Anyone tried these, or something like it?
Any opinion at all?

I'm thinking of buying. Thought I could use the wheel in racing cars as well...

I had a ch virtual pilot few years back. Ehh I like my x52pro much better. They look cool but they don't have any wheels, so no trim

I've flown the DB off and on with my CH Flight Sim Yoke and it works fairly well. Since I don't have rudder pedals though, I usually use the X-52. If I had room under the desk for pedals, I'd use it more frequently for bombing.

I think the CH fighter stick and a saitek x52 or 45 throttle is the best way to go! Can't do without the trim wheels or rudder pedals :)
