Arrow The virtual cockpit thread

Go on then, lets see your virtual 'pit!
I'll start it off, with my new (pre owned) CH yoke, together with a Saitek throttle quad, and TiR3 vector, and off camera CH pedals and CH Fighterstick, and a 32" LED TV.
The JU88 is fantastic with a yoke!

I have long used a yoke to play IL2 with bombers, creates a very good experience and more realistic

for lack of space in my room I made a specific table, where it enters all I need

x52 saitek
yoke saitek
cuadrant saitek
Pedals saitek
switch panel saitek
trackir5
dolby 5.1
simulation RC

& grij com box by aty2 ( and a communications box speak3 team, created by me, for me and my friends grij )

Good Thread!

Especially the idea of bolox with the longer stick would be perfect for my x45 as it`s always hell of work in long dogfights (ok, my "dogfights" are not soooo long atm ) to move it!

http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/attachm...1&d=1330180565

Hope it works with the picture....

How do you manage to fly with two control units? (yoke and joystik)
Can you configure it in a way, that you can use your stick for fighters and the yoke for bombers? Or do you have to unplug the one you dont want to use right now? What about the axis controls in the game?!

Im so confused

I dunno about Saitek, but the CH software will allow you to change your controls 'map' depending on the aircraft. So, if either the stick or the yoke isn't in a map then it won't be 'live', therefore no conflict is possible.

in IL2 Sturmovik 1946 by user profiles, in COD changing the controls. until I make some final profiles. In FSX is easier
