Konix Navigator

Reviews

"Despite its we i rd

design, The Nav i gator fits the shape of the hand almost pefectly and gives a pistol-like grip . With the firebutton posi- tioned conveniently close to the user's trigger finger, rapid firepower is yours for the tak- ing . Fully-functioning microswitches also mean you can hear and feel every click and movement you make . My only real criticism, and i t's a biggie, is the awful shaft . it ' s just too tiny and doesn ' t allow the user to get a good grasp of it during play . Consequently , precise move- ment isn't really on. Moreover. although the shaft is made of metal, the model under test broke down after only three hours of use. Not a ve ry good recommendation. I'm sure you ' ll agree . Cable length is a very good five-and-a-half foot and the autofire mechan i sm kicks in when the firebutton is held down , ensuring a constant stream of bullets during play" 3/5

"Similiar to the Speedking in feel, the Navigator has an 'ergonomically' designed handle which in real terms means it looks like a dodgy my ray gun. The name sug* gests that it's designed with flight/sub/tank sims in mind, hut il can he used for many different types of games, especially as it has an autofire option. If you tike a handle you can grasp then this may be for you"
