Re: Gladiator and T-Rudder Pre-Orders Now Shipping!
Yeah, in space Sims, I find Roll on twist very intuitive and feels like a very natural fit. X and Y axis on yaw and pitch. I understand how that would feel alien to atmospheric flight simmers, but it makes a lot of sense in space. This is still the case for me personally when Yaw rate is nerfed like...

Re: Gladiator and T-Rudder Pre-Orders Now Shipping!
It's saying the 30th, so just over 2 weeks. However stuff from Amazon has arrived within 5 days sometimes, as long as it passes through customs quickly. Will just have to wait and see. Been trying to work out a solution for roll axis now that I'm going with the Pro. Might try my T16k in left hand an...

Re: Gladiator and T-Rudder Pre-Orders Now Shipping!
The peripheral gods are smiling on me (well VKB/Jason anyway), just got notification that my Pro is shipping from Amazon.

Re: Gladiator and T-Rudder Pre-Orders Now Shipping!
Bastard, haha :) Congrats though, I'm sure you'll be enjoying it for a long time. I've always been a massive fan of the CH sticks and their gimbal, as I used an original CH Flightstick with Wing Commander 1 and various other games a long time ago. Also preferred the light, precise throw compared to ...

Re: VKB Throttle
I agree Sokol, but in this regard unfortunately everybody will be pushing their agenda based on their own preference, and usually this comes down to their preferred flight sim or aircraft. This is more noticeable for those that prefer WW2 flight sims, like IL2. In those cases, the control systems of...

Re: VKB Throttle
I definitely prefer thumb for control. I'm currently using a Razer Orbweaver for left hand duties, and use the thumb d-pad for lateral thrusters, and it gets a lot of work. However, most of my other activation keys are under the fingers, whereas on a throttle, most of the functions are on hats in th...

Re: VKB Throttle
I thought that too (using thumb instead of finger for ministick), however thinking about it more, using your index finger like the new TM throttle would free the thumb up for accessing all your hats. Will be good to see some reviews when they're released to see how well index finger heave/sway works...

Re: Gladiator and T-Rudder Pre-Orders Now Shipping!
Cheers for the heads up Wowaegon. Just checked, and ship date is still the 28th, however, as you said, it's showing stock availability on the 15th. However, based on Jason's comments, Amazon can be a bit loopy with those notifications, so I've hedged my bets this time and put myself in the queue for...

Re: Gladiator and T-Rudder Pre-Orders Now Shipping!
Well, that's a good problem to have I suppose. I'm wondering if I should just cancel my order through Amazon, and try and deal direct through VKB if I've now missed the boat completely. I think Ilya said that they have another batch due in China/Russia in couple of weeks, and would make sense to hav...

Re: Gladiator and T-Rudder Pre-Orders Now Shipping!
No problem, thanks Jason. I think I'll stick with the Pro at this stage. Hopefully I got in in time.
