Hello,
I got mine few days ago (but I was on trip and could not check it before).
A short debrief of the unboxing :
-Nice box, lokk's like pro.
-The seat it seems a good quality material
-The cable are far too short for "complex cockpit" as mine, I had to add extension to power-lead cable, usb (and unfortunately sound as well !)
-No DOC !
-NO CD, DVD with software !
-No key for software activation (even through they sent me a mail to offer me both softwares for free because of the extra delay I face) - I did contact them, but still waiting their answer ...
I have downloaded doc and software from the net. (By the way I was surprise to find two set of software with same name and same functions, but not driving same seats !!!)
Installation and wiring is quite easy and direct.
Software point of view :
- forcefeel control center demonstrates the correct installation and comm. with the seat (un USB mode).
- SimShaker - Wing (in demo mode !! thanks REALTUS !!) seems not to communicate with the seat in usb mode (not talking about the DCS not yet present in the list, but even the TEST button does not provide any response from the seat).
- By curriousity I test Simshaker - Wheel and got the same result (non-response should I say !) until I move to the very-last beta version with which the TEST button did work ==> seems their software guys are progressing (but not on the Wing software part).
As most of you I am surprised that after a 8-10 month delivery date, the software is not ready on time (especially while it did works with the previous generation ... gametrix ...)
This weekend I will get a try in sound mode , even if this not the mode I initially planned to use ... and give you some in-flight feedback
Anyway, Hope everybody will have nice flights !!!
