OEM joystick and throttle made by Asian-Games and sold under various hardware distributor brands.

 

It's a low cost copy of a discontinued low cost stick and throttle made for CIS market in ~2010.

 

VKB engineer in Reddit:

 

"The stick of Flashfire V5 is rubbish. Big dead zones, poor quality management, inefficient electronics.

This joystick is a Chinese copy of the Defender Cobra M5 stick. Cobra M5 was developed by VKB over 10 years ago for the Russian company Defender."

Although stick have better, more functional design than T.16000M, expect lower quality, durability.

I use the Cobra Accelerator throttle to go along with my VKB Gladiator Mk.II and VKB T-Rudders Mk.IV. The Cobra does the job, but nothing to write home about. I'll use it until maybe one day VKB releases their throttle.
