  1. Fascinating, all! This gives quite a lot to think about. I've been 'mentally' constructing things so far, but it sounds like it may not be as impossible as it seemed. At least I know that you can configure two yokes, and even if I can't get a mechanical linkage between them, I still can have them connected through FSUIPC and not cause a major FSX meltdown. Well, it won't be a 'next day' process, but thanks everybody for the feedback.
  2. Hello all: I was wondering if anyone out there has more than one of identical FS controllers on the same FSX setup? I found a used, but fully functional CH Products Flight Sim Yoke USB (original, not newer Eclipse) at a garage sale. I picked it up for $5, thinking of just using it for spare parts for my almost 10 year old same model yoke. However, I noticed the shaft that extends out the back has a convienient keyway, and I was thinking of installing both on my in-progess FSX computer setup, so I have the two interconnected by a chain/sprocket configuration, allowing a left-seat and right-seat experience. Before I do anything, I'd like to know if anyone in our FS world has ever had two identical USB controllers installed in FSX, and if so, does FS and FSUIPC recognize both as unique devices as far as assignments for the buttons, etc? I use a CH Products Throttle Quadrant, so I have the levers on my yoke not assigned, but I'd like to know if the buttons on the two yokes could be programmed differently. I haven't even tried to hook the garage sale yoke up at the same time with the old one (I tested it on an old FS2004 'puter for functionality), as I don't want to take the chance on 'nuking' my patiently assigned controls, both in FSX and FSUIPC. I'm looking forward to some feedback. Rob
