The Products I Use and Love
Logitech Yoke
Logitech Rudder Pedals
Oculus Rift S
Oculus Rift S PC-Powered VR Gaming Headset
(I currently own the Oculus Rift without the S, however to buy the version I have will cost you the same as buying the better Oculus Rift S)
Logitech Driving Force
Well unfortunately I can’t leave you a link to this one. I actually use this and mount it sideways on the edge of my desk. It has become my handy trim wheel.
X-Plane 11
Official Version – X-Plane 11 Global Flight Simulator (PC, MAC & LINUX)
You can also download X-Plane 11 from Steam or X-Plane’s website, but do note that it is a large program.
FSX
Flight Simulator X – Gold Edition (PC)
This is the old version of FSX, not the 2020 version. At the time of writing this, the 2020 version has not come out.
