lister1 Posted January 8, 2018 Posted January 8, 2018 Hey guys, Been flying with just a bog standard joystick and I am wanting to make the jump to a proper yoke with rudder pedals. As you all know they aren't cheap which I am okay with, the only problem I have is I don't want to shell out for a yoke that has a dead zone issue as many have stated with the Saitek yoke, it seems to be prominent in the older models and I am wondering if it has been addressed in the newer models. Any response is greatly appreciated. Many thanks Sean
vgbaron Posted January 8, 2018 Posted January 8, 2018 I have always preferred CH yoke and Rudder pedals. Found them sturdier and easier to configure.

vgbaron Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 I use the throttle quadrant so I don't worry about it. I'd rather have a solid yoke.

lister1 Posted January 9, 2018 Author Posted January 9, 2018 It's well out of my budget to get the yoke, quadrant and pedals
alanmerry Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 I have flown with the CH yoke for years and had no problems, so that's probably a recommendation. It was sometime later that I added the throttle quadrant and later a second quadrant. If you have a throttle control on your joystick it may be possible to configure your setup to use that at the same time as using the yoke.
