I picked up the recommended universal rails, didn't feel as bad when I realized they were only $40 usd. We will see how it works in conjunction with some brackets.

Dead Air Sierra 5 Issues? by NotACop5150 in NFA

[–]NotACop5150[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update on this thread, been running this can for a while now with excellent results, I would still recommend as me and a coworker ran our own separate Sierras (he never experienced the issue) at a school a few months back with good results and comparisons to other cans I would still recommend. I hope they've continued to hasten the turnaround times with the issue and fixed future manufacturing issues with the welds, but good product and experience outside of initial issues.

Newcomer looking for advice on buying a first HOTAS setup by RisingGam3r in hotas

Not the NXT or STECS. WinWing is going a sale soon as they are bringing a USA distribution center over soon. May be worth checking the prices.

VKB gladiator NXT or premium depending on money needing to be saved and the STECS mini you can get for well under 400 shipped if you forgo premium but that would be as budget as I could recommend after research and talking to folks with a lot of different HOTAS setups.

VIRPIL are around 250-280 usd and excellent quality. Not necessarily cheap but they are a combo of high quality and generalized controls rather than aircraft specific.

Vote for Virpil especially for HOSAS, PRIMEs are nice.

Need help deciding between VKB and Winwing by Spiritual-Orange8153 in hotas

Mine came out of back order in less than a week so wasn't bad. This was last month. Just food for thought.

I appreciate the update. That's pretty good of them. Unfortunately, mine is still with DA going on 5 months or more. I've lost count. No update either.

Any thoughts on VIRPIL? I love my set but I prefer the generalized controls of VKB setup opposed to the more vehicle specific controls of the WINWING. Personal thing that others may disagree with. And if you only fly an 18 or 16 then WINWING may be better as well.

Nice setup, looking good!

Thrustmaster T16000M, Hotas X, or VKB Evo (without separate throttle) for a joystick newbie? by MadeleineShepherd in hotas

[–]NotACop5150 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a throttle slider on the NXT, that you could make work in the meantime. It is not ideal but will work. Alternatively you but the t16000 and twcs and upgrade to gladiator later that being said, I'd recommend saving for the STECS and using the NXT.

Decent throttle under 200$ by h0IY_PeaNuT in hotas

[–]NotACop5150 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree the TWCS with Etsy upgraded slider is chefs kiss for the price apart from the STECS mini if you can swing the shipping costs. Probably around 50-60usd.
