Really enjoying my SEM Module - adds an extra layer of interest to my SIM rig, great build quality and features. The VKB support team were incredible at troubleshooting when I had an issue and took the time to help me get set up.
Just what I wanted, very accurate compared with other pedals, real move movement that you require in flying helicopters. Very easy to make slight movements, no jerking movement. Also these pedals take up less space compared other more expensive type of pedals. I highly recommend these pedals.
This is a perfect upgrade from an NXT gimble to an EVO gimble that is stronger, with ball bearings and 3x adjustment clutches. The process to exchange the parts is quick and easy, with YouTube guides to help.
I finally made the upgrade to VKB, and I'm glad that I did. This EVO Omni Throttle is a joy to use, and the clutches make it perfect for a no-spring flight style throttle. Although, I do think it needs some kind of external pin that when engaged, will create an indent mid-throttle travel so the user can keep the non-spring action whilst having a space style throttle.
Really enjoying it! Huge step up from my T16000 joystick. All the buttons are just so nicely accessible. I just wish you guys would release a 'slide style' throttle - it would match the in-game throttles in Elite Dangerous, but more importantly I find it a lot nicer ergonomically to slide rather than have your hand up in the air or start using undermounts. So - Joystick amazing! But now I have a hankering for a matching throttle!
I am usually not a fan of non-metal flight sticks, but there was no real metal alternative for the F-14, so I decided to give this one a try. To my surprise, it does not feel cheap at all. It feels solid and comfortable in the hand, and I really like the buttons, switches and overall design.
My only complaint is the second stage of the trigger. This is completely down to personal preference, but I prefer triggers that feel tactile and clicky, while this one is very soft and feels almost the opposite. Apart from that, I am very happy to have it in my collection and have really enjoyed using it.
There was also a small delay with the order, but the VKB Australia team went above and beyond by arranging international delivery at no extra cost so I could receive it as quickly as possible. Excellent customer service and overall a very good purchase.
I am absolutely blown away by the STECS Throttle System Mk.II - Max. It is an incredible piece of hardware that has completely transformed my flight simulation experience.
I paired this throttle with my VKB Gladiator NXT, and the combo is unbeatable. They look, feel, and perform brilliantly together. The level of control and precision I have now is next-level.
Out of the box, the setup was surprisingly easy. VKB has done a fantastic job making the physical configuration and software integration straightforward, so I was up and flying in no time.
The build quality is top-tier, the customisation options are endless, and the physical response of the throttle is pure luxury. I cannot recommend this system highly enough to anyone looking to upgrade their setup.
This throttle has completely sold me on the VKB ecosystem. I will definitely be building my entire cockpit using VKB modules!
I had been using an X52 for a long time, finally took the plunge and ordered the Space Edition STECs…. OMG !
An amazing difference, so smooth, the detent personalisation, the set up was simple.
I was able to configure buttons very similar to a layout I have used on the X52. The multi direction control on the top is perfect for thruster control in Elite Dangerous.
Highly recommended….
Extremely well made with precision. Great price
Awesome products works like a dream Stecs mk2 has so many buttons it’s very good
Ordered Tuesday night from Brisbane, Aus. On my doorstep Friday lunch. Flying il2 GB Friday night. Great packaging, perfect product, love VKB gear.
Good addition to my Stec Mini. I have mounted the Stem on another location on my sim rig using a thin 2mm plate bracket. Existing screws on the back plate are small so anything thicker than 2mm you will need a custom mounting bracket. I had to connect via the GNX Module-to-Module Interface Cable (Type-C to JST2.0-4. The Type-C side was connected to the Stec. Overall great quality, and heaps of extra buttons that come very handy for DCS.
Exactly what it says on the tin.
Excellent build quality, easy assembly, went first go in the PC and flight sims (DCS World, Elite Dangerous) picked it up and configured defaults straight away.
Love the finesse and smoothness of the stick and damping is excellent.
Natural switch and hat placements.
Highly Recommended, without hesitation especially at this price point.
This joystick/throttle is fantastic. The build quality is impressive and it is easy to assemble and calibrate. The software is fairly complex but it opens up a lot more customisation of response curves and button assignments etc.
