This?
very limited exposure to a collective in the real world. On a Gazelle I think it has an adjustable friction setting, like throttle friction on a cessna or Piper etc. It never shifted when I flew from Ramstein to Brunssum and was allowed to waggle the controls.
@Scoop, I think you have a different lower end adapter.
This one looks like it has more holes and longer sides.
And can be place further down on the desk mount.
That is certainly longer on the sides than mine
And looks like it could give you those 3 inches you need…?
If only?
Now that’s a derail
I pulled the trigger on the TM Boeing Yoke today…it should be waiting for me when I get back from my current trip. I have the Honeycomb yoke, but I have to admit I haven’t found it precise enough, especially in pitch. It also doesn’t feel substantial enough when flying something like the PMDG DC6, Connie, Twin Otter etc. I’ll let you all know how I get along with it.
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts Paul.
Not that anything desirable is in stock at the moment, but thinking that if you are sitting on the fence, that it might be time to get your Virpil order submitted ahead of any trade embargo. I know that they ship from Lithuania, but it’s a Belarusian company, no?
Definitely a good point there Dan. Supply could become difficult for awhile the way things are developing over there right now.
This evening I was able to try my new Thrustmaster TCA Boeing Yoke. Ironically I haven’t used it with any of the heavies yet…but this thing is really nice with the light GA aircraft. The action is very smooth, and it seems very precise in pitch when landing.
Please excuse my messy desk!
Based on my experiences with the new yoke after just a couple of hours use, I’m pretty sure I will be looking to sell my Honeycomb Alpha Yoke.
If you had a pre order and then an embargo starts, would you lose the money or would they be forced to refund? I’m not sure how these things work in practise
that TM yoke look little awkward to me but important is that it works as advertised.
so I am bit surprised that the Honeycomb Alpha is not that precise. do you think it is the mechanics or the sensor what cases the perceived problems?
I’ll take all that clutter for you
Looks normal to me
The main issue I have with the Honeycomb yoke is that I tend to get into a bit of a PIO when in the flare. This could very well be user error on my part of course.
