Have tried a few joysticks and controllers over the years but the precision and
handling of the Gladiator Space Combat Grip coupled with the sensible button placement left the others in its wake. Package arrived quickly and contained all those little extras to truly make it customizable as my own.
Great product VKB
Fantastic mount. Very sturdy and high quality.
Excellent joystick for entry level users
I just wish I got the premium!!!
I am pairing this throttle with a VKB Gladiator joystick. i have not owned any other throttles for comparison, but the smoothness of the axes cannot be overstated. And it's not just the look and feel of the unit, it's the almost infinite versatility in which every single button, switch and axis can be modified via software to have different or multiple functions. Eg - In Elite, when i move my throttle to the zero mark, it also opens my cargo hatch to slow me down even faster, and blinks a blue LED to advise me, all from a single movement. I look forward to further in-depth customization with the help of VKB's Discord, which has been extremely helpful thus far. My only partial issue is that the X & Y axes move your wrist in unusual ways, so you may need to experiment with placement to avoid strain.
The quality feels really good. There are lots of interchangeable parts included as well that can make it feel better to your preference. It has a nice feel and weight to it.
Arrived in a reasonable amount of time, packaged very well and most importantly is a fantastic throttle.
Exactly what it looks like. It is a solid and sturdy product, and really adds to the immersion using the Gunfighter IV base. Very happy with my purchase, would 100% buy again.
Decided to pull the trigger and enter into the market for some higher end peripherals. After spending some time flying with it, I find the Gunfighter IV base to be second to none. It is smooth, responsive, durable, and compact. Everything you'd need for a joystick base.
The F-14 grip is also amazing to use. The plastic feels high quality and the rubber inserts are a really nice touch. Being a replica of the original, the grip is very ergonomic to hold and use. Only thing I'd have changed if anything would be a firmer first stage trigger.
Delivery to New Zealand was prompt and the product was well packaged and protected. 100% am planning on buying more VKB products, would recommend them to anyone.
The VKB Gunfighter Mk. IV is a high-quality joystick designed for flight simulation enthusiasts. It features precise control, robust build quality, and a range of customisation options, making it in my opinion a top choice for serious sim pilots. I found it to have a very ergonomic design that ensured comfort during extended sessions, and its compatibility with various flight sims adds to its versatility.

I bought the right hand straight version (stick) a few years ago, but adding this Omni throttle version for the left hand has improved the gaming/flying experience greatly. Build quality is excellent as I've come to expect from VKB products. Works well after some minor assembly (all tools required are included) and is customable with included springs for different levels of resistance. Software allows for more fine tuning - I've barely scratched the surface of what it's capable of. Highly recommended throttle for your flight/space sims.

The perfect hotas-tech if you’re testing the Flight Sim ecosystem - tons of how-to-guides, YT tutorials and PDF button configs to get started. Build quality is exquisite with spring gimbals rather than ball-n-cup to last. If you love to Sim, the premium Gladiator is ideal to build around when expanding the setup - money very well spent.

Nice little set up. Easy to calibrate to get started. Throttle is so smooth in comparison to my old Thrustmaster which even had the mod done. More than enough buttons etc for my need.

I use MK4 for main set up but it is a bit hard to hook on computer everytime. So I bought EVO for sub stick and... it is just awesome. Easy and simple use but she has every benefits of VKB. Great damper, nice grip and buttons. I love it.

Solid construction, delivered on time, and enhances my gameplay. What else could i ask for? I happily recommend this product.
They seem very strong and well engineered. The input was linear when my app reported on its input. No calibration needed. MacOs. Nice sized indent for the neutral position.

You need this if you convert any of the non MAX STECS Throttles to a MAX either on the desk or mounted. It has the longer USB-C connector needed to get through the case to the USB-C port of the STEM or STECS throttles.
Another great product. Purchased so i can have different setups for different ships and planes.
