Does Throttle Have Center Detent?

Postby Humor » Thu Sep 08, 2022 1:24

I see this throttle, but I don't know if it is actually available yet:

Can someone tell me if this is available, and also if this has a center detent? I'm interested in this for Star Citizen which is best with center of throttle being idle.

The TECS is still under works at this time.

Is there any way to find out if a center detent is intended for this?

You could follow the link and read the update. But if you don't want to do that, it says (among other things),
"The proper breakthrough comes right below....
ELECTRONIC detents. A landslide change of the rules of the game. We are turning the old page over.
Now: programmable detents. YOU will set detents position as well as their type (warning tactile click or hard limit, one- or two-way detent).
Electronic detents are now being patented. For this reason we cannot show the final design of the base here (but it exists already). Actual base will have a lot more controls than shown in the picture of the devkit, and we will sure flash it shortly before the device goes onto the shops' shelves.There is also one more thing up our sleeve that we are not going to elaborate here - but rest assured it will considerably expand the functionality and ergonomics of the base."

Of course this update is 18 months old, but that's the latest we've heard.
