Please help me choose a new throttle.
Hi everyone!
A bit of context: I recently purchased a hotas combo of the famous W brand. The joystick is okay, but the throttle is a stiction nightmare. It's almost feel like a scam to be honest. If the throttle stays still for 4-5 seconds the next move requires a ridiculous amount of force.
As a personal flaw I really hate stiction. A lot. It ruin my immersion completely.
So my question for you guys is: exists a throttle base without stiction?
These past days I was thinking about Virpil and VKB, but looking online I see that the STECS also have stiction and the Virpil caps and slew durability are not the best thing in the world. So... I kinda lost and I don't know what to do.
