=== Configuring CH Products Under Windows Vista===
The CH Products Yoke and Pedals are among the most popular flight sim controls.
Flight Gear provides excellent configuration files for both the Yoke and Pedals manufactured by CH. Windows Vista recognizes and configures the USB versions of these products by default. However, it reports them as "Generic Controls." This creates an issue when Flight Gear tries to assign the appropriate controller configuration.
To overcome this you need to edit your Joystick.xml (Filghtgear\Data\Joystick.xml) file to manually assign a configuration file for Flight Gear to use.
Eg:
If you have the Yoke as MS-Windows Controller 0 and Pedals as Controller 1 then you include the following lines:
<code>
  <js n="0" include="Input/Joysticks/CH/pro-yoke-usb.xml"/>
  <js n="1" include="Input/Joysticks/CH/pro-pedals-usb.xml"/>
</code>
