Just the right mix of quality, customisation and affordability.

I have been waiting to get a new throttle and wanted to wait for the STECS to see if it was any good. I’m so glad I did. This thing is so good it’s insane. Every button and switch is right where it needs to be. Smooth, programmable and adaptable to any aircraft you fly. I fly DCS and it’s so easy to set up for every aircraft I fly. So glad I waited.

This is my second set of these pedal. The first I have had for years (mk IV).
The new ones are for at my work location. I love the new broader pedals. Such an amazing feel to them. I fly DCS WW2 mostly and it gives me a level of control I haven’t had in any other pedals. Well done VKB!

Great accessory for my UCM strongholds. Love them.

Quality of product and customer service that VKB have nailed, beware competitors time to pick your game up. After my existing entry level Throttle decided to break 2 months after its warranty period finished and the manufacturer would even look at assisting with a replacement or replacement parts I went on the hunt for a new toy. Thank you VKB for providing that new "Toy" at a great price (for being in Australia) that shows quality parts and engineering. Looking forward to completing my complete pit in VKB.

Solid construction, smooth and responsive movement, grip to the floor, easy install, plenty of guides for adjustments.
Coming from cheap "pro flight rudder pedals" to these was like night and day, so much improvement on movement.

When I got the early bird release email about this unit I was very surprised and excited. VKB has done a top job with this. Maybe there is a cyclic control adaption or controller in the near future?? That would just seal the deal with my DCS game. Good job VKB. Keep up the good work. My VKB products are great. From the desk mounts to the peripherals.

As usual, an excellent unit from the VKB team with all the functionality of it's direct competitors and much, much more. Especially the game changing, totally configurable, hot swappable detent system. Not to mention the physically customisable buttons. Amazing!
In the future I'd like to see a righthand or neutral versions to expand the versatility beyond the warbird trope. Or just add this detent system to a new improved version of the already versatile THQ units....

Great product love the feel.
Fast post VKB are always great to deal with.

Needed a replacement for my logitech plastic things that were 5 years old - these VKB rudder pedals are devine. Super precise and smooth. Needed more precision for the AH64 in DCS and Im glad I went with these.

Excellent build quality and thought out design, worth the wait.

Very impressed with the all metal grip and long press firm resistance buttons.

The Gunfighter IV base clutch dampers give a silky smooth weighty feel across both axis with or without an extension.

A worthy upgrade.

Absolutely sensational . Fantastic quality and flexibility with loads of customisation capability. An absolute plethora of accessories and spare nuts and bolts etc provided. Loved them so much I got four. ( Two for me and two for my son )

lovely quality and very practical, for DCS and Sturmovik

In short this throttle unit is excellent. The only downside is its sheer size, have struggled to find a spot on my desk for this. But boy is it worth it. Once you get your head around programming some of the virtual buttons it seems like there is almost nothing this can't do. I have yet to set up the detents in my games but i have changed them in and out on the stick itself and it is an absolute dream, it is so easy to do. The throttle action is also so smooth, I would not use anything else from here on else unless i absolutely had to. Same as every other VKB product i own
