From the reviews I have read from various sites this product appears to be almost a good idea. It's definitely moving in the right direction but needs a bit more time in the oven so to speak. The QC appears to be somewhat lacking based on some reviews pointing out build quality issues. The adjustability is minimal and can require some DIY tweaking for overall height to desk (a common component) matching. And then there's the challenge of optimal positioning of joystick and throttle on each side platform. A video from NewEgg just shows it being assembled without any real commentary. Another video from Playseat only features a throttle and and yoke configuration without even mentioning a joystick. In this second video the throttle is so low it requires reaching down to operate. I think the company needs to consider a design that allows for a broader range of control location and configurations plus fine adjustment. For now I would rather build my own to be blunt.
My HOTAS is CH Products Pro USB components for what it's worth.

TIL there's an air force seat that looks like a racing car seat.
