Dear FG users,
I'm looking for a decent set of joystick and pedals to use
with FG on a Linux x86 box. For local availability reasons,
I'd prefer this to be either MS or Logitech products,
but using other manufacturer's produce is possible,
albeit incurring several extra weeks of wait.
Please recommend me systems that you know of as working.
The setting is noble --- I'm trying to lure B.Sc. students
into doing mini-projects around flightgear, so that
successful contributions back to the flightgear project
could be made.
I don't have enough budget to buy several-thousand-dollars-worth
systems like the ones used in the flight school PCATDs;
is it at all possible to find consumer-grade pedals
that, like in the real airplane, are interconnected (i.e.,
pressing the left makes the right one depressed and vice versa)?
Also, I wonder if the "force feedback" feature is used
by flightgear?
I'm a complete joystick newbie, my last joystick was a Kempston
spring-centered one-button one, connected to a Spectrum-compatible
8-bit computer :-)
TIA,
Vassilii
The CH Products Yoke and Pedals (USB) has worked fine here for at least
2 years.

Sid.
