Serious Throttle

Got the STECS Max and I've been really impressed with it. The hardware is really well built and solid, and the swappable detents is such a great feature making it easy to swap when you jump into another plane. The other awesome feature is the software that it comes with (and the videos to show you how to get started). It turns the STECS into whatever you want, making this system a truly customizable throttle with more buttons and axis than you would ever need. I mounted it with the appropriate VKB mount, and the combination is an absolute winner and worth every $.

Amazing

This HOTAS is a dream to use. So many options with the button swap system, software and very smooth throttle advancement. with a lot of buttons to map it has added to the immersion and ease of flying...I literally don't need to touch the keyboard for any flying now. I love this thing and would 100% recommend. It is a huge upgrade from my TM Warthog.
