CM3 ministick question .


Svsmokey

Recommended Posts

So i am considering getting the CM3 throttle to upgrade from my CH Pro . The CH throttle has a thumb-operated ministick which i find very easy to use . 

The CM3 , on the other hand , appears to have an index-finger operated ministick which , in conjunction with the largish grip and rotary travel , looks like it may be a bit less convinient to use for people with medium-size hands ?

I would be interested to hear of other people's experience with the ministick - thanks !

No problem here , I do have somewhat large hands but I doubt med size hands would be any problem either.

A thought, I use both a Virpil throttle and the CH unit.

I use the CH throttle on it's left hand side, such that I can use the handle like a pistol grip.  I tend to use it for control of TPODs, or the gunners position in the Apache.

Once you wrap that left hand around the CM3 throttle you will find it hard to want to wrap it around anything else...
