I just got an email saying (sent) No tracking numbers

zero or ambiguous updates after sending a ticket I agree with you this is the part that bothers me. An email saying we are working on your order but are behind in shipping is ok to do to let your customer know something is happening. Zero movement on your order status Zero emails saying anything puts you in the limbo land what the heck is going on!

On the 24th of this month ? or last month? I have 2 support tickets in, still nothing:cry:

how long ago did you order yours? Ive had mine ordered since 3/14/2018 and still have not received a shipping notice or tracking info. I'm getting a bit frustrated with this lack of info and long delay, especially since they have CASHED the check since 3/14

Well guys I've had my Crosswinds for 3 years now and if someone made me chose between my pedals and my wife. I would have to say it's too hard unpluging them from my computer, so the wife you got to go!! %^)

I figured I'd check in after a year and give an update,I posted this last year around this time Well for those of you who are wondering how the Crosswind pedals will last after repeated use, I pretty sure I can give you an answer. I have had these pedals for 2 years now as of this Christmas. SN / 067 I have all the flight sims ROF /IL2 /BOS /COD /MS FS and of coruse DCS, and there are very few evenings where I am not flying one or the other. After 2 years of repeated use I have not had a single issue, they are working now, just like they did right out of the box! Pivot points are still tight and acuracy is still like new. They show no signs of wear other that needing a little dusting. I wish I could say the same for my other hotas and pedals! They are by far the best money I have ever spent for my system and are the best pedals I have ever owned. The reason I can say that is because I have a closet full of pedal from other companys, along with all the other hotas systems ever made. Precission is flawless even at 2 years old and the assembly is very robust. I would not trade, sell them for any price. You cant go wrong with the MFG Crosswind for the price you pay! Best money I ever spent! Panp :cry_2:and as you can see im crying now :cry_2: I got a look at the new graphite colors and really like them !!!!:clap_2: The problem I have is that my pedals are still working like they were when I first bought them. Not a single issue in 3 years of heavy use Pivot points are still tight and acuracy is still like new after 3 years:yes: Precission is still flawless My new years resolution will be to try and wear this set out and talk the wife into a new set, :joystick: aHHH maybe next year or the year after at this rate :thumbup: Panp

I just had the same issue as you. I had a power failure and my battery backup was working, but I guess I had a spike or surge before it kicked in Fired the PC back up when power was restored and wham no throttle Still waiting on support to tell me what they are going to do if anything! I'm in the same boat as you, waranty just expired By the way the bare spots on the base are to allow the grounds for each board (red wire and ring terminal) to ground to each board through the base plate. You might consider making a better ground to the base plate, that plastic post thats broken wont put enough pressure on the ring terminal to create a good ground. also has anybody else noticed the lack of availibility of the warthog for online retailers? I could order one today but it wont ship untill sept 22, seems strange to me

I'm not familiar with that [ --noreplay --trackfile ] commands? How can I try this and what and where would one use this command?

I disagree with the hardware issue as my system is rock solid. Part of good trouble shooting is looking at what has changed and going back to the last thing that was changed, I this case it would be DCS world. I have a dual boot system with this same operating system imaged on another drive which has A10 C / FC 1 and black shark on it without the DCS world and all run just fine. I have also so ran a disk check and sfc / scanow with no reported issue. I have also uninstalled nvidia drivers and installed an older driver set (same results) Changed page file and size and location to another drive. I have many other games that are demanding on a system and have not had any issues. I have run many a stress test on this system with out any issue or crashes all in all this points to DCS World 1.26 and 1.27 as the culprit. Bottom line for me is that I just paid for additional content that requires DCS world to work and that isn't happening. Hopefully they will get enough info and will be able to find the root cause.

1.2.7 beta It also was crashing on 1.2.6 which is why I was trying the 1.2.7 beta I'm getting a random crash to a lock up and then to a black screen. It is happening at a random time frame, sometime within a few minutes and sometime after 10 to 15 minutes and sometimes not at all. symtons are all the same, Picture freezes up then the game sound freezes and then a crash to a black screen all within a few( 15) seconds. Hard reset required to restart windows. It will happen with the P51 / Uh1 / A10 C modules. I have cleared out all old ms visual c ++ with Revo uninstaller that will also clear out registry files after removel and reinstalled MS visual c++ 2012 Im running the same res as desktop (2560x 1600) with 4 x AA. it has happened on the P51 free flight and also the training missions. It has happened on the dogfight the 190 mission. UH1 free flight and oil rig mission. I did not have DCS world installed before and did not have any issue or crashes with the A10 C / FC 1 or the KA 50 latest crash was on the UH1 free flight after about 10 minutes of flying. I did notice that textures on buildings started to flicker in and out right before this latest crash.

(if you are going to upload so many photos in such high resolution post them as thumbnails, seriously.) I know, he is like a photo spammer !!! Many of what he post has allready been posted in this thread or the Photo thread.

Vortex ring state happens in a hover with little to no forward speed and not with that much forward airspeed. First tail boom strike at 25 and second at 28-29 on that ridge as he tried to pull up causing the tail boom separation.:joystick: The rest was inevitable:doh:

The smoke from the P51 was and is caused by a boil off cooling system that was installed for racing. If you look closely at this aircraft you will see that it does not have a standard cooling scoop and coolant control mechanisim under the center of the wing, as a standard p51 would have. If you do not see smoke with a system like this, you have a problem! See this link at 3:10 for the boil off cooling system in action on Galloping Ghost http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXu2GfT9WcI
