    What was the total on your winwing invoice that came with the shipment? I have 4 packages coming, and already one is still in China and the rest are in Memphis. I think it would be better if they shipped it all in one box.

    PQ Labs makes ir frames. I have a G5s. It's 4k resolution and multitouch(you choose if you want anywhere from 2 to 30 simultaneous touch points). I think the smallest is 27". I use a 42" in my recording studio. I had to have a 1/8" thick tempered glass made that fits inside the frame. Frame fits over any monitor/TV. I sourced my ir frame directly from China and it was a lot cheaper.

    If I keep giving him consent to fire, eventually he fires. But yes, I get the same sometimes. This is in multiplayer BTW...

    That's an odd place for a break, unless there's movement in that area. Probably the flat part of the pin was already stressed or week and over the 6 months finally broke. Can't really see it in close so not sure if there's a temp fix.

    Yeah that's all I had to do, a few other minor adjustments and it seems much easier to transition to a hover. Still can't get George to pay attention when things get hot...

    Probably not till it gets to North America will you see any meaningful updates.

    Ordered April 2nd, Just got the email to pay, paid up now awaiting delivery email.

    As per the fox2 site: As the Fox2 site Manager Tony has been transferred to Winwing Manager of community so Now we have decided to combine the Fox2 store with WINWING main store. Your order/pre-order from Fox2 will be kept until the late of April, we will move your user/order info to Winwing simstore.

    I ordered 04/02 so given the current pace I'm thinking end of May.

    Worst case scenario, it acts as a hand massager for those long flights I have one otw also, but it's not a feature I would be too quick to utilize.

    What about the Orion2 Collective? Metal roller? I don't have one yet, awaiting order, but would that work?
  12. CaptHawk
    Ordered F16EX, F18 Throttle, and Collective April 2nd. No purchase email yet.
  13. CaptHawk
    Maybe sell the Idea to winning and they could sell it as an add-on for those that "need" it Nice work BTW!
  14. CaptHawk
    And...you can add the Collective to this base.
  15. CaptHawk
    I'm going to attach mine to the chair. Fabricated some brackets that bolt on to the chair on the side for the Throttle and at the front for the Stick. And they are quickly removable. Still waiting on the Throttle , Stick and Collective though. So we'll see how it works out.

    I guess they will work out their stock issue once the Government Restrictions due to Covid, like the current lockdowns they are having there, are lifted and production can move along. Makes sense, no?

    Also, if all of you are new to DCS, it would probably be very beneficial to have someone who has lots of experience fly with you. Help with Multiplayer, setting up your own server, integrating SRS comms, creating mission/campaigns in the mission editor, what scripting is out there like Moose to help with mission building. There's a lot going on behind the scenes but once it's all set up, it becomes so immersive. Welcome to DCS!

    I would approach those IPV's at a standoff position. Now on something like a SA15, we were waiting for the F18's to take them out as we tooled around getting them to light up. But no joy from the F18's(newbies trying to figure out the Harms) so we targeted one and I flew directly at it about 10ft off the ground and the missiles went right over us exploding out of range. I repeated this several times and we managed to take 3 SA15's before running out of flares/chaff and returning to farp.
  19. CaptHawk
    This is all three...F18, F16, Collective. So you'll get which one you ordered but now all interchangeable on this throttle, or so it seems to be showing. And it says all pre orders will get this new throttle
  20. CaptHawk
    Think these will be the new F18 Throttles? I ordered about a week ago so hopefully when they get production happening again it would be this with the finger lifts
  21. CaptHawk
    MFD's
  22. CaptHawk
    Yeah and that's ground. WinWing ships Fedex Express so not cheap, unless they get a volume discount but I can't imagine they would ship that much out daily. Is the Joystick Handle and Bases shipped separately making it a 2 package shipment? I ordered the F16x, the F18 throttle, and the Collective. Would that be 5 boxes?
  23. CaptHawk
    Yeh, usually the links good for 2 weeks then someone has to re new.
  24. CaptHawk
    So to re cap, when you get the "Pre Order Payment Email", then you're good to go. You have 48hrs to pay. Sounds simple enough. Lot's of factors going into production in this current time. I completely understand the situation. And look forward to the day that a F16x stick, throttle, and collective may arrive, hopefully by this year.
  25. CaptHawk
    Yep, takes lots of practice and a light touch. I'm past rolling over on landings but still, the Apache sure can take hard landings
