This review and your vids on the Constellation Alpha and WarBRD gimbal were one of the biggest factors that kicked me over the edge into placing an order with Virpil. Still waiting for that good ol' backorder to come through, but I'm excited for my setup in Elite Dangerous taking a huge step forward in quality and function. Thanks for helping me get informed!

1:57 oops. they just announced another. i definitely will be getting the new throttle along with vkb tecs

[@teddyharvester]

So how many buttons and switches do you want on your grip? VIRPIL: yes

[@FreakinRocket]

Dude your videos are rocking, your intros are also kickass. You have certainly defined a brand and style for yourself.

[@jessecalder]

Hey thank you for the kind words Rocket I appreciate ya brother!

[@radar-kiwis-canfly-nz3492]

Good to see you back with another great Virpil review video always enjoy watching. Yes just when you've done the Gen 3 review Virpil go ahead and Tease the next Gen 4 iteration with a subtle difference photo teaser last weekend, with a possible return back to having detents by adding a lift lever type of mechanism while increasing the arm height of the throttle lever to accommodate the community outcry.

[@TAnders877]

Mine shipped today!!! I ordered it August 17th. Won the Virpil timing lottery.

[@awesome_by_default]

Jesse: "I think they've settled on a design that they like." Virpil: "We don't do that here."

[@Dezzasheep]

I find it bizarre that you haven't got more than 4k subs. Great use of studio photography and Ae.

[@alexanderrichards6403]

agreed just found his channel researching hotas's because epic is giving away elite dangerous

[@Vyrus__]

"Virpil has settled on this throttle" He says, as they have already made the CM3

[@GrimmSpector]

Was thinking the same thing hahaha

[@ragesaq]

Nice review! Your b-roll on the product is really fantastic. I'm building a chair mounted high end hotas setup and I've been hitting up a lot of your reviews for straight talk and good info. Keep up the good content!

[@ryanw1433]

Back-Ordered my CM3 at the end of January (2021) and received it in about 3 weeks in the U.S. No duties had to be paid. The left throttle handle had a problem that rendered the buttons inoperable - customer service is sending me a replacement internal cable (my other choice was to send it back at their expense). Happy with everything else so far.

[@Soldier4USA2005]

This is the most comprehensive review of this product. Close up views with sounds as you use each feature, comparisons to previous models, etc. Detents is a big thing for space sims, as many times you either want to be at 0 thrust or have to be at 0 thrust. Constantly trying to find 0 manually is probably a pain. And the button/hat positioning on the grip is a big downside for the reasons given. Add in the price point and lack of availability due to them never having enough stock and it makes me want to get something else. Especially when the total price for the throttle, stick, and stick base comes out to $700 or higher. Great video!!!!

[@chasegarrison3295]

Completely agree about the detent's. If people had issues with them breaking, then Virpil should have built them better instead of doing away with them. Especially at this price point.

Another fantastic video - more reinforced frustration at the perpetual backorder of Virpil Grip/Base/Throttle products. While the VKB "IN STOCK" icon blinks at me. Mocking me.

As you said, the lack of a detent is huge. My Warthog doesnt have it either. Terrestrial type of flight sims isn't a big deal, however in space sims it is an issue. Great review brother!

[@patrikstrandquist1875]

Really good review. No bias towards anything. I am looking to get one of these throttles my self. What keeps me off is the delivery time. Keep up the good work.

[@revmatic32]

Well done breakdown of the throttle. I got one a few months ago and I really like it. It's been great for DCS and now using in MS Flight Simulator.

[@harpoon_bakery162]

got one as well, how do you like the travel of the main thrusters (throttle grips)? when in the front most position, it blocks some of the other controls from view but I know a lot of people who think it needs a longer travel or taller throttle grips. I like it thus far but I might consider the CM3 when it is unveiled due to detents being reintroduced and some redesign of the throttles themselves. I always wanted a backlit unit so i could read all the control descriptions in dimmer lighting, but I'm not sure we'll ever get that.... all the stuff on my wishlist would probably drive the unit up another 100 euros

[@irishpat64]

Yea,Long time Warthog user here,I bought a Virpil Warbird Base after breaking my TM Gimball,I was so impressed I bought the Throttle in May and Love it,You do make great points as far as Buttons getting in the way of actually using the grip for jockeying Thrust****BTW*** There's a rumor a Throttle with Detents is in The PipeLine!! :)

I LOVED the controller ASMR! Seriously, it gave me a really good idea on the feel of the controls. Thanks Man.

[@crashbar77]

Really enjoyed this video. Thanks so much for the comparisons. I have the Gen1 and feel no need to upgrade, but the new throttles look great.

[@peterkallgren]

I actually bought the first one for the detents but then really wanted the slew on the second one. But I didn't want to give up the detents. Bought the second one too and swapped the base. Was easy. Now I've got the detents with the second gen handle with slew. Best of both worlds. Sold the first gen one that now was missing detents. Luckily, there are people that don't want detents. I was very clear about them being removed in my ad ofcourse. I don't think it is as trivial to modify the 3rd version to house the detent mechanism, but I would really like the smaller footprint. By the way, this is an excellent review, good work by Snake Eater!

[@karlhungus545]

Really nice review and it does look like a great throttle. I'm still using my 20+ year old X45 (everything still works good) but I'm thinking of upgrading. Unfortunately ordering Virpil stuff is just insanely expensive. It would cost me almost $1,100 CDN ($809 USD) for the VFX grip, Warbird base and CM2 throttle (more than a new RTX 3080). I can 'afford' it just fine, I just can't bring myself to spend so much cash to play games (DCS & IL2). I'd need to play it at least 2 - 4hrs a day to justify the cost and that isn't about to happen. The Warthog setup however can be had here as low as $588 CDN ($433 USD - with tax, for stick and throttle) when Costco has them in stock...which may be a while at this juncture, but I'm in no hurry. Is the Virpil stuff really worth almost 2 times the cost?? I actually think I'd prefer the VKB GF3 to the Virpil stick. That one alone is $650 CDN though. Anyways, long story short, do you have any plans to review the VKB NXT stick? That one would cost a little less than the Warthog stick for me (about $300 CDN by the time it gets here) but I suspect the Warthog is quite a step up from the NXT?

[@karlhungus545]

@@jessecalder Awesome. It's be great if you could compare it to the Warthog.

[@Ghostwulf.J.M.]

Hi Snake, I love the CM2, luckily I got one a few weeks ago. I bought it togheter with the matching tablemount from Monstertech Germany. This was really expensive, but definitly worth it. The software sadly lacks obviously of a function to bind key functions.

[@alexandsimba]

Welcome back. Love the review style you have for these videos. I agree about it having too many buttons on the throttle itself. That's the one thing I love about my warthog throttle since I use it a lot in space combat.

[@virulentvision9489]

Bloody awesome product review. I've been slowly working my way through your vids to try and work out what to purchase, as getting something over in New Zealand is going to be a one way ticket for the product. Thank you for the in depth and critical reviews.

[@preditorian8069]

Great review, but I would like to point out like you I love detents, but after setting up a virtual one using their software I must say I dont miss it at all. Making the entire movement adjustable has had some surprising benefits, like instead of the whole throw being 0%-100%, I can make the whole throw be 0%-70% at the press of a button. This makes things like flying helicopters in DCS far easier for me. I recommend you give it a try. 91W

[@kellycleveland]

They could put a detente enabler on the side of the box dead even with the throttle. That way you have a choice of both worlds. An easy push button that engagement process or spring action small push button on top. I think that would be a great idea or added change. If they do. I would be nice to that my idea made a difference by giving it the the name Cleveland mute Switch or KC mute switch. I think it shows you honor your viewer's and fan's of that product. I want nothing from it. It lets us know we matter. Thank you for your time.

You just earned a sub man. Incredible attention to detail in your reviews. Can't wait for more.

[@fubarace1027]

I briefly saw a window where the 2nd generation throttle was available, but I didn't realize it had the SLEW on it else I would have bought it. I think this was around Christmas. Since the new ordering system (wait list system) went into effect, I ordered immediately the Constellation Alpha grip, got it after 10 or so weeks. Once I received the grip and felt good about the new system, I ordered the new throttle. Roughly a month later I got the email from Virpil saying it's gonna ship soon. So hopefully I get my new throttle in the next month or so. International shipping, I'm keeping my expectations low for how quickly I get the item, but I remember from tracking the grip it took some time for it to get to Europe (Customs hassles I'm sure), but once it got to Munich, I got the grip next day in Houston Texas. That impressed me. I'm still wondering if I might have been better off getting a gen 2 when I had a small window as it "seems" to have more base buttons. I had read the dials that were removed were good for handling SRS controls, unsure what I'd use them for in other games I play, so whatever... This is the first review I've found that compares and contrasts the versions, so listening to this is really informative. The clicky-er buttons makes sense to me, I went from a WarBRD grip to a Con Alpha grip, and it made the same transition in terms of moving to "clicky-er", easier to actuate buttons; this is important with the pinky button. On the WarBRD grip you had to have reasonable pinky strength to use the button, this isnt true of the Alpha buttons. Good video!

[@virdog]

Great videos! They helped me pull the trigger on the throttle and the Constellation ALPHA to replace my x56. Both on back order so I hope they don't take toooo longer to get all the way to eastern Canada.

The X56 is starting to become an aged model now (it was released in 2016) and Honeycomb is also coming with a throttle and a stick in Q2/Q3 of 2021, so I would suspect Logitech and Thrustmaster to come up with competing models in the coming year as well. I'm a bit disappointed that Virpil removed the covered switch but they moved that over to their VPC control panel.

[@mururoa7024]

The lack of detent is a dealbreaker for me, but given how it's build I can probably 3D print a part to go between the 2 arms of the throttle to simulate a detent through friction against a notch. Not pretty but would probably work.

[@airviator9194]

Lol and this comes out roughly a day after Virpil teased ANOTHER throttle that features detents.!

[@taco_loco4467]

They teased a new throttle to replace the CM2?

[@PhantomMark]

Idea...... On the arch between the throttle grips you could experiment with fitting a rubber block (tapered at the ends into a point) which angles out into the path of the arms ever so slightly so you need to push past the rubber to get into your "detent"

[@atreides-]

I have a gen2 and love it. I have wished for 'detents' (never knew it had a name) for a while as I fly VR. I've yet to find a use for the silver up/down toggle switches on the right as they fire the same button signal regardless of position. How have other people utilised them?

[@1wordtroll]

Excellent review, thank you. Just wanted to add then when using a throttle in VR even when the movement is mirrored visually having physical feedback through a detent or detents is even more useful especially if they are customisable. Poor Monstertech trying to keep up with changes to the base plate mount.

[@MrJBARRON]

Great channel. Love the reviews I've watched so far

[@ArktikosAdventures]

Great review! Having two of their T-50CM sticks and the WarBRD base+mounts I'm very happy with their quality so far. Some of the buttons on their sticks could use a little more work,such as the CMS (thumb button) on the T-50CM2 giving erroneous readings, and I hope they've worked out those issues for this unit. I would love to upgrade to one of these but only if it included a detent and throttle cut-off. Take note Virpil. Cheers!

[@OldManGaming69]

Being an aircraft mechanical Engineer the detent is important to prevent you going into throttle regions like reheat so that extra force to push it through the detent is essential, especially when simulators don't give the full effect of lighting up the back end. Even my Saitek X52 Pro has a top end and bottom end throttle detent and probably costs a 1/4 of what that does. I also 3d printed a mod ( www.thingiverse.com/thing:2532106 ) to give me some extra buttons and rotary encoders and i'm extremely happy with it. Great review by the way.

[@horstweihrauch1]

agree, wouldnt spend the extra money for a no detent throttle nowadays

[@jamesm7414]

I have the A-10 warthog HOTAS myself, in my opinion it works well for pretty much everything, only issue is no detent for afterburners although the whole package is very much worth it if you can afford it.

Same here. Have the Saitek X52 Pro and „downgraded“ to a TM FCS because the Saitek starts to drift after ≈30min until you unplug it again. It’s basically unusable -.- The FCS is ok, it works perfect but lacks on inputs. Virpil will be my next setup!

[@RoundCanopyK9]

Hey there, it's ya boi, Boog again....once again your review has caused my wallet despair.... Another phenomenal review that covers all the things that someone who can't get hands on with an item before purchasing it.

[@Madeyes6]

The trouble with these things made by simmers or PC hardware manufacturers is lack of historical data to design their kit. Yes the warthog is based on the A10s throttle quadrant but the A10 is a working combat aircraft. That means it’s had 100’s of thousands of hours in design, development & use in real life combat situations. This mans it does exactly what it’s designed to do with the minimum of issues. Virpil however don’t have that data available to them. This shows in the design. The first thing I noticed was the flap lever. The flaps are used generally twice. On takeoff & on landing. So why are they between the pilot & the throttles? Only the harrier has a control in that position that I know of & this is because the nozzle lever is used a lot during flight. Most other jets I’ve been involved with have the flap switch outboard of the throttles to keep that area clear. This is a basic design flaw imho. Secondly as mentioned in the video the buttons on the throttle look badly positioned & there’s possibly too many in such a small area. The chances of hitting the wrong button or using the wrong hat are huge with this design. Again in a real throttle with its design this is reduced as far as possible because of the potentially disastrous problems this may cause. KISS is a genuine thing in aviation & this throttle box is not simple. Personally I think they need to get back to real combat aircraft & take the lead from those designs.

[@zentriceggofficial]

I agree. I wouldn't buy a fictional design like this. Winwing are offering more authentic products from what I've seen.

[@Smokeyr67]

Madeyes6 the problem for manufacturers is that they have to make 1 product to cater to a range of users and various uses. Unless you go the full Thrustmaster, your never going to satisfy everyone.

[@Madeyes6]

Shane Robinson I understand that. And I understand that there’s many, many different throttle box configurations on real aircraft. But the general layout & ergonomics were figured out many years ago & have been fine tuned for & by pilots to make them as useable & efficient as possible. To ignore that & go your own way isn’t a good idea imho.

[@Smokeyr67]

Madeyes6 so you want a HOTAS setup made for each individual aircraft? The manufacturers don’t throw out the ergonomic rules, they just have to deal with the reality that their market is hugely varied, they have to make something that is usable for anything from a small handed child to a6ft 13 inch tall monster with huge paws! Aircraft (particularly combat) manufacturers are lucky that the demographics for their products are “pre sorted” into people of generally the same size and shape so they can assume that if they position buttons and switches on their HOTAS controls where Mr or Ms average can reach them, then all users of that aircraft will be able to comfortably operate them. The good news is that with a bit of imagination, a few tools and a couple of hours work you can modify the joysticks and throttles to fit your own personal need.

[@Madeyes6]

Shane Robinson no. I’ve never once said that in fact I’ve said the opposite. I know manufacturers can’t make each aircrafts throttle box. And unless a 13 yr old has a MASSIVE paper round he isn’t buying any of these products. These items are aimed at serious simmers with £2000+ rigs. Not at 13 yr old kids. I’m not sure you’re not just a arguing for the sake of arguing at the moment. The military aircraft world has already figured out the best place to place these controls. It’s been doing it for years & it works. If you wish to argue that point then I think you have a slightly over inflated perception of your abilities. I’m talking facts in aircraft design. Not whether it not a 13 yr old has £2000+ pocket money to buy the kit needed to use these controllers & if the company needs to cater for that 0.01% of kids who can afford it. The layout in this throttle box goes against standard combat aircraft design imho & I don’t think that something that basic should be missed. It’s my opinion. And the aviation industry. You’re very much entitled to disagree with us. Regardless of how wrong you are 😃

[@aleksilepisto7282]

Kinda sucks no detent makes it almost worthless for anything with afterburners. I guess you could add something physical that you could feel on the throttle as you push through but for the price, it should have detents. It's a really basic thing for flight sims. Hm. Now I'm not really sure which throttle to get. I also don't think I like how much there is on the actual grip either.

Up until a week ago I was mainly playing Star Citizen, and I have dual Virpil Constellation Deltas with a custom throttle mod on each stick. But now I'm flying around the world in MS Flight Simulator 2020, and am seriously thinking about a dedicated throttle. I would have to balance the extra cost of this vs. its build quality and capability, compared to something like a T.16000M throttle (my teenage son has one of those lying around he's not using).
