Wanted to Buy: Saitek Yoke, Throttle and Rudder Pedals

Postby ScottyB » Fri Feb 26, 2016 1:22 pm

Hi all,

As the title reads, I am after a Saitek yoke, throttle quadrant and rudder pedals. Anyone looking to sell their parts (or bundle!?)?

Thanks
Scotty

Well that is for sure ... your not having mine :D actually one thing we were discussing last weekend, the four Amigos here last weekend
Gary, Greg, Marty and me just simply how good these units are, even if you are required to buy brand new it is something you will never regret getting .. If you have not tried the complete set before , the first time out , the first two weeks .. forget that the first month ... the sensation is absolutely incredible ... course then mapping most all the primary flight controls to just the yoke and throttle quad ... B-)

Do you know if any store in CHCH sells them new? I can seem to only find them on Trademe up north.

Marty mentioned this shop last weekend just opposite Wigram , looking at the size of the place and from what he said they are aware of Fight simulation stuff.

Try Dean from the PC Aviator store

I bought a Saitek Cessna yoke from him sometime ago

Arrived in no time.

I use the Saitek Combat rudder pedals. They seem pretty work well and are adjustable and appear to be fairly rugged

I LOVE my Logitech G940 Set up, recently found a programme to finally get the little wee buttons to blink and light up in little colours Lol :groupwave:

That is not a replacement but addon just for combat sim's , it would be interesting with the force feedback in a shoot the barstool type game.
