Looks like the first one sells individual parts, while the second one more sells complete systems with collective, cyclic and pedals.

Or if your up for a challenge, make your own. There are a few of us on here who have done using real helicopter collectives or completely hand made and connected to a joystick interface card with great results. And it'd cost a fraction of those ready made products.

Flaming squirrel, check my thread on it from my profile. There's also others by Molevitch and Fragbum amongst others. It's not difficult - maybe a bit time consuming but that's half the fun

FlamingSquirrel, even a bit of handiness can get you a great useful collective. I built my first one using an aluminium crutch I found at the side of the road, some plumbing compression joints and copper pipe, a bit of old wood, couple of Hall sensors and some magnets robbed from my son's old toybox. The key here is the Bodnar board.... that makes communication with Windows a doddle.

i'm guessing that would be a collective thing,.. :D

Control is an illusion which usually shatters at the least expected moment.

Gazelle Mini-gun version is endorphins with rotors. See above.

 

Currently rolling with a Asus Z390 Prime, 9600K, 32GB RAM, SSD, 2080Ti and Windows 10Pro, Rift CV1. bu0836x and Scratch Built Pedals, Collective and Cyclic.

Well, we would need a collective noun to describe a group of collective enthusiasts.... collectively.

Komodo dead? Any alternatives for a collective?

 

Komodo does seem to be back , fantastic news. I have the full set of UH-1 controls, which are brilliant. I hope Rich now has time to work on his force trim system!
