Default CH yoke and peddals?

how well does the CH yoke and their peddals with the toe brakes simulate REAL
FLIGHT. Im thinking about getting some for FS2004. The only thing I dont like
about the yoke, is the throttle is right behind the middle of the yoke (in the
3 lever version) is it hard to fly and adjust the throttle,prop and mixture @
the same time. And do the rudder pedals slider fore and aft and pivot for
brake? Is the hat switch on the right of the yoke an issuse, becase in real
life, you fly with your left and leave you right hand free for throtle.
Thanx

Have Dad get you a yoke from these folks: http://www.flypfc.com

The CH pedals are very good.

I've found the pedals to be very good. I have the USB pro pedals. I can't
speak to the yoke as I don't have one.

can you use the USB pro pedals with a joystick with rudder accses and not the
yoke.
And can you have the yoke and the joystick both working @ the same time so you
do not have to change anything in the settings?

I don't know, it wouldn't make any sense to do it anyway.

Maybe but it's no big deal to change settings, is it?

I would like to have it so you dont have to fly an Extra 300, Pitts or a glider
and any other stick controlled plane with a yoke!

Shh, don't tell my system as I can use a USB hub with CH products G. I
have a Fighter Stick, Pro Throttle,and Pro Rudders all connected to a USB
hub with no problems whatsoever. It sounds like something is broken in
your setup. Have you tried other peripherals in that hub? Did yoiu use
external power on the hub or just power from the computer USB port? If
computer power try plugging in the external power supply as the current
draw of the devices may be too much for internal power.

You will find that with the CH products, you won't be able to use a USB
hub (well, I can't, anyway, and I saw a similar post so, I'm assuming
I'm not the only one). So, what you'll end up doing is pluggin the CH
yoke and pedals into the USB front ports on your computer (assuming you
have them or will be putting them in shortly) and when you want to fly
the extra, you'll yank the USB connector to the yoke. If I were more
nimble, I would yank the joystick and the gamepad whenever I fly the
cessna because you'll find that you'll set your beer down on the
throttle control on the joystick or, you'll prop your feet up on top of
the gamepad and 'randomly change stuff' in the sim. This makes for
unexpected emergencies (if they were expected, they'd be called "Drill").

Just my 2c.

My USB hub works great with my CH yoke and pedals.

I use a 4-port USB and have no problems at all. I have a MS FF2, CH Yoke and
the Pedals all plugged in and can assign any axis' I need within FS 2004 to
any of them. It is a powered hub, if that makes any difference.
