Is there a yoke w/ forvefeedbsck, if not what is closest to real world, msforce feedback w/ ch pedd;es and throttle or the ch youk w. peddles and throttle.

Thanks.

Yoke w/pedals. Don't know of any FF yoke, but you won't miss it. The FF is useful but the more realistic range of movement of the yoke seems to make controlling easier.

I have the CH USB Yoke and love it, I have had opportunity to use the Microsoft FF Sidewinder and would definitely pick the CH Yoke over the FF Sidewinder. I am a pilot and find the Yoke, especially with the throttle quadrant to really add to the sim experience... not good for the helicoptor but all the other GA aircraft.

No sir, I did not pick up that you where a plt, I appreciate you input.

I would still like to have some more feedback, as my freinds and self are unsure what is the best combo.

I agree with Simon Evans and Zfehr.

I gave both a CH Yoke LE USB and a Logitech Wingman FF joystick.
For GA aircraft I strongly prefer the Yoke because it give a much better feel. I don't miss the FF with the Yoke, since I find FF in FSxxx not impressive anyway. (other than the ground effects).

Only for helicopters and military aircraft I prefer the stick.

I couldn't advise you on pedals, other than building them yourself (like I did). See the How-To article on the main Flightsim.com page.
If you want to buy them, I believe the CH Pedals Pro USB is a good buy (what I understand from various people in these Flightsim forums).

if you really want FF in a yoke, it wouldn't be too hard to implement (if you're good with cobbling stuff together and electrical wiring ;) . Just grab the FF equipment out of a FF driving wheel and toss it in the yoke.

BTW, real jets use a tiller on the ground. It's a seperate wheel to steer the plane on the ground. I have my Logitech Formula Force driving wheel set up as my tiller. . .I get the force feedback on the ground when i steer with that ;)

Not trying to be funny...but why not build your own yoke? I built mine using a Logitech Wingman 3D Pro joystick and a yoke from a real Cessna 172! It is not that difficult and I really enjoy the feel of the system.. If you want more details, e-mail me at: diamond6sr@yahoo.com
