I'm tired of waiting for the Ram Controls repro... anyone have a used yoke they want to sell?

I have an original (real) SWs yoke hacked with the 1Up Sidewinder. It's plug/play via USB.

I just pulled it off of my custom panel to hook up my RAM repro.

I paid about $300 shipped a few years ago, and would consider north of $150 plus shipping if you want it.

The right trigger recently crapped out, but it's just a loose spring. I could fix that before I ship.

I would rate it visually about a 6.5 out of 10, and it has a new overlay. Functionally it's 100% perfect. The custom box I had built for it is not included as I reused it for my new repro.

If you're serious, make me an offer.  :afro: I also have a NOS parts kit that has a number of extra parts such as gears, springs and triggers/buttons. That alone cost me $50.

Here's a link to my old project featuring this Yoke.

Seriously. Will it fit in my basement or what?

Make sure that you stop replying to emails and maybe send it to him after about a year or two...

Thanks! I know you'll enjoy it.  :cheers:

Havok suggested that I hold onto it for about 6 months to build the anticipation -- so expect it in around Dec. :w00t





(just kidding-- I'll get it out as promised by the weekend).  :laugh2:

Enjoy!! You'll have a lot of fun with it. There's no substitute for playing SWs than a real Yoke.
