I received it in just over 4 weeks too, just a day before Christmas! Either way, in terms of quality and build at least it seems like a toss up. Somebody has also made some printable maps so that you can record what and where you have settings. After correspondence with Virpil I have to load and create a profile for each device individually, one at a time. Where as the constellation/kosmosima grips where designed with twisting in mind. I have an in-depth write up here. * Gunfighter Mk.III is to be released, "soon". Did you a manage to get your bindings for Elite dangerous ? This alone has made me settle on getting the Virpil base.

Try contacting vkb about the broken parts, depending on how old your stick is, I've seen people post on here that they just sent them a bunch of parts to repair failed items. I've taught myself how to use Virpil software, but the VKB software looks much more complex and the documentation seems lacking (translated) with many features only described in forum posts. When it comes to calibration and programming, you will similarly need to find your own way with the community of users on YouTube and on message boards as Virpil offers next to no help in getting things squared away.

Both the MCG (right hand only) grip and Kosmosima Premium (left or right) have plenty. But that being said, if you're focusing on space games, I'm leaning towards thinking you'll prefer the gunfighter + kosmosima or virpils constellation. Virpil has the better engineers. WarBRD with more throw has some difficulties for center this heavy grip. I have the same Virpil throttle. Nice descriptions. No rush though, as we all know its not a quick in out game. It functions great and feels great. But now Im able to use the two sticks twist axes to handle strafing (right) and moving up and down (left). I want to choose the best one for nice grip and feel, reaching buttons with s/med hands, good button placement, usability with Elite and SC, easy twisting for yaw and good centring with no drift. Elite also won't recognize any button inputs that are greater than #32. Both can be gotten with twist. I found a couple of programs like this but some of them are no longer operational or are too limited to map more than 32 buttons themselves. Right? By What 'limit' are you talking about? The biggest thing for me seems to be waiting time. I will look for that in VPC config software. Plus half of what I would need from VKB is out of stock. In term of quality, feel and performance? Virpil pedals are much, much lower to the floor and accommodate a wider stance which, as a 66 man, I greatly appreciate. A lot cheaper and for someone that isn't hardcore into tons of flying will be more than sufficient. Nevertheless, late last year Virpil sent along a selection of its most popular flight gear. Was looking at getting a new one but decided I might as well upgrade to either the VKB Gunfighter or Virpril T50 and would love some advice and opinions on both setups. If you use the Virpil software there's an option somewhere to divide number of controls into groups of 32. I'd love to mount to desk but I don't have the space for a permanent setup and need to be able to move my controllers out of the way easily. Be careful about copying other peoples bindings, as most of them seem to have really weird ideas or they might do only exploring so never use pips and things like that. Those look awfully nice.

Im looking at either going the virpil mongoos T-50 CM2 base with the mongoos T-50 CM2 grip or constellation alpha grip with the 200mm S curve extension for 554.81 euro (905.89 aud) (includes shipping). So I did that, but two things happened: one was checking in Windows, I saw THREE T-50 CM throttles, although ED now could see all the panel buttons and switches.

The ideal base for Warthog - a heavy (~1KG) grip plus extension is T50CM2. TL;DR: worth waiting and paying for Virpil over VKB if I'm leaning Virpil and want as many fingertip buttons as possible? They are both superb bits of kit though and you will not regret buying either. Lastly if you have any thoughts please let me know as i know for some spending this kind of money is easy but for its hard for me as now that i have a young family money isnt just failing out of my wallet and i want to make the right purchase as i can barely afford to do it once.

Overall, I'd recommend VKB for quality and performance. The Virpil Constellation Alpha also comes in a left-handed variant. The only other thing up in the same price and perhaps build quality (I don't truly know about them either other than what I've read here, they're trying at least) is Winwing but their stick option is much more limited in overall controls. I would not have thought there were no set binds for those devices, and its up to your personal preference to programme in. I found a couple of programs like this but some of them are no longer . I could hit the gas on the main thruster to accelerate forward, rotate my ship in place, then roll left while also moving slightly down and sliding to the right all at the same time. First post here. Also, I'm not dead set on those two options by any means. Both companies use high quality metal gimbals and contactless sensors for axes.

Also, I did notice some defective materials in the batch of products that I received. I do use pedals too but haven't even mapped twist on my right hand, so that's itself not a limitation if you didn't intend to use them. Problem isn't your Virpil, Elite Dangerous cannot use past 32 buttons on a device. I also have smallish hands and found that VKB is better suited to my hands and more ergonomically designed. But, if youre looking to spend a relatively modest amount of money on a more general purpose device something that might work with terrestrial and space flight I recommend you take a look at Virpil Controls, a small European company that is doing some really remarkable work.

Please note you will lose the axis on the brake lever that comes with the Virpil grip, as the Warthog grip only supports button press on that lever.

If not, then you've configured the device incorrectly. Everything I've ever bought from VKB has been spot on out of the box. You can also remove about an inch of height from the pedals, stripping off the rubber feet and the entire lower frame, to attach them directly to a custom flight seat. Money isn't really an issue for me. Vectors which had previously been relegated to the keyboard or tiny hat switches were now integrated into the joysticks themselves. If youre playing a more hardcore flight simulator, like something from the DCS World portfolio, you probably already know about VKB. I haven't checked Virpil in a while but didn't think anything had more than the MCG Pro, with the hat over on the index finger position as well as on the thumbrest. If so, how and what programs? Vs the VKB Gunfighter MK3 with the modern combat edition grip and 200mm s curve extension for 433.13 euro ($707.21 aud) (includes shipping). I saw Vjoy mentioned as a solution but it seems to be half of the solution because it seems to require another program to virtually map the physical device (in this case a throttle). Generally you will find that Virpil is considered the top dog in the mid-range sim gear bracket. The VKB base has some nice features the Virpil base doesn't have (dampers) and overall just rates a bit higher in terms of quality/performance. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. I don't predict it being a huge game changer, but it's kinda the first time we've had an all metal grip in a high end joystick.

The VKB software also allows an enormous amount of customization like a shift key action to double up on everything or (what I find sufficient) a 'tempo' function so a quick tap vs. a longer press has 2 different operations for buttons or certain hat positions. Cookie Notice I will try them. Everything about it is perfect. While the input devices alone are excellent, Virpil also has a line of surprisingly affordable custom mounting solutions. Will cost me less money since I can just plug in my Warthog without having to buy that $50 adapter from VKB. I can't speak for Virpil's interiors but I've been inside the grip on my VKB and the way they use independent little boards with pin receptacles to link things together on the Kosmo Premium is amazing, and would be very easy to obtain parts for repair if only one control were to fail for any reason. Another highlight for me were Virpils Ace Interceptor Rudder Pedals. It was a bit of a process to pull apart my two kosmosima grips to fish out the good peg and slap it into my right hand stick, but I'm starting to get a little miffed with the durability of some of these small components. Ive had a pretty good experience with the Thrustmaster TPR Pendular Rudder Pedals for the last few years, but they hang from a large central column that takes up a lot of space in my office.

In all honesty, I am leaning toward the virpil stick, but what I want to know is are their hidden pros or cons to each stick that I should know about and is the additional ~$80US for Virpil (and the wait) worth it over the VKB? So, just to make sure I have this strait, MCG is the 'Modern Combat' Gunfighter stick and the Kosmosima is the 'Space Combat' edition of the gunfighter? Dunno how it is usable in space sims. If I want to upgrade in the future I can just buy the Gunfighter base and use the kosmosima stick (If VKB follow through and actually let you buy bases separately). They have adopted the Thrustmaster Warthog connector and improved it while staying backwards compatible. That means you can easily arrange for a much more complex dual-stick set-up. If you fly helos, you will fall in love with this. Its unique to you. Maybe you should try moving some to other ports on your computer if you haven't tried that yet.

I will be using it for flight sims mainly dcs in modern jets f14, f18 and i will have it centre mounted in a simpit. 04.08.20|The sheet for the Throttle has been updated (a button was missing). My experience with these sticks is in a HOSAS setup (With the MCG being part of my old HOTAS), so there may be some "synergy" for HOTAS binding considerations that might sway one way or another for the MCG vs Constellation.
