Its a computer attachment si yes it should work no problem specially if you have win7 and up where driver updates are automatic.

Sidewinder is the best joystick I tried. I have 4 of them. I even had the force feedback version which does NOT have Win XP nor Win7 drivers. The USB sidewinders last forever. Also - Flight Simulator 1 2 and 3 do NOT work in Win7 - you have to stop at WinXP for those.

Bernard, I built a Xaircraft x650 Pro and this controller works GREAT!!!!! Multiple models can be saved, easy to use interface.I have been very impressed with it, I am probably only using 30% of what this can do. Love the SBus. Great controller

First things first-- just download the free demo at x-plane.com. That will answer almost all your questions :)I've only tried about half the planes so far, but yes all the switches that'd you use in real life work. Even switches for 'little things' like turning on lights in the cabin, defrosting the windshield, switching fuel tanks, landing lights, etc.

Yes. I have flown it with both the DX6i and the DX8. Great little airplane. I highly recommend it. Tough as nails. Mine has "broken" many times physically and goes back together well. I also added ailerons to mine just for the fun of it.

Yes it works perfectly. I've used it with flight simulator X and have had no problems. If you do happen to have any issues just calibrate the joystick when you plug it in, and that's it. I'm not sure how it compares to Windows 7 because I didn't use FSX with that operating system.

I used my Ch eclipse with PC - useing Fsx and I have used it with xplane , now using with Mac I would go to the ch products site just to make sure they support the Mac system you have. Play it safe. I do remember when I uses it with xplane I had to do a lot of experimenting with assigning buttons the proper things I wanted them to do. Well I hope that helps good luck my friend

Hi Omar, mine is flight simulator x gold edition and it works well. I'm not sure about standard or other brands.

Yes, after installing the drivers and such on the Saitek site and running through a tutorial I googled I got this working in X-Plane.

Works for me! I use it with a ThrustMaster X-Fighter.Edit (May 2015):However, because OS X provides no calibrator, any joystick becomes useless unless you virtualize Windows/Linux (which have calibrators) with something like Parallels/VMWare Fusion. If only the Rockfire unit came with installable drivers containing a calibrator like the Xbox 360 controller does. Unfortunately, they have not been maintaining/supporting the product at all.

Yes...these do work with X-Plane. However you will have to go to the following link to get the plugin:http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?app=downloads&showfile;=14646

if you're using a mac laptop to play this game X-plane 10 . i believe the joysticks you found might work on the mac just give it a try & see what happens . but the joysticks only for PC & not MAC you discovered are not compatible with your mac then just play the x-plane 10 without a joystick . Cause believe me it's better that way .

Yes it will work with DX5e, and it should work for Aerofly, but I'm not sure about MAC.

You have to download a plug-in from X-plane.org. Install in plug-in folder. Activate the plug-in.

I recently purchased a serious computer for my flight simulator which makes use of the SAITEK add on equipment. I could not get Flight Sim X to work with windows 8 and have downgraded my machine to windows 7 and everything works perfectly. My suggestion is to stay away from windows 8 or 8.1 or whatever they launch next. Good Luck
