ExGreyFox Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Hello pilots, In a nutshell, I want to get my Warthog throttle, and my yet to purchase MCG Gunfighter Pro stick both on desk mounts. I am in the process of acquiring the VKB Gunfighter pro MCG (long stick version) along with MFG Crosswind Rudder Pedals. I already own the HOTAS Warthog. I need a desk mount for the MCG stick and preferably one for the Warthog Throttle as-well. So far I have found a what seems to be a low cost solution for the stick. Its the Virpil desk mount found here: https://virpil.com/en/shop/accessories/vpc-desk-mount-vpc Seems like all I would need to do is grab 2 of the Virpil desk mounts along with the TMW Mounting Throttle plate and should be set?? So far I have not been able to come across anything comparable to this for relatively the same price. Will this work? Thoughts?

Thermal Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Two things: 1) You will need the TMW Mounting Base for the Gunfighter, and will need to drill holes in it to suit the GF. GF and TMW holes are different. GF is smaller, so thats good. 2) You need to be careful that the extended MCG does not have so much throw that it hits the top of the mount.

FoxDelta Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 hi , suggest two combine 2 virpil mounts (one inverted)for the GF pro, because of the extension, did that since i use them my projects: https://www.sim-addons.com/ https://www.shapeways.com/shops/sim-addons-1 AV8B nozzle lever https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=233670 F18C fingerlifts https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=234747 F18C radar elevation https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=248080 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't follow. I figured the setup will match this guy's: It looks to me that there is plenty of clearance between the top of the mount and the stick. Another good example of what I'm trying to replicate: Edited August 10, 2018 by ExGreyFox Intel i7-8700k Coffee Lake@stock G.Skill TridentZ RGB 32GB (2x16) 3200MHz ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1080 Ti Maximus X FORMULA Z370 BIOS 1401 NZXT Kraken x62 SAMSUNG 970 EVO M.2 2280 500GB (OS) SAMSUNG 970 EVO M.2 2280 1TB (Games) Corsair AX1200i 1200 Watt Cooler Master HAF X HOTAS Warthog | VKB MCG Pro GunFighter Mk.
