Explanation of mil spec switches?
Been diving into researching the hobby recently looking to 3d print some hotas or hosas gear mainly for the purposes of playing Star citizen. Along my travels I discovered the major difference between the tactile feel and travel of most actual military grade switches vs their sim counterparts.
Now on to the main question, are otto the only company that make switches with the correct motion and feel? Are there any cheaper alternatives? Are high quality parts like that even worth considering on a 3d printed basem Are there any diy solutions people have created to recreate a more accurate feel using more readily available parts? The only thing along those lines I have managed to discover is thesimnet's open source trigger.
Cheers in advance for any relevant information I'm new but very interested in the hobby.
