You're gonna be very happy with this rig. I've had the Gunfighter/MCG-Pro for a few years now. Excellent stick that's built like a tank and very precise. The hall/mars sensors on these are way better than the pots we used to deal with. I got tired of waiting for the VKB throttle to come out and went with a Virpil CM3. Looks like the STECS throttle is really nice but don't see myself switching back to it. The Virpil throttle is really nice too. I got around the problem of multiple complicated softwares by consolidating everything with joystick gremlin. That's about the only thing with these. The software is crazy complicated but they do stuff with the buttons you never thought of!

They're MFG Crosswinds. I have them too. IMO best bang for the buck of the better pedals. All composite with hall/mars sensors. The peds on his are 109 style but they have others like for a P-51. Great service too.

I'm using CH pedals at the moment, had them for about 8 years now. I have had to replace the potentiometers once, need to do it again they are getting real jumpy.

Thank you all.
With the Hall effect sensor, there is no blip or spike at all. There is no sudden loss of WEP or disengagement of the autopilot.

How much was the "hole" setup
The set I purchased is not sold now, but if I were to buy it now, it would be these price.
VKB Gunfighter Mk. IV and MCG Pro: €475,00 (https://flightsimcontrols.com/product/gunfighter-iv-modern-combat-edition/)
VKB STECS Standard: €359,00 (https://flightsimcontrols.com/product/stecs-throttle-system-mini-standard/)
