Turtle Beach VelocityOne Flight Universal Control System – Xbox Series X & Xbox Series S, Xbox One & Windows 10 & 11 PCs with Yoke Handle, Throttle Quadrant, Trim Wheel & Rudder Controls

Turtle Beach Customer care is Number 1
I spent a long time researching what controller I wanted to use for my MSFS2020 I am a student pilot, and I wanted something that felt like I was actually in the seat of a Cessna 172. I heard hundreds of people talk about the Turtle Beach Flight Yoke and controllers.Let’s first say my wife thought I was losing my mind spending that much money on a controller, but I was always raised and taught you get what you pay for.So, with that being said this is a long review but worth the read.My first week of having the Turtle Beach controller it sat on my desk still wrapped up I was spending as much time as possible reading up on it and watching video after video.I will say this once you get everything dialed in correct it honestly feels like you’re in the seat of a plane and you are ready to fly.So, the unthinkable happens after only using it 3 weeks it breaks, I was practicing my takeoff and landings and was noticing the yoke wasn’t reacting to what I wanted it to do. Turns out a small piece inside the system broke off and this prevented me from landing the plane.At this point I was through the roof mad that how could something as good as Turtle Beach Yoke system go bad in a month.I contacted Turtle Beach Customer Service and spoke with Viele GrüßeSascha very helpful.Customer Support Agent Outstanding service they listened to my concerns and within days had a shipping label made for me to send the controller back and as that one was on its way back a new one was sitting at my front door.This is Truley what great Customer service is all about.So, with that being said, Turtle beach flight yoke system is the closest thing you will get to the real feeling flying a plane. and you always got top notch Customer support behind you making sure you are being taking care of.

Terrible Quality Save Your Money!
First off the device does what is intended and is a yoke and throttle quadrant but that’s about where it ends.The device was well packaged and was shipped inside of two boxes. Not needed and wasteful but ok it works. When I first pulled the Yoke out of the box and inspected it when I flipped it over internal parts started moving around like something is broken inside. Sounds like a screw with how loud it is. I thought great going to need to return it. But the Yoke still works. The springs are jerky and not really smooth at this time. This makes fine adjustments a complete pain in MSFS. To top it off I take this thing off my desk whenever I am done flying and put it back in the box. While putting it back in the box for the very first time I noticed a POV hat had come off while removing it from my desk. I thought interesting it must just pop off like normal ones no biggie. But the actual part it connects to is broken! Not even 8 hours old and a POV hat is broken. For the price this thing should be far better than it is. This is a $199 setup at best!The ONLY saving grace for this pile of crap is the throttles. Its the only one that has the same throttle found on most trainers. The big down side to them is you HAVE to use them with the YOKE so I cant buy a better yoke and use the throttles. Had I not just spent a bunch of money on my ground school and PPL training I would be returning this and buying the honeycomb stuff. Stay clear of this device if you are at all serious about GA sims or actual flight training. It will leave you disappointed and it will break at the slightest touch. Pure garbage.

Update: I feel it shouldn’t be legal to manufacture something and claim that it does X, Y and Z when only X and Y work. For example, the warning lights behind the yoke look great, but they’re all permanently lit and don’t seem to do anything. Chatter around the Internet is that Turtle Beach are yet to get these functions working!! So you’ve made a product and it doesn’t do what you’ve marketed it as doing?? That’s misleading and surely not legal. That, along with the sticky yoke (it’s just not smooth moving back and forth and jerks a little, but I hear it’s something that fixes itself over time)……….is the only reason I don’t like this system. But there are 100 reasons I do it like also….. Original review below…I’ve wanted this for ages. It was released but sold out quick, then it came in stock yesterday so I didn’t hesitate any longer to buy! Glad I got it! Came earlier today. The set up is easy to follow but takes time because you have to find a suitable place for it to go and then you have to connect cables. Then after plugging into Xbox you’ll end up tweaking some of the controls to suit your needs. For example, on the customisable panel on the throttle quadrant you can programme around 10 buttons I think to do what you want. I set to things like flaps up/down, landing gear, auto pilot, switch from external view to cockpit view etc. so the set up took a while.The flying itself takes a little getting used to if like me you’ve just moved away from using the Hotas One joystick. It’s like learning to drive in a Mini and then buying a Porsche. So many buttons to customise and memorise. But it’s awesome and feels very much like a real plane. Makes this whole set up feel less of a “game” and more of a real flying experience.I can’t recommend this enough. It works on PC as well as my xbox series S. no hassles at all setting up or using. The mrs wanted me to wrap it up for myself for Xmas day. She’s mental! it got opened and used right away… and you will too like a kid on Christmas Day! Enjoy

FlightSimulator2020用に購入しました。今どきのジョイスティックはfirmwareを持っていて多機能ですね。まさに多機能な操作が必要なFlightSimulatorのジョイスティックにはうってつけです。物が到着してすぐにアップデートしました。ms storeから専用のturtle beach control centerアプリをダウンロードして、本体中央のスクリーン横のボタンでアップデートモードにしてからアップデーターアプリを起動して対象の本体を選ぶと、自動的に1.4にアップデートされました。ただFlightSimulatorのジョイスティック設定画面のデバイス欄が空欄なのでギョッとします。ちゃんと動作はしてます。本体の問題なのか、FlightSimulatorの問題なのかよくわかりませんがそのうちアップデートなどで改善すると思います。

Likes: Trim wheel, throttle quadrant, ability to simulate small prop plane and large commercial aircraft, almost plug & play.Dislikes: Confusion, erroneous, inconsistent instructions.Overall, I found the product to be very good for use as a training tool to keep up with the flying skills, or to learn new piloting skills.
