Got my STECS 8 month ago and luv it.
Concerning the grip base and access to the three adjustable dampening screws... As soon as I opened the package I would make a template of the base plate with cardboard and mark the best location to drill access holes in the baseplate by punching holes in the right spots and use the template to mark the hole positions then drill them. 5 min job.
I've always been very happy with VKB. Their prices aren't bats**t crazy, it holds up very well in my experience, and they have a pretty awesome level of customization, and I've found their customer service to be very responsive and helpful. I've got a pretty healthy collection of their stuff. My next purchases will probably be an STECS throttle and the WWII GNX rig. At some point I will probably upgrade to a GFIV, but my GF1 is still kicking along just fine. The only downside is that finding grips for it is basically impossible now. But as I have the MCG Pro and the KG12, I have all I really need anyway. I do have twin EVO sticks, with left and right Space Combat Pro grips like the one you have here. One is set up vertically, and the other is in the omni throttle config. I found grip installation to be pretty simple. The only thing that you can really goof up is if you go gorilla on it and don't put the wire in correctly or strip out the plastic as you mentioned. About the only real complaint I can come up with is having to remove the base to tweak the damping. On the other hand, it's not something I'm likely to putz with once I have it where I want it.
As for that mystery plate you mentioned, it's for locking out the X-axis if you intend to use the stick as a single axis throttle.
Forgive me if it’s a dumb question. But does the base come with the stick?
I haven't used any of the virpil stuff, or the other high tier. I have owned a Saitek(og long before logi bought them) x45, some pre-usb stuff before that, and a t16000 + twcs. From everything I've seen on the other options, vkb seems to be the best bang:buck ratio. Not cheap, not priced like it should be made of solid gold, but you get what you pay for.
Can't speak for the throttle but I do love my VKB Gladiator Evo left sidestick. Combining it with the Honeycomb Bravo on my right, its the perfect setup for really any GA or airliner in MSFS.
Did you manage to adjust the trim? Probably my biggest concern
I’m happy with the throttle. The config wasn’t immediately clear, but I got through.
use the finger lifts fo4r flares and chaf
There's an idea!
I love my VKB STECS throttle, but it is absolutely NOT A10 friendly. Solid throttle for the money though and I love the interchangeable switches.
It definitely feels really good!! I'm looking forward to diving deeper
the only thing that i truly dislike about my stecs throttle is the wheel on the bottom right of the throttle. you cannot swap it out, and its very uncomfortable to touch design wise.
