The Moza MH16 on paper is a great option for the AB9 base. Light weight, about half the weight of the Thrustmaster Warthog grip, with the extra buttons, reminiscent of Winwing’s F16EX grip. Unfortunately, the MH16 has missed the mark relative to both competitors.

First thing, the buttons on the MH16 are “clicky” but they feel cheap. Directional presses of the 5-way buttons often result in unindented adjacent presses unlike Thrustmaster’s grip which is much more predictable and precise.

Next the expansion module, though similar to Winwing’s F16EX grip, fails to really shine by adding a 5-way hat and a 3-position selector switch, unlike Winwing’s grip which offers a much more handy analog stick.

Finally, the paddle lever on the MH16 grip is also a binary button rather than a mich more useful axis.

Moza got close on this grip but fell short to create a grip worthy of the AB9 base. If Moza corrects these shortcomings they could create a fantastic mate to their base…

Or make an adapter for Winwing’s F16EX grip (fat chance)!

The MH16 is of excellent build quality.
Sadly one of the buttons don't work. That can happen of course. I did not sent it back to China for replacing. There are plenty enough remaining.
It is a very solid build. The switches and knobs are all in all good. It is out of Aluminium Alloy. It could be improved if you could attached it with a certain degree of offset for center mounting.
Summary: a brilliant peace of hardware with a small quality control failure.
