This review is from: Saitek CES432100002/02/1 Pro Flight Cessna Yoke System (Personal Computers)
This Saitek Cessna Yoke is a variant of the regular Saitek Pro Flight yoke. The major difference is the absence of a clock/timer on the control wheel. Instead, there is a Cessna logo. The configuration of the programmable buttons on the grips is different, but the functions are the same. The control wheel is sturdy and responsive. There is no issue of dead zones in the ailerons or binding elevator control. The control wheel turns 90 degrees on each side, instead of 45 degrees as the regular Pro Flight yoke does. The larger turn radius resembles that of the real Cessna yoke. Like the regular Pro Flight yoke, a detached quadrant with three control levers and six programmable buttons is included. All the programmable buttons on the grips and on the detached quadrant are easily accessible; so are the control levers on the quadrant. All in all, this Cessna yoke I received is of better quality than the regular Pro Flight yoke I purchased awhile back. It costs more, but it is worth it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not Impressed, June 14, 2012
This review is from: Saitek CES432100002/02/1 Pro Flight Cessna Yoke System (Personal Computers)
I'm currently training for my PPL at a local flight school and decided to buy a yoke to augment my learning while at home. The simulator at our school has a wonderfully solid, fluid yoke that accurately replicates the feel of the 172's yoke that I'm learning in. Of course, those are considerably expensive, so I decided to stick with Saitek as I have the X-65F which, while not perfect, is quite a good HOTAS setup.

I followed the manual to properly setup the yoke in Flight Simulator and began my first flight. I immediately noticed how poor the pitch movement is on the yoke. It's not a fluid motion, with the fore/aft movement feeling as if it 'sticks' or gets rough in particular spots. The pitch feel is so dissimilar from the actual 172 that I find it much harder to fly in the simulator than I do in the actual plane. There's not enough tension and there's way too much play around the control column. Changing the sensitivity settings in FSUIPC/FSX settings helped... Read more

This review is from: Saitek CES432100002/02/1 Pro Flight Cessna Yoke System (Personal Computers)
This yoke was kind of bad out of the box. The 180 degree roll was very nice, but when you got near the center in pitch, it would just click in place. Basically if you had properly trimmed your aircraft you would not be able to do small corrections.

So what I ended up doing was voiding my warranty by:
1: Opening the yoke up (about a dozen small screws on the bottom of the case and it popped off).
2: Took out the pitch springs and the clamp like things that they were attached to.
3: Carefully remove the swing arm that goes between the grove on the shaft and the sensor and used JBWeld epoxy to glue on a small pitcher frame hook under the stud that goes into the grove. Let it set.
4: Carefully put the swing arm back (orient everything so the sensor side is on your left). There are two posts for screws to screw into to the right of the shaft. They are almost at the end of the for and aft range of travel for the center grove on the shaft. Used 2... Read more
