Buddy-Fox A-10C UFC


Recommended Posts

Starting to worry that I have heard nothing from Buddy Fox website email and nothing from a PM I sent via this site......starting to wonder If I am going to have to take this apart and attempt a repair myself :(

48 hours is standard Thurstmaster customer service response time. Now let´s compare TM number of employees with some guy back in Scandinavia building UFC :D

I mean, wait a bit more, you may forget about warranty when opening the box.

Anyone had any problems with their buddy fox UFC ?? my #3 has quit working completely, button has only been pressed less than 20x ??

 

Yes, same issue with my 0 (zero) key. Hardly used. Very disappointed. Guess I will look for some tips on repairing it. Sounds like it has reliability problems.

My unit has been working flawlessly for several months, and counting. Thanks.

Took a little pre-figuring, but my UFC is working very well as a Viper ICP!

What did you do?

Ok, so my Viper mapping is like this:

 

- Numbers 1 to 0 are pretty self explanatory...

(and yes, they function as just numbers once you're in a DED menu)

 

- The "STEER" rocker at the left edge of the UFC is my IPC "Rocker"

- Enter = Enter

- FUNC = RCL

- IDM = LIST

- COM 1 = COM 1

- COM SEC = COM 2

- COM2 = A-A Mode

- ECCM = A-G Mode

- DATA Rocker = DOBBER UP/DOWN

- INTEN Rocker = DOBBER RET / SEQ

 

That's how I have it right now and it's working great!

I use mine in a similar way for F/A-18, AJS37 and so on. It's really useful :)

any news on using the "Master Caution" for other planes?

 

You can use the Master Caution for any aircraft you can map it to...getting it to flash...that's a different story. Supposedly they were working on this a year ago.

Tested last night and worked like a charm, thanks. I was looking into buying or building an ICP but so far that project is on hold with this workaround.

 

Appreciated!

Seems there are quality issues. My unit has been working flawlessly and it's been used quite a lot.

Not trying to make excuses for him because Phantom_Mark should have been squared away by now. This is a side venture for him and he travels for business and has no ability to address issues until his return. These products are a niche within a niche within a niche. I am glad he has tried to offer something new. Try to send a message on FB or PM him. Don’t give up you spent the money, keep pushing.
