Eggs have yolks, airplanes have yokes. :)

That's not even acceptable for a *slow* jet. Great response time if
you're simulating an oxcart. :) NEVER remote off your primary flight
controls! Even the lowest level simulator certification requires a 300ms
input to reponse time. (Level D)
As things begin to happen fast, you'll find yourself "chasing" the
airplane with that big of a control delay.
