Looking forward to the coming updated review. I have one of Tianhang's sticks enroute. I think his base will be the way to go for me (for now) since I can mount it to an aluminum extrusion on my chair. I think I'll ultimately wind up with an Invictus after I can get a townhouse or something and have the room for a full pit. Also because anything with ITAR controlled components is automatically cool.

Dang, man. I friggin hate hard center detents. I fly the A320 irl and I actually paid attention to the feel of the stick the other day. There is a center detent, but it's super soft and you move in and out of it almost without noticing. I ordered the Tianhang SSC last night but, well, I'm a bit of a flightsim gear whore so I might end up ordering the Invictus one too. I look forward to your in-pit review. So, which mounting option do you think will work best in your pit? The TH has that bottom plate that extends forward, and the Invictus has the plate that extends downward and attaches to the pit sidewall. The TH looks like it might conflict with the right AUX panel, but tough to say until I get mine. Thanks for the video, man! And congrats on the left seat!

@@NegdoshaManido thanks dude! I’m a 320 guy as well! As for mounting I’m unsure… both sticks will require some pretty major surgery to the pit to make work but “ha ha jigsaw go brrrrr” and I have plenty of scrap wood so I’ll make it work. It’ll be in my adder fanged series, what I decide to do with it. Something. Idk what. Something.

Full disclosure: I hate the cougar board too. I’ve solved the board issue with an off the shelf board but I’m trying to make a custom board that’s better for it. My hangup is one of the two crystal oscillators on it. I haven’t found a good solution yet. But, I’m close.

I was eagerly awaiting for you comparison between these 2 bases. Now I don’t know what to do lol. Haven’t got a cougar board to use it with the VFS so I was leaning towards the TH base. Guess I’ll wait for the VFS 3.0? I was so hoping the TH would be the definitive base
@BlackSockRepublic4 ай бұрын
@@The_ViperProject I was too, to be honest. If you’ve got the money, getting your hands on an old cougar is worth it just to harvest the board…. And then you can go the VFS route. Chris has a lot of stuff going on though, and said don’t expect the 3.0 for a couple of months sadly :/

I'm not sure how you can do a "definitive" review with the base bar-clamped to your desk like that. Of course it's not going to feel good.... You claim to care about "realism", meanwhile the base is wriggling around on your desk. These things require a lot of force to move. Mounting it inadequately is not going to yield good results.

@@atIas-hugged oh, really? That’s weird because clamping worked great with the Invictus. I was able to tell just fine… but hey, don’t take My word for it. Go order them both yourself and see!
