    Highly recommended for space simulations

    Hotas fits well in the hands Buttons are good and easy to reach. Joystick is very precise with the Hall sensors compared to my previous Logitech Extreme 3D Pro. Button mapping is great and very easy plus profiles for Star Citizen and many other games. 

    Pro

    • good workmanship
    • Precise
    • Very good key programming

    Contra

    • Not the cheapest
    • Space requirement

    Ok Hotas, but for the price rather inferior workmanship

    Switched from a Logitech Extreme 3d pro to this product. Majority satisfied, but there are some annoying aspects. Play FSX, Prepar3d and IL-2 1946 with it.

    Pro

    • Thumb sticks are awesome
    • Enough functions for my needs
    • Most switches are easy to reach
    • Precise axes...

    Contra

    • Machining quality: Throttle stop feels (and sounds) inferior, 1 thumbwheel scratches
    • Twist has far too strong a spring
    • Insecure stand of throttle unit. Best to screw on/clamp
    • ...Except around zero. Requires quite large deadband

    If you can try it before you buy it, do that. It's massively increased my enjoyment of Elite:Dangerous, so I'm not complaining.

    Generally not a bad product. I'm happy with my purchase. The thrust and stick provides massive customisation, owing to its many many buttons, knobs, and thumbsticks to twiddle.

    Pro

    • Good value
    • Lots of buttons to press, toggles to flip, and knobs to twiddle

    Contra

    • The thrust control sticks. This is due to too much high friction grease. This can be fixed.
    • The yaw control is very heavy compared to other stick movements. This cannot be adjusted.
