Title: WTB: Star Wars Yoke
Post by: WareWolF on July 28, 2010, 11:06:24 pm

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.

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.
