Joystick - Yokes.
Posted: 20 Oct 2019, 18:24
I have been thinking for some time about changing my Logitech Extreme 3D joystick for a new one as mine is on they way out, some buttons refuse to work and overall, I am not happy with the way when flying, there is so little movement in it especially pitch wise that when flying I don't get proper feel to the aircraft without having to adjust some settings to the joystick in the response curves. However I have been looking at a few joysticks and the new Honeycomb Yoke which I am tending to lean towards as it gives a full 90 degree movement in roll which is by far much closer to the handling of an aircraft and also have watched a few videos of it but, it does not come cheap either!

Another joystick I am thinking about is the Logitech G X56 Hotas RGB at Amazon:

Hopefully there will be some deals with Black Friday or Cyber Monday but just wonder what your thoughts are of the Logitech G X56. Does it give more travel than the Logitech Extreme? One point regarding the Logitech is that it has a lot more buttons to play with but as for the throttles........ I already have a throttle quadrant with six levers!
