Editorial verdict
feiko Hands-on · 300 hours owned
The best desktop-friendly cam base on the market. The addition of adjustable dry clutches in the 'D' revision makes it exceptionally versatile across helicopters, space, and jets.
Pros
- Dual-cam metal gimbal with interchangeable cams and springs
- Independently adjustable dry clutch dampers for smooth resistance or dead-stick heli flying
- Large deflection angle (44 degrees total throw) gives great precision without an extension
- Heavy metal desktop baseplate included
Cons
- Not designed for long extensions (use MongoosT-50CM3 for cockpit center mounts)
Great for: space_hosasmodern_jetheli
Skip if: You need a long 200mm floor/center extension
