Definitiv Vietnam Außerdem Skandiavien (Schweden / Norwegen) Da passen einige Module gut dazu, mit anderen lassen sich Was-wäre-wenn Missionen bauen.

I use a Monstertech Mount (the smaller one), but with a VKB-Stick. Fantastic quality and very sturdy. I plan on using an extensions with my VKB Stick & have been told, that everything longer than 100mm should be used with the longer version of the MT mount. So maybe you should keep that in mind, when considering to upgrade.

Thx a ton for your response. That's a great idea. :thumbup:

Thank you mate. So much needed.

I can only agree 100% :D

Quick feedback after a few weeks of "stick-time"... The F-14 Grip is a great addition to the VKB lineup, in my opinion. I really love the quality and the feeling of the stick. All buttons feel absolutely great, with the trigger beeing the only exception, as the response when going through the 2 stages feels a bit strange to me (mushy ?!). The weapon selector is fantastic and has some great feeling to it, when used. The POV hat really feels solid. Texturing of the grip is great. The plastic in general does not feel cheap, but great. Overall I would like my MCG Pro to feel that way. Great Grip VKB. Keep them coming. It`s time for some throttle now... :D
-
Thanks for the ideas and the feedback so far. I think I will go for the 100mm extensions, as soon as it will be available again. This may fit my setup best. The long desk mount could be overkill, IMHO.

+1 for Monstertech also :thumbup: Great Engineering. Fantastic built quality. Sturdy and thought through packaging. Price may seem a bit hard, first. But I will definitely go for MT again, when I update my throttle. Gunfighter did fit 100%. The neat adapter for the blackbox is nice. Wasn`t aware that it would be included. :D Have to find a solution for my cable-management though... :music_whistling:

Gute Idee. Hat mit 7GB freigeschaufelt :D Danke an alle. Syrien-Karte ist im Einkaufskorb. :thumbup: Edith: Der gesamte User-Ordner ist 7GB groß, man muss auch genau lesen...

Received my Gunfighter MKIII plus MCG Pro & F14-Stick and I am blown away by the quality and the feeling of those sticks. Huge improvement for me, coming from the T16000. Question for my right now is, which extensions should be used, when using a deskmount from monstertech, if I want to improve the overall feeling? Is 200mm too much, even when used with the long deskmount? Are 100mm sufficient, to eliminate the need for curves?
-
Da häng ich mich mal dran. Kann mal jemand schauen, wieviel Platz die Syrien-Karte einnimmt? Habe noch gute 190GB frei. Wenn ich meinen PC neu aufsetze, wird es Zeit DCS auf eine eigene 500Gig SSD umzuziehen (oder diese andere WW2-Flugsimulation zu löschen, die da jetzt noch installiert ist :D )
-
Thx for the measurements. :thumbup: I have contacted VKB about it, since that small plastic part to change the resistance of the 2nd stage trigger seems to be missing too.
-
Hey @ all. I just received my F14 grip & so far I`m anbsolutely blown away by its quality and the feel of it. Just a quick and dirty question; shouldn't there be a screw included, to lock the twist mechanism of the grip? If so, mine seems to be missing. That's not a big deal, as long as someone could tell me the size for the screw, so that I could me one at the local Home Depot ;)

How? If I want to proceed to the checkout, I still get notified, that due to the pandemic, shipping to my country is currently unavailable. Should I contact you via your shop, so that we can find a solution? ;)

VKB GLADIATOR NXT - Entry Level Taken to the NXT Level
Canadus replied to UIV's topic in VKB-SIM Flight Gear
You are indeed correct, Sir. I just wanted to point out, that my personal experience with VKB was a good one & that oders, if available, will be shipped out fast (at least here in western europe). Your experience seems to have been a different one & I can understand your frustration to some point. My understanding would be, that you didn`t had to pay for the NTX up front & if you have chosen to go for another HOTAS, good for you. Most likely, I would have done the same thing, would I have been in your shoes. I, for myself, have been waiting for more than a year, before I decided to gor for one of the available Gunfighters... :D -
VKB GLADIATOR NXT - Entry Level Taken to the NXT Level
Canadus replied to UIV's topic in VKB-SIM Flight Gear
In defense of VKB; the shipment of the Gunfighter MkIII, plus MCG Pro & F-14 Stick took 3 days, from placing the order, before it left the Netherlands. So it is possible, to get a VKB product on your desk ;) The re-stocking of the european shop has definitely improved, compared to previous years, IMHO. -
Why should I be afraid? :D How shall we do it? Ordering via your shop?
-
No shipping to western europe at the moment, because of the pandemic? That`s a bummer :noexpression:

Virpil Mongoose CM2 Throttle Feedback and Reviews?
Canadus replied to Lynchsl62's topic in VIRPIL Controls
Maybe the price-tag & its availability? If I would order a CM2 right now, how long would it take for it to arrive in western europe? It also would cost me - all taxes and shipping included - ~420€. That`s close to a complete WH set. We`re not talking about quality of the WH here. Just pure costs :D -
Ich fürchte, so viel Zeit hab ich dann doch nicht :D Ich bin mir sicher, dass VKBs Throttle richtig gut wird. Allerdings nehmen sich die Jungs auch richtig viel Zeit, bis ihr Produkt auf den Markt kommt. Ich warte wohl doch erstmal auf wieder verfügbare Warthogs, bzw. auf ein vielleicht gutes Angebot auf dem Gebrauchtmarkt.

But honestly. Only 26 days left and still a huge amount to be funded / backed. Guess this will hold off even more people. I personally find it a bit overprized too. As someone mentioned above; most likely some of the issues have to be ironed out in this first batch. But I admire that at least someone steps forward with some new idea.
