LogitechG PRO Flight Yoke System, Professional Simulation Yoke and Throttle Quadrant, 3 Modes, 75 Programmable Controls, Configurable Knobs, Steel Shaft, USB, PC - Black

I find this setup to be as accurate as it can be both for the price and the experience. However I am going to address a lot of the complaints with my own opinions and maybe some people will find it helpful.#1: This yoke is not as out of the box ready as I expected.Try to keep in mind this product is for simulation purposes first and foremost. And it must be designed to be as compatible as possible along a wide variety of games and aircraft. If you are looking for a controller that accurately reacts to things like wind shear, gyro drift, and turbulence then you’re asking for a piece of equipment with motors and servos that costs in the thousands. Instead you have a yoke that uses spring tension to offer a baseline of resistance.#2: I don’t like how little the aileron axis reacts in game.This is a criticism by gamers who’ve never flown a real aircraft. (See above comment about the purpose of this yoke) in a real aircraft you use micro movements to correct your pitch and roll, especially in cable controlled non-hydraulic prop planes. I am a private pilot with non turbo single engine restrictions, meaning I can only fly small planes like Beechcraft Bonanzas and Cessnas. In my experience you deal with wind buffering on your control surfaces meaning you have constant feedback from the world outside your aircraft. This is very difficult to reproduce in a game. The truth is you’re complaining about the S-Curve logic in your game settings. Most flight sims will let you adjust this in game settings for a more personalized feel. Keep in mind if you want simulation you don’t want a major pitch and roll response for making small adjustments, you want slow gliding gradual responses, unless you’re flying a fighter jet.#3: The dead zones are too pervasive and it takes a lot of turning to engage the planes roll function. Also the axis will drift sometimes putting me in a perpetual roll.The drifting is corrected by the dead zones and they are completely adjustable both centered and externally. You can adjust these to precision to minimize drift. And again the dead zones are adjustable in most games. I use this yoke in Project Cars and gyro drift is very noticeable when going 200mph down a track, but again, it’s adjustable.#4: the hardware is cheap plastic and the mounts are flimsy.Even the mounts are adjustable. If you’re getting overexcited and pulling the yoke or throttle quadrant loose then you are not playing a flight sim you’re playing an arcade and maybe need a different control like the x56. For the price the hardware is just fine.These are my opinions. This is not to invalidate other’s opinions. It’s just how I feel about this product, especially in VR.

Had no problems installing these items to the computer and they work great. Looked for any weaknesses in the materials, but they are sturdy. Good buy.

Great beginner yoke, pretty comfortable for my hands aswell. Not worth much more then 130$ USD Id say, try and get it used. Build quality is about what id expect for the 100 dollars i bought it for, Beware though! It is a GIANT yoke. Not sure how it fits on my desk. Screen brightness is nice, pretty heavy but that may just be because im not super strong. Works very well! Only reason its 4 stars is because they forgot to put screws in the box for the quadrants mount and i have to go get some more screws somewhere, but its ok if its used i guess. Small parts are easy to lose

Just a quick review from first few hours of use:I've read lots of complaints about missing screws. The screws were in a very small wrapped up piece of clear plastic bag. Very easy to throw away by accident. Mine were there so no issues because I specifically looked for them. There is no need for a power supply as another review mentioned. Possibly if you have a lot of other add-ons plugged in such as the radio stack or autopilot there may be a need. Power for the unit is provided by the USB connection. The mounting brackets work fine though they do seem flimsy so don't over tighten. No software is provided and mine had a piece of paper included written in German pointing to logitechs website for downloads and support. The site, by default, had me download the 32-bit drivers which would not work with Windows 10 64-bit. I had to do additional searching to find the 64-bit version. Worked perfectly with FSX.Now on to using the yoke after getting everything installed and the yoke mounted on my desk. The display on the wheel is cool but seems to only be used for a clock or stopwatch. Looks nice but not really that useful. The buttons all seem to work well but are a bit cheap looking. The feel of the wheel itself is great. It fits in the hands well and feels real. The throttle works perfect as well. I really wish they would've use metal for the shafts of the throttles. They look to be made of brittle plastic and I'm wondering how long they'll last. I expect that one day I'll grab the throttle during a panic landing and have it snap off.Overall it seems a bit expensive for what it is. I guess considering it's a very niche product it's going a cost a bit more. I wish they'd used better quality materials but I'm very happy at this point.

Ok, here are some real thoughts from an actual Student Pilot (that's me!) with 25 hours in his real life PPL logbook.1. This yoke (and additional rudders) saved me about five hours of real flight by becoming instinctual with the controls before getting to the flight school. At $400+ per flying hour, the value here is off the charts.2. Even though this is an entry level yoke, it was easy to learn a proper approach/flare/landing in the sim - that's the hardest part of flying a real plane.3. BUT! Because this yoke uses opposing springs to recenter itself, you'll feel the spring transition in the yoke (pitch axis) and it can be hitchy. It was extremely difficult to work back and forth across that spring transition and have a smooth landing in the sim.4. The solution is this: trim the elevator on final, and you won't have any issues with the springs. There won't be anything to fight.5. My preferred setup for the lever bank (updated after flying in real life): Left - Throttle, Middle - Flaps, Right - Trim. This configuration unlocks maximum usability and repeatability for this product. (Don't use the middle for fuel mix, you won't adjust it during flight anyway.)Get this first. The expensive stuff won't make you a better pilot. Saturate yourself in the sim with extra trimming, and this yoke/lever combo starts to shine.
