Thank you, I asked by mail for a base with twist too. :)

The Base hasn't a Twist. It's in the Grip :shock:

Just received mine. I did not see a non-red replacement trigger form (or cover). I won't rule out having missed it so far though.

It's a nice red, kind of dark, not "candy apple" or cartoon like at all. Very slightly matte to the feel.

Can someone tell me if this is a 4 way switch? Or is it just a two-way (up and down only)?

Thanks!

5-way. 4-way with a center press. Same as regular MCG Pro.

I changed out my two gray and one red button caps, to the three black that were included with the grip as extras.
The Ultimate is now my stealth grip. I call her "Black Beauty".

You're jumping straight for the brass ring. ;-)

As far as I am aware, unless you count things like the MCG (Pro or Ultimate) flip up trigger, which also has a 'press', or the Kosmosima "rapid-fire trigger" (up and down press), none of VKB's grips have just a 2-way control All hats are 5 way (4 + center) minimum. Some (top middle on the MCG's, top-right on the Kosmosima Premium) are either interpreted as 8-way hats or as analog axes. (The middle 'push' in hat mode is replaced by the switch between modes, with a long press. In Analog use, by default they're relative axes and a quick tap of the center is your 'zero reset'.)

The MCG grip (not the Pro) has two 2-way hats.

Does the MCG Pro users by change get those new 4-way hats? Or is there a 3D printer files for those hats so they could be modified larger than they are now?

Any update on when we'll be able to order a full Gunfighter with this grip? Previously, you said "after CNY", and it's now after CNY, with no ordering option...

Order placed! Excitement doesnt describe how ready I am for this! its my first "enthusiast" hardware. Coming from a Logitech X-56 this will be an amazing upgrade. Sticking with no extensions though... I prefer sidestick flying.

I guess that answer is "this morning"... ordered, really looking forward to trying it out.

Any word on if a left hand grip is in the works? I would like to match the one I have for space sims, and the space combat grip just does feel as nice as the ultimate.
