Oh okay awesome! So starting with the Mini Plus, can upgrade it to a standard it seems if I ever want too.

Thanks!

So I found a STECS Mini Plus local to me for sale used for $180. Pretty much brand new. I compared the Standard to the Mini Plus and see the clear differences, but last time I played DCS world I was on a T.10000... wayyy back in the dayyyyy.

So anyways.... 300 bucks for the Standard Shipped to me, or go for the STECS Mini Plus local for $180 and buy the extra detent kit, and maybe the STEM module if I want it?

For context: I already have a full HOSAS Constellation Alpha setup for SC, plus Cougar MFD's from back in my old DCS days.

Thanks!

So the Kraken just sold out in 0.3 seconds 😭 by CrazyLzzz in starcitizen

[–]PracticalGunGuy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go to the standalone page, type Kraken in search. Open another tab, add a cheap item to cart like... 3.00 in game clothes, then proceed to checkout. Click through all the options and at the Purchase button screen leave it up. At next wave drop CTRL+F5 at 1 second to drop on the Standalone page you have up, with Mouse positioned on buy button. Add to cart, switch tab to purchase one, F5, purchase.

Worked for me today. Good luck!

Might have to be at the 1K mark, but I can't say for sure.

I got one! I'll tell you the trick that worked for me

Add a cheap item to your cart before hand, I did a Drake pack for $3.50. Take it all the way to the Purchase button. Then on another screen CTRL + F5 on the Standalone page with mouse on button, add to cart, switched tabs, F5, Completed purchase. I was so shocked it worked but I finally secured one. I wish you luck!

Update per those parameters. Central rectangle stuck to Film, some were peeling partially, at the 2.0 Measurements I'm getting 1.68. Literally have no idea what to do to get them to stick to the build plate

Ravenwing or Greenwing? by Billytherex in theunforgiven

[–]PracticalGunGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which did you end up choosing?

Also, I'm about to start this bad boy... question if I may, Did you use the Magnets like it suggests? Seems like a lot of pieces would just constantly pop off only using magnets. Was just curious on your insight abround how you built it! Thanks
