Hi jovabra
Yes I tried it first on PSX 747 running it on a Windows 10 pc. I started the CLS2sim software but didn’t see PSX listed so just jumped in without any changes to settings. Haven’t installed the vJoy driver so that’s not selectable. Is that required to use the yoke with PSX? Long way to go to get it working properly but the smoothness and trimming are fantastic so far.
Doing that now. Great idea – thanks MrScott
Yes I was impressed with it being shipped on time: I emailed Brunner on the shipment date and within minutes Daniela had not only replied but the shipping process had begun with UPS – 24 hours later it was up and running!
For an early heads up, the yoke has holes so that in can be screwed into your desk to secure it in place. There is no clamping mechanism. You might not want to drill holes in your desk of course – I don’t mind that but securing it with screws does make it quite a permanent fixture. Possibly mounting it on a sheet of wood which can then be clamped onto your desk might be an alternative? Or maybe just velcro it? lol
Cheers

As of yesterday I am the proud new owner of a CLS-E II yoke!! Plugged it in, ran PSX, calibrated the CLS-E II and hey presto: BIG BIG grin on my face!!! I haven’t got a clue how to set it up so it’s nowhere near being ready to simulate realistic movement but even in that state it was a joy to use. It’s just buttery smooth – my days of flying the 747 with the TM HOTAS joystick with my left hand are over!!!
Hi rockyrow
Good to hear you’re enjoying your NG yoke! Ive just ordered the CLS-E MK II yoke and can’t wait for that precise level of control.
I’ve also recently bought the Samsung 49″ monitor, which I love but I’m not sure I’m getting the best use from it. How do you set it up – do you use multiple views? Cheers, Traffic
Hi Piers
Yes it’s a good launch price. The prices do do up quite steeply as the level of force increases so the CLS-E MK II seems a good place to start. I’m not after the exact feel of the 747 just something that says to you you’re flying something big and heavy (and not FBW!). The heaviness of the 747 makes it quite tiring to hand fly over long periods anyway, which would take some of the fun out of sim flying! Cheers
Hey mrscott, I’m surprised too! In fact Brunner sales (Mario) suggested I post here for more information. It would have been very helpful to have had some opinions or feedback from Stefan and owners.
Anyway I’ve taken the plunge and gone for the NEW CLS-E MK II ! The extra travel in pitch, giving smoother control, and extra force in case it’s required for the heavy feel of the 747 were the deciding factors for me. I’ve never been a “launch customer” before 😉 so that will be part of the fun too! Happy days 🙂
