars no shipping since I have canada computer within 5 minutes. just need the pedals now. Think I will go with ch for those I have heard bad reviews of saitek pedals.

okay awesome and I know you put your equipment through a lot of hours of testing. So if its good for 3 or more years for you it should last me at least twice that. Will be putting up more hours soon just got done with all the family stuff and setting up all my payware and addons. got a bunch of movies on charts and flying so doing that tonight do a lot of flying this next week. Hopefully will see my yoke in a couple weeks. which is when I go back to work :cry:

I've got the Saitek yoke, pedals and extra throttles and all have worked well for the last two years.
