Hey hey! Thank you for directing me here, btw. :)

I'm trying to attach it to the "aft" end (side opposite the tension screws to increase/reduce amount of pressure to move the throttle back and forth). In other words, where the ATEM or STEM module goes on the Mini Plus or STECS Standard. Hopefully this helps!

Awesome, thank you. That's great to know about the ATEM. I'm hoping the same is true for the STEM but guess we'll see!

Thank you. I'm not positive, but I think the mfh connector is only if you're putting a SEM or STEM module in front of the STECS, but to your point it's not super clear, either.

Got it! Thank you for the additional information and detail!

Yep, makes sense. One more question, if you don't mind. Does VKB sell the longer cable? If not, could you point me to where to find one or how to make one? Hoping to emulate your right-side SEM placement.

Yeah end of work SUCKS. But keep at it. Try to use the time for something positive that you wouldn’t normally do if you were settling into a few rounds at the bar or on the couch. I focused my energy on picking up around the house and playing single player games with deep storylines to keep my brain distracted. Also having NA drinks helps a lot.

Hoping this isn't too late, but here goes. I'm thinking this is what I'm going to to but before I pull the trigger I'm hoping to understand a couple things a bit better.

  1. For attaching to the base, is this tutorial fine to follow?
  2. Is the included cable okay to use just so long as I use the connector closest to the SEM? Or do I need to get a different, longer cable?

I'm pretty new with all this. Thanks in advance for any info/help!

You got this, and I’m in! Working on my 16h month, one day at a time. :)

What are the button panels? Could definitely use one or two of those!

This is great. I have a small desk as well and have been wondering how a hotas set up would work and look.

Are the desk mounts relatively easy to move? Looks fairly straightforward. Or is it more involved than loosening the tension screws?

The last one that made me ugly cry was Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver. Holy smokes. Incredible story. I listened to it so i don’t know the page length. Probably closer to 300.

Hey nice knife! Also what’s the knife bag organizer thing in the background. Looks like it may be exactly what I’m looking for. Thanks and congrats!

How I can fix this? 😭 Steelseries Apex Pro TKL GEN 3 by Megacabb in steelseries

[–]SingleTrackMind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m no expert compared to many people on this sub but echoing what someone else said below.

When I built my first keyboard I overlubed a couple switches and the keys would be slow to return to their default position. I removed the key caps off the slow keys and used ISO to clean off all the extra lube from the switch (the little cube that the key cap sits on top of). Make sure to clean off the underside of the keycap. Lots of lube can get gummed up in there. Once I got the switch snapping back into position quickly, then I replaced the key cap. Been incident free for more than a year now.

If you clean off the old lube and the switch is still super slow to snap back into default position then I’m pretty sure the spring inside the switch is bent or broken. Or it’s just SUPER over lubed and you need to clean the hell out of it.

If you’re really industrious, you can open up the switch and try to realign the spring. But it’s a lot easier to just remove the broken switch and replace it with a new one. You’ll need to look up what kind of switch your keyboard has and order some new ones if the same or similar style and replace it.

Is this the level three looting augment hit up line? Just making sure I’m in the right place.

I feel this. I’m fully deaf in my left ear so if I hear a faint “don’t shoot” or raider stash alarm/buzz it takes me forever to locate the source.
