Gunfighter Omni Throttle

Postby Stonehenge » Sat Feb 05, 2022 11:15

The NXT Omni Throttle is already listed. On the US side, the surcharge is only $10! On the one hand the question of whether a similar surcharge is foreseeable for Europe and on the other hand an even more important question for me: Will there also be a Gunfighter Omni Throttle? And if so.....also with the option of SCG "Standard" Grip? Because this option is not offered on the US side

Gunfighter Omni Throttle Adapter (OTA) already shows on the US site, it's a little hidden, browse into the Gunfighter first and then Accessories.
https://vkbcontrollers.com/?product=omn ... gunfighter
Left and right shown. No reason it wouldn't work for a Kosmosima "Standard" vs. Premium.
The only thing they don't seem to recommend at this time is the MCG ('PRO' is now 'standard' as there's only the single model offered now with the full thumb hat, instead of the older 'base' version, which is I think reserved for the Thrustmaster compatible variant [1]) or MCG-Ultimate. I'm guessing they decided those two sticks would be too out of balance or unlikely to be used in a right hand OTA arrangement.

If you're specifically asking about a completely pre-integrated sale of a grip+OTA+base that's something I would have zero insight in, I'm just mining what's already visible...

FOOTNOTE EDIT: [1] I can't see the MCG-Thrustmaster on their site anymore actually.

But that's exactly how it is. I would like a package consisting of Gunfighter Base, OTA and SCG Left (Non-Premium) I currently have the base, the grip and the UCM individually in my shopping cart. I have already discovered the OTA myself, but unfortunately it is not yet available. The NXT is available as a complete package and I wish this for the Gunfighter series

The OTAs are still fresh, give it a bit of time to have the price and all options set up. The other products on your list are in local EU warehouse, but certainly OTA will ship from China HQ, which is still closed until the 8th.

Waiting is not a problem. I just wanted to know the general situation and, of course, whether my wish is generally being fulfilled :wink:

What would be awesome with this is if the "X" axis of the joystick could be locked so the omni throttle works as a throttle on y axis only. Does anyone know if this is an option, really aught to be a fixed cam with it to install on x axis and restrict movement to "Y" axis ?

You mean locked by software or physical locked? First works, second not on the NXT base, at least not officially.

Now you got me wondering about something....going to email someone directly with the idea before I expose it (and probably my ignorance) here...
