Unfortunately, item L axis X broken currently dealing with CH to get a replacement item. No complaints to Aircraft Spruce processed and shipped the product in a timely manner.
I have owned the CH Products Flight Sim Yoke and CH Pro Pedals since 2004. I was looking to upgrade my setup now that I have moved from FS9 to FSX-Steam Edition and some high quality general aviation add-ons from A2A Simulations. I have had experience with the Saitek Pro Flight Yoke, but sadly that was a disappointment. Looks great but in use, too many performance and quality issues. So keeping within my budget I decide to go with the CH Eclipse Yoke and CH Throttle Quadrant. I have NOT been disappointed. The new CH Eclipse Yoke has better desk clamps, the yoke handle feels more weighty and solid, the extra buttons and axis options along with the CH Throttle Quadrant allow me to personalize the configuration of any plane in the Sim. I can perform all stages of a flight from the CH controllers, only reaching for the mouse in the virtual cockpit to set Nav and Com radios, heading bug and the odd light switch. Since I already have the CH Pro Pedals, I use the faux pedals axis on the yoke handle for pan view left and right, its perfect. But most important is the performance and feel of the yoke itself. Smooth shaft movement, no dead zone and no detent. It gives precise control of the aircraft in both pitch and roll plus the option to use a trim wheel,... it just feels like the real thing, very realistic. For a serious simmer on a budget looking for the best controllers for general aviation, at this price point, CH Products may be the way to go. American made, good quality and built to last. I give it 5 stars out of 5. Also, thanks to Aircraft Spruce for their quick response to my inquiries and timely delivery... Great Service.
Received with no carton damage but found the throttle lever to be tight and squeaked, so I switched it to the mixture. Other than that I really enjoy flying with the yoke.
I am extremely happy with this product. As someone who is new to flight simming but weary of spending so much money on peripherals, this yoke was a perfect solution as it has everything you need to get started. If youre like me and just flying a 172, the throttle system has everything you need. If you dont want to invest in a set of rudder pedals just yet, the rudder control will do the job. There are many programmable buttons on the controller that should cover most of what you need to get up in the air. I am not giving it a 5 simply due to the build. While the item works flawlessly, the build feels cheap, and the case does not have the ability to attach additional peripherals atop the yoke (such as a radio panel for example, as you can do with the Logitech or Honeycomb). That said, I would 100% recommend this product for anyone like me who is just getting into flight simming but does not want to invest so much money into a new hobby.
