Apt Hall Effect Mechanical Keyboard

It gives you the nice, clean feeling of a mechanical keyboard, but it's silent!!

Great entry level mechanical keyboard

I bought this controller to use with the X-Plane 11 flight simulator. My original control yoke began to annoy me, stiff around center and frustrating when trying to input small precise movements. Flight instructors at PilotWorkshops.com recommended this stick, even for pilots who fly aircraft with a yoke rather than a stick. It has a pretty good feel, with positive centering but a modest breakout force and smooth motion. The biggest selling points are the Hall Effect magnetic sensor on the main X-Y axes, and the high resolution position outputs. This allows very fine correction inputs, and avoids twitching that often occurs with potentiometer sensors. The price point is another: to get a control yoke with Hall Effect sensors, the price of admission begins at around $800. The stick-twist rudder control works OK, although a little twist goes a long way. I like the reversible hand and thumb rests on the stick, and the array of user-assignable buttons on the stick and base (Left-Right switch under base to swap buttons on base). The throttle slider works well, with a movement of about 3/4 inch. Also, the base has two threaded holes for 6mm bolts/screws if you want to fasten it down.

Great mechanical keyboard. Love the preset lighting options.

Great mechanical keyboard for programming. Works great with Linux as well.

The ROG Claymore II is the best mechanical keyboard I've ever used. The responsiveness is incredible!

I've been wanting to move towards a mechanical keyboard feel. Glad that MX is offering an option now. So far, I've really enjoyed the typing experience, though it is taking some getting used to since I've been on scissor switches for quite a while. I don't love how they switched to a new dongle system with this one so I can't use the MX master 3 mouse with the same dongle anymore - I know they did that to force another upgrade. Other complaint is that their software seems to have regressed in the new mechanical keyboards. example - the calculator quick key still works but it doesn't bring it to the front anymore. Why would that be different from their previous keyboards? weird. Overall, I'm enjoying the keyboard, though.
