New Virpil stick and throttle available for pre-order.

Yay! Grip, need. 😄

Yeah, the grip seems nice, if expensive. Although the price is similar to the most expensive VKB grip.

 

Not sure that they truly made the throttle any better. Is there a list of changes?

Probably around the same number of functions, just it's a different shape and made of metal. Why? To keep things fresh and customers interested. There was nothing wrong with the Mongoos.

I can see some wrong things:

- The silly ridge on the left handle, hampering access to the rotary knob on the side and making it harder to use the left handle separately

- The detent system that is inferior to the STECS seems to have been retained

- More axis instead of rotaries would be nice

Losing the slider with the detent around my middle finger on the CM3 makes this new one unusable. That axis is perfect for quick and thoughtless elevator trim/stab adjustments.
