Sorry, this has probably been answered before.

I just recieved a CH USB yoke to replace my VP pro Gameport yoke.
However, I still want to use my Gameport pedals.
Is this possible?

Thanks

I have USB Rudder pedals and a Gameport FLight Sim Yoke, both by CH. I
can't use them together. It is either one or the other. How did you get
that to work? The CH website even says that you can't mix USB with Gameport
controllers.

Follow up:

I am now using the USB flight sim yoke together with CH pro pedals on the
game port.
They work together. I still have my old CH virtual pilot pro connected to
the pedals though....

Hi!

I'm on Win ME, and I'm using USB yoke, and gameport pedals. Only that the
gameport yoke is still connected. I think I read somewere that you have to
have a gameport joystick connected to the pedals for them to work in this
way, haven't tried to disconnect yet...will have to do that if someone will
buy my CH gameport yoke...

Hey you could be right, I have X36F stick laying on the floor behind my PC
and the throttle/rudder is connected to that.
