ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to flight simulation control apparatus, and more particularly pertains to the field of computer game controllers which are used for the control of games being played on a personal computer. In the present invention, the controller takes the form of a control yoke similar to the one used in actual aircraft with a control wheel, a forward and back movement mechanism, and a throttle. The controllers interface with the computer through the use of a game port on the computer. The game ports are of a standard design and are common on many computers.
