The quality is at the highest level, be sure to try it.

My first experience of playing RUS and RUD. Before that, there was an old Defender Cobra R3, which seemed to lack ons for Elite: Dangerous, and in general, its control was lame. Picking up this megadevice, I realized that I would not tear from it for a very long time. I highly recommend purchasing. For that kind of money, they give you not some average joystick, but a quite solid unit, on which you will ruin another thousand and two hours of life. If you look at its compeors from the same Thrustmaster, they are all a) much more expensive, b) much worse in terms of ergonomics. From this I catch "pure concentrated pleasure. " From joysticks for 30+ thousand, I do not get high even from the appearance. If you hesitate whether to take it or not - take it. You will not regret

Pros

1. Mega ergonomic, hands lie like a glove. 2. Very responsive in terms of customization. Almost any on or even an axis can be set to anything. Including pancake slider on the throttle. An amazing thing. The height of the platform is also adjusted under the palm of the RUS, which was pleasantly pleased, because at the maximum size, for example, the thumb did not reach the upper hut. I put it on the third level - perfect. 3. Adjustable backlight and display. Neither one nor the other really carries functional features, but it is done with taste and it is convenient to watch the time on the screen, plus there is a stopwatch. 4. Intuitiveness. The ons (all 23 or more even pieces) are in the most convenient places. After half an hour of flights, each of them was mastered and pressed by the spinal cord, they are so comfortably located. 5. Material. Both devices are made of solid plastic with quite impressive metal inserts and details. I think it will last long enough. 6. Vertical return spring on RUS. One has only to loosen the pressure, the joystick smoothly returns to its original position. There were no false positives from the mechanics in the neutral position. 7. The hardness of the throttle is adjustable, although not very noticeable. There are stoppers in front of the extreme forward and extreme rear positions. Some people don't like it, but I'm , if you want to accelerate - be kind enough to make an effort and feel like a mega-captain. It feels like feedback from servos, but it is achieved elementarily. Which is cool. . I almost forgot. It looks exactly like the photo, so I won't take a picture myself. Comes in an awesome box with good packaging that protects from accidental damage.

Cons

The main disadvantage is probably still fastening to the table. Suction cups do a poor job with this task, constantly unhooking and leaving the throttle to rise. There are, of course, holes for bolts, but not everyone will be ready to drill a table. In general, this is probably the problem of any similar devices, and I don’t even know what will help to solve it. You can slightly smooth out the effect of it by learning how to properly apply force to the handles, then you can avoid bouncing. So it's not all that critical.
