Command the skies with the king of flight simulator controls, the Flight Sim Yoke USB. This one of a kind yoke offers features that will allow you to fly with the realism you've come to expect from CH Products. Pilots around the world applaud the comfortably placed prop, throttle and mixture levers. It's the closest thing you'll get to sitting in your own cockpit.

The yoke has enough buttons, hats, levers, rocker switches and up/down switches to control just about every function of a light aircraft without having to touch the keyboard.
Programming:

You have two programming options. The first is very easy, and the second is more involved:

Option 1: USB Direct Mode

Plug in your CH USB controller
Let Windows recognize it and install it automatically as a USB device
Start your favourite sim
Go into the controls setup of that sim
Select a setting (e.g., throttle, views, weapon fire)
Press a button, or move an axis or lever depending on the control you are defining.
Do this until all your buttons and axes are assigned to the controls you want your yoke to handle.
Save your settings and play the game.

Option 2: Programmed or Mapped Mode

This option involves creating a profile for your CH controllers using the CH Control Manager software that is available from the CH website to make sure you have the latest version.

Scripting / programming using the CH Control Manager is not for the faint of heart. It looks fairly simple, but it is a very sophisticated piece of software that will require some dedicated time and effort on your part if you want to master all of its powerful features. To get into a full explanation of the CH Control Manager's workings is beyond the scope of this review, but if you are interested in learning how to use it, read all the help docs that come with the CH Control Manager, or, read 531 Ghost's "CH Control Manager For Dummies" posted at Kevin "Revvin" Watts' CH-Hangar.com.

Speaking of Revvin's excellent CH-Hangar.com, you can visit his forums where you'll find an entire forum section dedicated to pre-made, ready-to-use controller profiles for most popular simulations. Just download a suitable profile and use the CH Control Manager to install it into your own controllers. You may have to change a few settings in your game's controls setup to match those in the downloaded profile, but that's a small price to pay for all the work that goes into creating the sophisticated profiles complete with CH Control Manager script (CMS) routines. There's even a section of base profiles that do not include any mapping for games but have been set up ready for use with CMC files and have the axis set up for generic use.

If it ain't broke, why fix it? CH Products has brought a classic back to life with the Flightstick Pro USB. This solid, ambidextrous controller has set the standard for all joysticks past and present

The Flightstick Pro USB features a unique ambidextrous design, somewhat reminiscent of the USAF F-15's grip. Across the top, a single hatswitch and three buttons are laid out in a symmetrical pattern, with a large trigger mounted on the leading edge of the grip. Button placement is excellent, for both right and left handed gamers, and each responds with a reassuring click when depressed.

The base of the Flightstick is wide, which means no cheesy suction cups here. A simple throttle wheel sits on the left side of the base, and veteran gamers will be pleased to find actual trim wheels for both pitch and yaw. As the owner of several USB controllers that will not center due to excessive play, trim wheels should be considered a mandatory feature. The stick uses an unusual centering mechanism, that feels slightly different than standard controllers, but during actual gameplay, is as smooth as any controller on the market. The tension is not adjustable, but the factory setting is near perfect; light to the touch but not loose.

The CH Pro Throttle USB is much more than just a one axis throttle controller! In fact, you can fly almost every flight and combat simulator using the throttle alone if you wanted to!

The USB Pro Throttle® is the foundation of the advanced gamers control setup. The Pro Throttle button features will add the ability to successfully conquer the most advance sims and your best opponents. The smooth throttle slide control will help you out maneuver your opponents for hours in online combat arenas.

Sporting combat features to allow the new throttle to excel at flight sims to first person shooter games. New features of the pro throttle include a mode switch to allow three defined sets that can be switched on the fly. An LED light array to show the user which button set he or she has loaded: regular, combat, or advanced mode. A mini joystick is mounted for control with the thumb to allow advanced targeting, 360-degree view control, an excellent tool for racking up the "frags" in first person shooting games. The new Pro Throttle USB is the meanest tool for combat or Pilot flight simulation software that has been produced by CH Products to date.

Saitek launches the Aviator – the first dual throttle joystick for modern flight
simulation games. The Aviator is designed with everything you’d expect from a high performancejoystick, including a rugged, military-style design, rapid response trigger, 8-way hat switch, plus illuminated rocket or missile fire button with safety cover.

And a first in joystick design, the Saitek Aviator features dual throttle levers. These enable independent control of multiple engines when flying a large bomber or modern passenger jet, or an engine/flaps combination for better control during take-off and landing. The dual throttles can also be locked together for simplicity when flying single-engined aircraft.

Additional controls include 3D twist for precise rudder control whether taxiing or in the air,front-mounted instrument panel which includes base-mounted toggle buttons with up and down switching functions, and mode selector to instantly change the Aviator’s controlsto suit flying scenario. Saitek’s programming software means the Aviator offers up to 8 separate commands which can each be programmed separately.

The Cyborg evo Force features Immersion’s Touchsense force feedback technology, allowing you to feel every bump, shot or crash in supported games.
