aniron Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 That's a good alien doggo! Who's a good boy? You are! Nice to see some decent competition for the Kosmosima, even though I'm not personally a fan of the RGBpocapolypse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mungo13 Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Exactly my first thought the moment I saw the picture - even before reading the text and looking at that friendly fella. :) I hope that Virpil has some agreement with copyright owners, otherwise ... who knows what happens if they decide to "seek financial justice". I hope that ergonomics are as good as design - these are not supersport cars bought by collectors, people are buying them IMHO for really serious gaming use, thus if it doesn't fit their needs they do not buy it.

Matchstick Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Guessing from the look and LEDs this is intended as an replacement/upgrade to the Constellation grip ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jojo Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Not trying to dampen the enthusiasm but I think most serious sim pilots would probably prefer something that does not look like a light up toy. I have never taken to the RGB stuff (whether it be a joystick, a waterblock, memory or pulsing graphics cards) and always viewed it as a gimmick. I think it’s more targeted toward space sim pilots :smilewink: But whatever, if functions and ergonomic are good and not too expensive, why not ? Mirage fanatic !

Sokol1_br Posted August 22, 2019 Author Share Posted August 22, 2019 Guessing: 2 triggers - in the same alignment 2 HAT (China, Pyramid) on the top 1 Analog mini-stick on the far side of the top 1 push button on the top 1 HAT on middle of left side of grip (or right in left hand version) 1 two button switch on right of trigger 1 scroll wheel bellow HAT's - similar to Constellation Pinky button Brake lever Adjustable palm rest VirPil say that twist (contactless sensor) of this version will be lockable.

Gman109 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 I really like this stick now - I much prefer to have my analogue mini stick on my dominant hand/stick side, as for me it's much more accurate than trying to move it with my left hand/thumb on a throttle. I have the other available Virpil sticks including a couple of the Delta's, but I find the Delta's aren't set up that great for simming, more for space/Star Citizen, and the analogue stick is easy enough to reach, but the center/top hat isn't even with pretty large hands. So, this stick fits the bill for me, more of a sim setup than the Delta, and has the analogue hat in a perfect spot IMO. I'll be buying one at least, plus the F14 stick whenever it comes out too.

mungo13 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 To me it looks like nice and fairly universal grip. If they manage to do the ergonomics part properly, it might be one of the best options on the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_sukebe Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Clearly it's not a replica, but the functionality is looking more than a little useful. Wonder how much it will be.

If they manage to do the ergonomics part properly, it might be one of the best options on the market. That's just what I'm thinking - it won't appeal to simmers who want the most accurate sticks possible but for people looking to support both flight and space sims in a single grip it looks like it could be a great option. (For me at least a CM2 with twist axis, 8-way hat swapped for an analogue stick and a button swapped for a rotary encoder wheel would look to tick a lot of boxes for a lot of different roles) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
