Hikig 2 Set The Desk Mount for The Flight Sim Game Joystick, Throttle and Hotas Systems Compatible with Logitech X56, X52, X52 Pro, Thrustmaster T-Flight Hotas,Thrustmaster T.16000M, Thrustmaster TCA

Overall:Very pleased with the HOTAS mount, it took a bit to assemble but once together it feels sturdy, firm, and well secured to my desk while being easy to unclamp and store. The variety of configurations and adjustable position all work great, though it does require you to loosen screws to alter the height/depth this also means that once set it stays put and there's no fiddly knobs or other hardware taking up extra space.Pros:-Very customizable, fits a number of different HOTAS styles and has two different mounting platforms.-Assembly allows for creativity and modification if need be for a wide array of configurations, even upside down to increase height relative to desk instead of the standard lower than desk option. Though for some unorthodox configurations you might need to modify or bandsaw off some of the excess central/vertical column to prevent monitor view block.-Very stable once assembled and tightened up.-Very nice clamping fixture.Cons:-Exact number of assembly bolts/nuts.-Requires assembly(not really a con but some reviewers didn't seem to realize this was the case so mentioning it as both a pro and a con.)-A few washers would be a great addition to help HOTAS like the Saitek X52 which use the slender mounting bolts to better secure to the bar type bracket. The slide nuts would be a perfect fit for this had there been 4 extra to use, but the lack of extra led to me borrowing a few larger nuts from the plate style bracket mounting hardware to use in place of a washer.

I recently purchased the Hikig 2 Set Desk Mount for my flight sim game setup, and I couldn't be happier with the results. This mounting system is a game-changer for anyone looking to enhance their flight simulation experience. Firstly, the build quality is outstanding. The mounts are sturdy and well-made, providing a reliable and secure platform for my Logitech X56 HOTAS, and are easily detachable by just the simple pulling a lever. I was impressed by the durability of the materials used, ensuring that my expensive flight control peripherals are held in place safely. The set-up was relatively easy, and only took me around ~30 minutes to fully set up both mounts. It's versatile enough to accommodate various setups, and you can easily change configuration if you ever change your HOTAS set-up. What sets the Hikig Desk Mount apart is its stability during intense flight maneuvers. I no longer experience the frustration of my joystick or throttle slipping or wobbling during crucial moments in the game with them just sitting on my desk. The mounts stay firmly in place, providing a realistic and immersive flying experience.

This is a great product, if you're paying the discounted price around $80. While I do see how the original price is justified through the good materials used in this mount, they're a bit overly bulky in that they overcompensate in order to accommodate all the different types of HOTAS setups. I definitely appreciate the fact that I can upgrade my HOTAS to something better/new and not have to worry about getting new mounts, but that leads to a product that comes with a ton of extra hardware and almost too much adjustability. The vertical bar is long enough that you will definitely notice the lost knee/leg room, and this is amplified by the fact that it's built long enough to be mounted on a standing desk and be used in a sitting position. That could be a good thing though, if you're looking for a mounting solution that can accommodate a weird/custom desk.To further speak to the hardware itself; everything is made out of metal, aside from good rubber and silicone for the faces that mate with the desk. it feels like a very solid product, and once all the nuts are tightened down it feels absolutely rock-solid. These mounts can even be affixed to your desk at an angle and won't introduce any play or instability, if it's tightened down properly. However, I do think that they don't pay the closest attention to quality control, as I had two parts that were defective upon arrival. One of the four L-Brackets had a hole that wasn't punched through and had a slug affixed to the side, which had been coated with the rest of the piece making it difficult to repair on my own. I did end up assembling the mount with the bad bracket, and it still feels very solid. The second part was one of the flat bars, which have sunken screws via a bevel in a perpendicular hole. The bevel on one of the holes, on one of the four flat hotas mounting bars was not beveled and thus couldn't be affixed with two screws, just one. Regardless of the missing bevel, it didn't effect the rigidity of the mount, even when both bad parts were installed in the same mount. While the lacking quality control was frustrating, I was pleasantly surprised to find I wouldn't need to have it replaced since it works perfectly fine as is with the bad parts.Overall, this is a great way to have a modular mounting setup that allows for future upgrades, and is built sturdy enough to take some punishment. I can already tell it's a night and day difference having your hotas fixed to a sturdy surface, rather than leaving them sitting on your desk, unattached. However, if you order this product, make sure to inspect all of your parts, prior to assembling anything, as everything is packed very efficiently in the box and returns may be difficult to repack. One more note to make: I bought this product to use on an L-shaped desk, and this may have been a blunder on my part. The mounts take up too much room for my case and make it impossible to fully pull my chair in for equal reach to my keyboard and hotas. This can lead to having to lean forward to use the keyboard whenever I need to switch back and forth on the fly. This definitely won't be an issue if you have a wider desk, and will most likely still be fine for other L-Shaped desks if it has a larger footprint. Make sure to take some measurements and ensure it'll fit your setup, and account for any angle you may want to put them at when using the mounts!

Kind of a pain to assemble but very solid. Take your time and be patient. Came with more hardware than I needed it I can always use it somewhere else.

Effective and affordable. Caution to STECS Standard users: you will need longer rails unless you raise height or source an adapter bracket. The VKB Gladiator EVO Sticks mounted smoothly and easily with the provided screws and nuts.

Can be challenging to put together. My product didn’t come with enough hardware to make 2 of the “type second mount” so I had to improvise a bit. It works and is pretty sturdy but I might go to the hardware store to get more parts and make it stronger. It came with a bunch of useless screws and wing nuts that aren’t even on the directions not sure why I received them, but like I said I made it work so it’s fine.

This product and ones like it are honestly a pain for anyone that want a temporary setup. the constant moving around will loosen everything up on them eventually, and with all the screws and pieces they are just a complete pain to level and align. I don't know a better solution for a moveable setup.But this ain't it - Unless you're looking to setup a permanent flight sim station.
