In the pivot, not a lot of difference in the feel (the newer is a little more positively located, but not enough to matter much when compared to the stock junk).

The new version allows you to change between 20 and 33% throw reduction, and has both manual and automatic reverse lockouts. You can also adjust the stick position side-to-side with the newer model.

If none of the ancillaries matter much to you, then go with the older version.

The gen 1 shifters;
- You selected your throw reduction when you ordered it.
- You bought a reverse lockout kit and added it (I guess that would be an auto lock out)
- Stiffer springes were offered to help with shifting ( I run stiffer springs on the R-1 plane.

Best upgrade to my 914 (no counting the SIX).

Correct.

0% (I sold less than 10 of them), 20% or 33%. It was hard decision for many people and it was split on people that like one over the other.

Yes, it was auto lockout.
