I have the Saitek stuff so I can't speak to the functionality of CH from experience. I don't see why it wouldn't work though.

My family tried to buy me the Saitek for Christmas, but it was sold out then too.

I'm holding out for the Saitek for now, but if it's not in stock by June, I'll get something else.

Here is what you need. Forget the plastic CH and SAITEK stuff...

(also, these are the products I have in my cockpit.)

https://store.flypfc.com/?/products/cir ... ing-style/

https://store.flypfc.com/?/products/thr ... p-mixture/

https://store.flypfc.com/?/products/con ... -console1/

I bought them years ago, they were cheaper then, and they are still operating well with only a few spring replacements.

$2,110.....I'm gonna have to do a TON of "honey-do's" around the house to earn permission to buy THAT much flight gear.
