First Time Builder, Questions About Saitek Pro Flight

[spacemonkey]

I am looking to build my first simple cockpit to take up the spare bedroom in my apartment. I am thinking about buying the Saitek Pro Flight instrument panel set up instead of the expensive, more realistic alternatives. What do you think of thier stuff? Is it at-all realistic, or just cheesy? I like to fly commercial jets. Thanks.

Hello space...buy only a Saitek yoke with a throttle quadrant , pedals ...you can use FSX to show FOV ( field of view ) in one lcd and fly instruments in a second lcd...you need only to have a graphiccs card with 2 or 3 outputs ...that Saitek instrument panels are very unreal...very boring to me !...greetings !

I would go for a differnet yoke if I had the money again, my saitek lasted less than 4 months before it started sqweaking so bad I took it apart and made some adjustments..... I've stopped the noise but movement is not smooth now as had to tighten some parts to stop the racket......
