"Hey guys!

Im about to but this throttle but I have one last question... does it work fine with add ons such as level d, PMDG 747 and 737, PSS airbus, etc? I hope somebody can help me, thanks!

Read the <a href=""http://www.goflightinc.com/FlightSimReview.shtml"" target=""_blank"">review</a> on flightsim.com. Sounds pretty good. He did mention he had a few problems with the throttles conflicting with his CH yoke throttles. I guess that can be cured by putting the CH throttle all the way forward. Said the feel was a bit stiff but that's probably more realistic. To me it seems like a lot of money for this throttle but then again it is a highly specialized piece of equipment that they probably don't sell a lot of. The other question I have, and doesn't appear to be answered anywhere that I could see, is if you don't have the console to put it in, how do you mount it? Does it have clamps like the CH yoke so you can mount it to a desk or something? It says it comes with mounting screws but I don't think you'd want to be screwing it to your desk

! Do some more research on it and see if there are any more reviews before you spend the money that's for sure. Try AVSIM and see if they reviewed it. Anybody here own this TQ? Good luck, Mark"

"Thanks snipe!

Yes I read the flightsim.com review but it doesn't talk about any payware aircraft, he only tried it with the 747-400 default and some other defaults :wacko: I'll try to find a review on avsim!

Thanks!

"Hi Carlos, I have the May/June 2005 edition of PC Pilot which does a comparison of the GF-TQ6 and the CH Throttle Quadrant. Are you set on the GF unit or would you be interested in hearing some of the comments from the review? "
