I just want to point out $200 when this was announced is worth about $180 today. If you are going to hold this price line, then there is a rush to get to market before your throttle controller is cheaper than a tank of gas.....

Re: VKB TECS: MODULARITY FULL AHEAD
Are the planned panels going to be more of a generic type that will interface and look good with any era of aircraft, or are they going to be more of a modern style? I'm one of those who doesn't have any interest in jets and so wants to have a controller unit that looks like it was made to be used in a prop plane.
Put another way, the planned WWII throttle is a very good step in that direction, so will there be more options like that?

Re: VKB TECS: MODULARITY FULL AHEAD
I’m interested in the arc/electronic detents version, but I’m hoping detent profiles can be changed on the fly (no pun intended) so we can change the detents and jump in a 109 coming off of a P51 without having to exit the game and having to reflash the firmware.
I’d wager there’s enough interest already. I mean, LukeFF and I are here, who ELSE do you need for gooodness’s sake!?

Re: throttle
It's a mystery to everyone, even their employees. We've been waiting literal years. Sooo..

Keep an eye out for my Obituary, you'll probably see it first.
Been waiting since before FS20 was released on Dec. 3rd, 2019.
Since then they've run in every direction but towards the TECS. I can't blame them for entering the mid range market though, an untapped stream of positive cash flow is great for a company.
But at this point I think I might go with plan b. I've been using an old CH Hotas throttle for almost 2 and a half years at this point, and the pots are getting dirty. /I'd clean it, but it's a single throttle axis anyway. Tired of waiting.
