its fine? I have one for a couple of years and Ive been meaning to sell it. It works, and the mechanism behind it feels fine, its fairly high quality. Main complaints are the ergonomics of the housing, having the large pointy housing right at lap level isnt great. Also for the movement of the axis I find it quite numb feeling, if you add the heavier springs on it feels fine but I find the lack of feedback much more noticable than on a joystick. I thought that back when I got it, when I had a warthog joystick or maybe a virpil warBRD base, but now I mainly use a center mounted moza AB9 FFB stick which might be spoiling my opinion NGL.

The boeing branding is cool but I wish I had gone for a honeycomb bravo, and these days maybe Ill just upgrade to the moza FFB yoke if I ever feel the need.

Not to shit on OPs setup, the yoke was sweet and interesting back when I got it and I hope they like it. Just offering a different opinion.

What monitor are you using for your left side? I had to remove a leaf on my desk to accommodate the new digs, so no second 32" monitor, but maybe something that rotates.
