Those videos make it evident that the gimbal has very little friction, which is nice.
Sorry for somewhat hijacking your thread like that but your grip i assume is from a TM HOTAS Warthog, however the connection to the base looks different. Is that something you made yourself, did it come with the extension or with the base? The reason i’m asking is that i’m interested in how much of a hassle it is to make a stock warthog grip compatible with a VKB base.
