Well there we go ;
First thing first
1. It came out from the box without any problems , every single button axis was perfectly functional
Now my impression on x56 Rhino (keep in mind this is the cheapest hotas in the high end of the hotas classes)
1. the stik, Its amazingly accurate compared to my old thrustmasther (40& bucks hotas). all the problems I was having centering my aim and crossair jumping like crazy in the middle are gone (even when the scaling in settings is turned off)
2. the size and button placement both on stick and joystick very natural
3. sheer number of buttons , (2 extra thumb sticks) rotaries and had switches is really useful
On the down side,
1.even on the loosest setting the throttle is kinda hard to move, its not something would make it terrible but takes a while to get used to it.
2. the base of the throttle and stick base are lighter then I expected, so if you like jerky fast moves you will need definitely somehow fix it on the table (it has holes to fix it on a surface but it requires drilling and stuff)
about the durability, I think time will show....
