Lucky - CM4 throttle shipping and quality

So my CM4 throttle today and wanted to share a few quick thoughts.

The packaging was a letdown. It showed up in what looked like a shoebox, and the inside was a loose jumble of cardboard inserts with the parts bagged up and rattling around.(note I didn’t touch anything inside just open the flap) Everything seems fine so far and works as far as I can tell, but it was a surprise, especially compared to what I've received from Virpil in the past, and from VKB and others too.

One thing I did notice is the connector for the new xs9-4 pin. It doesn't feel as solid as the ones on previous gear and it's quite wobbly, so I'm a little concerned about long-term durability. Unfortunate.
For context, I'm coming from the original mongoose throttle, which has been awesome. The CM4 is fine, but I'm a bit disappointed with the packaging and connector and I guess the quality(?). I do like the shape and what they've delivered overall, though.
Has anyone else's arrived like this?

Which me luck tonight as I start the trying to land.

Self QA for First time setup

Hey everyone my bsb2e arrives next week. Was hoping people could give me a few tips on setup and how to do a self QA on the unit.
I was planning to install most of the drivers / base stations and such ahead of time. So hopefully can just jump in.
Love the help and thanks for being a great community.

Steam Link / Remote Play

Hey, so I was going to pair my steam frame with a steam machine this summer. (Or whenever it arrives). However I found out this morning (I know I know I’m late) that I can pair my Apple TV in my living room to my pc for 4K play.

Is this the same tech that we think the steam frame is going to have to do flat screen games inside the steam frame? I wonder if it’s going to get an upgrade now as well.

Have we heard anything about the new accessories that were supposed to to be coming out in June? I ever in the last blog post about them getting a few things ready. Was that just the halo mount?
