Description
Gunfighter Mk.III ‘F-14 Combat Edition’
Adjustable dampers allow the user to adjust the friction of the stick, which results in a heavier throw with less oscillation. The all-metal gimbal supports up to two springs per axis (up to 2x #40 spring strength), which allows for a stiffer overall feel during stick movement, especially when using an extension or a heavy grip.

F-14 Grip Video Guides:
NOTE: The clutch dampers are tightened at the factory to prevent them from loosening during shipping; before you connect your Gunfighter to your PC, you will need to loosen the dampers for both pitch and roll axes to achieve correct return-to-center axes movements after calibration (refer to this video for details).
