SpaceMouse Compact (3D mouse, wired, black)

Thought I'd give this a try as I'm using Fusion 360 quite a bit now, I was going to send it back if I didn't like it. This actually exceeded my expectations in how useful it is. I will be keeping it. It only requires very subtle movements and learning to do one movement at a time is a little bit tricky at first, but it comes with training guide and some demo games which are very useful (wish there were more though as they were fun!). I was pushing it round my desk at first as I was being too forceful, but it's fine once you learn to tone things down a bit. Was surprised that it's supported in non-CAD packages such as Word where you can navigate the document using it. Also it allows you to scroll a browser window. It works in OpenSCAD and Prusa Slicer too. It definitely doesn't replace a mouse though, it adds navigation capabilities in addition to the mouse rather than acting as a replacement. Not really using the buttons yet, but they do seem to be very configurable (I'm using Windows). Had a glaring blue LED in it, but fortunately there's an option to turn it off in the advanced settings. It does feel good quality, but think it could be £40 cheaper really. I don't suppose they sell many because of the niche market. I'd definitely recommend this if you are a heavy CAD / 3D Graphics user.

Works perfectly on a MacBook with Autodesk fusion. Makes panning/rotating/zooming in CAD so much easier. Not a replacement for a regular mouse, you need this as well as a regular mouse. Very easy to set up. Note, USB A plug so you may need a USB A to C converter.

Control on this 3Dconnexion Compact spacemouse is superb. If the larger control pad isn't your thing then these are a very good alternative

Perfect!!

Works with the cad programs I've got, on windows and Mac. Drivers were a bit annoying on the Mac, and it's not as easy or intuitive to use as the adverts suggested, but I'm getting used to it steadily. Feels solidly built.

pricey but worth it if you spend a lot of time working in CAD, we don't have this at work so I realy miss it in my job, but at the asking price management don't see the benefit, so I burn time getting the correct positions while working, nice to have, feels far better than keyboard shortcuts, damn cheapskate managers.

I had to change the default axis settings to suit the way my mind works. Once I had done that this device behaves like an extension to your brain. It’s seamless to use. It really helps me use Fusion 260 to the max.

I got this for my partner as he adores using CAD software and so I bought this for him, it works perfectly and he absolutely adores it. It works well and is worth it

É difícil de aprender a usar, não vou mentir. Mas é um produto de excelente qualidade e que realmente ajuda. Comprei pois modelar usando apenas o mouse normal estava me causando tendinite demais. Agora, equilibrando melhor os comandos nas duas mãos, está ajudando muito. Recomendo demais em especial para quem modela muito e tem tendinite ou LER.

super produit très facile a configurer.

Came early Great quality

Ich hab die 3D-Maus hauptsächlich für Fusion 360 gekauft. Vergleichsmodelle habe ich nicht getestet aber meine Erwartungen sind vollends erfüllt. In der ersten Woche der Nutzung war ich etwas mit dem Teil überfordert. Nach Nutzung des Trainingsprogramms und der richtigen Handhabung funktioniert die Navigation durch Fusion 360 völlig problemlos. Pro: - sehr präzise auch auf hoher Geschwindigkeit - sehr feinfühlig - liegt gut in der Hand - schwerer und rutschfester Sockel - ausreichend langes Kabel, qualitativ Hochwertiger USB-Stecker - 2 Buttons haben einen eindeutigen Klickpunkt und sind gut fühlbar - Komfortable zeitsparende Navigation in 3D-Programmen Neutral: - eine gepolsterte Handballenauflage wäre toll (ohne Wertung) - Seriennummer ist am Kabel mit einem Anhänger angebracht. Stört etwas den wertigen Gesamteindruck. Contra: - eigentlich würde ich sagen der Preis, jedoch muss man beachten, wie außerordentlich gut das Gerät verarbeitet und auch zu bedienen ist. Daher habe ich kein wirkliches Manko. Abschließend kann ich die 3DConnexion SpaceMouse Compact nur empfehlen. Sie reagiert präzise und gleichzeitig in Echtzeit und flüssig. Die Software läuft problemlos auf Windows7 und kooperiert prima mit einigen Programmen. Nicht einmal der Preis kann für mich den Gesamteindruck derart trüben, dass ich keine 5 Sterne geben könnte. Ich hoffe die Haltbarkeit spiegelt sich im Preis wieder. Ausgegangen davon, dass ich die Maus wenigstens 5 Jahre nutzen kann, ist sie wiederum nicht zu teuer. Uneingeschränkte Kaufempfehlung für lernwillige 3D-Konstrukteure.

J’ai acheter ce modèle car j’avais déjà le même modèle sur un autre ordinateur et j’en était très content. Remplis parfaitement bien sa fonction
