- | Yes, it is! Functionality wise, it may very well be the most advanced controls system around. Every part is designed to last, with repairability in mind, and also with love to our hobby. It feels fantastic in VR and has some modules that are specifically designed to be used while wearing a VR headset. Precision wise, it's really good - featuring some serious mechanics with metallic axes, with as low as only 0,2mm clearance between an axis and its bearings, and SS495A1 Hall Effect sensors. | + | Yes, it is!
