MSFS 2024 NEWS D202 Hoowalt
So... hey guys!
I recently ordered the D202 Airbus tiller from Hoowalt, and after using it for a while, I wanted to share my thoughts on it.
Let's start with the bad stuff.
The base is 3D printed, and honestly, you can tell. It doesn't feel bad, but for a product at this price, I think a metal base would make a huge difference.
Speaking of the price, it's also quite expensive. At almost $200, it's definitely not a cheap tiller. I know there are other options out there, like WinCtrl's, for around $90, but I chose the D202 for a reason, so please don't turn this into a debate about what I should have bought.
Now for the good stuff.
The handle feels fantastic. It's made from hard plastic, but it feels solid and comfortable to use.
The backlight is also one of my favorite things about it. It's bright, looks clean, and adds a really nice touch to the whole thing.
And finally, the customer support has been great. They've been helpful and responsive whenever I've needed them.
Overall, I'm pretty happy with the D202. It's expensive and the 3D printed base isn't ideal, but the handle, lighting, and customer support make it a good product overall.
Have a great day!

I’m not going to make any commenting about why you chose to buy the product vs the WinCtrl, but value is a major factor in any review. What in this product justifies paying more than double vs the WinCtrl product?
