HR-1 Joystick Base plus optional HR-3 Dampers
(shown with optional HR-2 freestanding feet)
The HR-3 Dampers give a smoother feel, and if you let go of the joystick it will to return to the centre without springing back and forth (see below)
HR-2 Freestanding Feet
(You supply the 5 - 10kg weight!)
The HR-2 Freestanding Feet bolt to the main base unit with a single bolt. This is ideal if you want to use the unit freestanding on the floor without bolting to an existing set up.
The HR-2 accepts a standard dumbbell weight of between 5 and 10kg. Max diameter 30cm. Max thickness 4cm. Centre hole 1 inch / 25mm
HR-3 Dampers
The HR-3 Dampers allow the joystick to return to the centre smoothly if you let go of the stick. Without these the joystick will work fine; it will just spring back and forth a few times before coming to rest in the centre
There are not many instances when you would want to let go of the stick (possible stall recovery procedure?) and the stick works without them, that's why we made them optional!
