Ok so this may sound like completely silly question; but I ordered a couple VKB gladiators for Elite/SC/DCS (I’ve been flying with m&k)

Every single setup I’ve seen has the Hotas/hosas mounted on the front lip of the desk and hanging down. Why is this?

I made my desk 35” deep so my lanky arms could rest on them to keep pressure off my shoulders and wrists. I was thinking of just putting the sticks on top of my desk…is this a ok thing or explain to me why people like to put them so low and have to back their chair up really far? Most games I’ll be using m&k for movement + hotas for flight for so I’d like them to be close together.

Anyways just never had a hotas and before I waste money on mounts- was wondering ergonomically if this made sense to simply place them on my desk other left and right of my KB+M?

Thanks!

Mostly duo'ing with my best friend. Mining and salvaging is something we haven't tried so we are adding in a Mole & Moth soon with in-game credits.

I love the Tib, but it's just so underwhelming. Trying not to base my decision off balance, but the Percy seems to get picked every time if were needing a gunship.

Would like to recreate this if possible

I think the Paladin looks absolutely stunning, and I’m leaning more toward that just for the vibe. but I know the Asgard has more scu and more general purpose. That’s about all I know. I haven’t flown these 2 ships before, I was wondering how they felt, what you would pick?

I’d mainly be using for bounty hunting missions. Solo through the week + occasionally 1 friend on the weekends. Thanks for your input!

It looks quite fun, I haven’t seen anything like it since I mostly play casters. Is this on warrior, huntress, something else? Thanks in advance :)

EDIT: My question is answered. Thank you all so much for the quick responses!
