Hi drewski, interesting thing about angled flight sticks in military planes: they are usually angled a bit to the left so that pilot don’t bend their wrists. By twisting the stick slightly left, it forces pilots to have like a bear claw grip, and that better for when your pulling G’s (cause you don’t bend your wrist)
@jmstallard
@jmstallard 4 жыл бұрын
The sticks that are angled to the left are center mounted, correct? That's so their hand stays in a more comfortable position relative to their forearm angle, which will also be to the left.

I wanna say thank you drewski and Dam you at the same time!!! I saw your video about the virpil setup and decided to pull the trigger and upgrade from the X-56 and its night and day difference. I would say that its the best HOTAS that i have ever had and would say its the best you can get. I ordered the mongoose 3 along with the VPC Constellation ALPHA Prime and it is amazing. Worth every cent. Im a DCS guy i fly the 18 and the tomcat and i can tell a massive difference between flying with the X-56 compared to the virpil.

Thank you so much for this. I love the stick but after a year a few years ago I had this problem. I have no experience fixing fiddly internal electronics and didn't think there was a fix, and wanting to experiment with HOSAS for Star Citizen I bought the two-joystick bundle and that way I would have two joystick as back-ups in case the same problem happened. The 2nd broke a few days ago in the same way, I switched to my third thinking I do not want to buy any more of these. I went looking and found your video, gathered my courage and fixed both the old joysticks and it worked really well. Thanks for doing this fix and I appreciate the thing you said at the beginning, the part about you not being an electronics expert...being the same way it made this a little less intimidating to attempt.

I’m glad I got my Logitech X56 for free. It feels like a big hunk of cheap plastic. They didn’t even bother to put a metal plate at the bottom of the throttle to make it feel “premium”. Would’ve been pissed if I had spent $250 on it. Is simply collecting dust on my desk now. It’ll be a breath of fresh air when I upgrade to this kit! Gonna get my Valve Index first though!

Rudder pedals are great. I've used them with the X52 in the past. I used them to yaw of course in Elite Dangerous. Makes much more sense than turning the joystick roll into a yaw. I actually wound up setting the joystick twist to be the vertical thrust axis so I could more easily land gently. Still had problems though as its such a limited range especially when you include enough deadzone to keep from drifting.

I own first iteration of Virpil Mongoose and first version of t 50 throttle (the one with detents, and honestly that version looks even better, kinda shame virpil doesn't make them anymore). Everything Drewski said is true. But im gonna add couple of things. You can customize the feeling of many components, with the base you also get springs and cams, cams are the reason whole thing feels very smooth and precise, ball bearings are rolling on those cams and are "tensioned" by different springs, the profile of those cams can give you different feel to stick movement, you want your stick to have very firm "midline" split? No problem, or you want to not feel when you transition from right to left and not increase tension from bigger angle? there is space sim cam for that. So you can customize even the feeling of your stick to what you want, and Virpil will not void your warranty, they actively encourage changing those components. Another thing is software, at first is very daunting and complex but you can do so much with it, in 15:04 you can disable mode switching and make this knob behave like 5 different buttons, so I binded flaps positions to it. What even more crazy is that software will detect anything you attach to pcb inside throttle.... im not kidding, you can attach some button, solder it to pcb and it will work (dunno why would you want even more buttons but hey). The whole thing is perfect, its like playing with old solid German mechanical calculator, and immersion in elite is beyond great. Oh you can also split your throttle to two virtual devices so Elite will detect all buttons (Elite cannot detect more then 32 buttons per device).

I recently got the full Virpil setup. It's pretty expensive when you get a full setup, but man is it good. The Constellation sticks have even more buttons, they have both a left and right for space sim games, and another xbox stick on it. Also, not sure if that stick has twist, but there is a screw you can tighten to lock it from twisting (assuming you would be using the pedals if you decide to do this).

This is some really cool stuff, been wanting to go back into flight sims again, was waiting for an awesome SIM (I used to play DID - F2000 and at that points was reading books about aeroplane tactics and such just to get better). Somewhere in the attic, I have my old Thrustmaster set up. The things about the buttons brings back memories about have a button on my throttle that switched all buttons either in taking off & landing mode, fly mode and battle mode. The fact of using flaps to just park behind my friends and fly on their ass. I just went to the website and it is a pity that they don't sell the full package they sold you. You actually have to understand the product before you can order it :))). Awesome video... I might pick up flight sims again!

I'd owned the Saitek X52 since 2016. Back in 2020 I started getting more and more into Star Citizen and Elite Dangerous and really wanted something better. It wasn't until 2023 that I finally made the jump to buy dual VKB Gladiator NXT Evo's for both hands--right one being the regular Premium stick, the left one being the Omni-Throttle version. I loved this combination to bits, but circumstances brought me to a point where I could go a step beyond that, so I made the jump to dual Virpil Constellation Alpha Primes, with a Z-Axis Extension for the left-hand stick and now I'm waiting on the MongoosT-50CM3 throttle to be delivered.

For those who are wondering about the total price of the whole setup, it's about 1260 dollars right there. 170 for the joystick, 290 for the base, 370 for the throttle, 300 for the rudder, 70 for the desk mount, and 60 for the stick extension. Keep in mind, this is just the joystick + throttle + rudder... You also need a high end computer to run simulator 'games' as well, and that's probably well over another 2000 to 3000 dollars extra that go into the desktop itselt and the screen(s). Definitely not a budget setup...

Track IR is indeed really cheaply made. I broke my headset attachment (though it's still usable) and I DO NOT mistreat any of my stuff. I just wish I could figure out how to mouse look in DCS. I want to use my mouse to look around the cockpit, and click flight controls, instead of having to setup my Track IR, and just cannot figure it out. Pressing Alt-C will get me in the toggle mode with the yellow click indicator, and that works but pressing Alt-C to exit that mode and moving the mouse around does nothing. I've tried searching online, asking on streams, posting on forums, but still haven't gotten any help. I bought the P-51 Mustang but haven't been able to really fly it yet. 😢
