Description
MOZA AY90 Force Feedback Yoke Base is built for pilots who want every climb, flare, and gust to travel straight through their hands instead of disappearing into a spring. With 4.2 Nm roll torque and 90 N push-pull force feedback alongside a 180° roll axis with ±90° travel, it delivers convincing control authority while remaining compact enough for both desktop and cockpit installations. Add configurable switches, vivid RGB lighting, and a sturdy composite housing, and you've got a yoke base that's ready for anything from circuit practice to cross-country adventures.
What Sets the Moza AY90 Force Feedback Yoke Base apart?
-
Force Feedback That Changes How You Fly Many yoke systems in this price range still rely on springs or belts, but the AY90 delivers motor-driven force feedback that lets pilots feel changing aircraft loads throughout a flight. From runway vibrations and trim adjustments to aerodynamic resistance during steep turns, the controls constantly communicate what the aircraft is doing, making manual flying feel considerably more engaging and informative.
-
Compact Size Without Feeling Compromised Despite offering substantial force output, the AY90 maintains a compact footprint that works equally well on a desktop or a dedicated cockpit rig. Many users appreciate that it avoids the bulky dimensions often associated with force feedback hardware, making it easier to install while still providing generous control travel and a reassuringly solid feel during demanding manoeuvres.
-
Cockpit Controls Built Into the Base Instead of treating the yoke purely as a control axis, MOZA integrates rocker switches, sliders, rotary controls, and a five-way hat switch directly into the base. These additional inputs reduce reliance on the keyboard and allow commonly used aircraft functions to remain within easy reach, particularly useful when flying general aviation aircraft with frequent trim, lighting, and avionics adjustments.
-
Designed to Grow With Your Cockpit The aluminum quick-release mechanism and expansion mounting points make the AY90 much more flexible than fixed yoke systems. It supports rapid yoke swaps while leaving room for custom gauges, displays, and accessories through third-party adapters. For cockpit builders who enjoy refining their setup over time, this flexibility makes future upgrades considerably easier without replacing the entire base.

The AY90 is designed to fit neatly into a wide variety of flight simulator setups. It supports desktop mounting with included desk clamps, 80/20-style aluminum profile cockpits, and MOZA's aluminum quick-release system for fast yoke changes without tools. Dedicated expansion points on the top of the base also allow additional gauges, displays, and custom accessories to be added as a cockpit grows. It is not intended for console flight simulation systems.
Configuration is handled through MOZA Cockpit software, where every switch, rotary control, and lighting function can be customised. The programmable inputs make it easy to adapt the base to everything from light general aviation aircraft to larger turboprops. Because the controls are fully remappable, the AY90 integrates comfortably into both compact desktop setups and more elaborate home-built cockpits.
The MOZA AY90 Force Feedback Yoke Base is a PC-only device compatible with Microsoft Flight Simulator, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, X-Plane, DCS World, War Thunder, and other major PC flight simulators that support force feedback hardware. It is not compatible with PlayStation or Xbox consoles, making it best suited to dedicated PC-based flight simulation environments.
