Mule Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 I use self-adhesive velcro strips and works fine :thumbup: Yep, same here. I use the same stuff to mount MFD's on a second monitor. Works a charm and easy to take off when needed. Fighter Pilot Podcast.
Phantom_Mark Posted September 16, 2019 Posted September 16, 2019 Anyone had any problems with their buddy fox UFC ?? my #3 has quit working completely, button has only been pressed less than 20x ??
Phantom_Mark Posted September 18, 2019 Posted September 18, 2019 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 :(

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. i5 8400 | 32 Gb RAM | RTX 2080Ti | Virpil Mongoose T-50 base w/ Warthog & Hornet sticks | Warthog throttle | Cougar throttle USB | Orion 2 throttle base w/ Viper & Hornet grips| VKB T-Rudder Mk IV | Oculus Rift S | Buddy-Fox A-10 UFC | 2x TM MFDs & 1x WW DDI | 2x Bass shakers | SIMple SIMpit chair | WW TakeOff panel | Andre JetSeat | WW Hornet UFC | WW Viper ICP FC3 - Warthog - F-5E - Harrier - NTTR - Hornet - Tomcat - Huey - Viper - C-101 - PG - Hip - SuperCarrier - Syria - Warthog II - Hind - South Atlantic - Sinai - Strike Eagle - Phantom - Mirage F1 - Afghanistan - Irak
Phantom_Mark Posted September 18, 2019 Posted September 18, 2019 Sure thing, I won't jump the gun yet......just surprised that's all. Fingers crossed anyway.
Phantom_Mark Posted September 27, 2019 Posted September 27, 2019 Well I can only guess there will be no response now, disappointing, looks like I will have to take it apart myself then, slightly sour taste in the mouth, at this point I sadly cannot recommend this UFC if there is no backup when things sadly go wrong.
ah64aviator Posted September 27, 2019 Posted September 27, 2019 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.
Phantom_Mark Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 Really annoying as the build quality and finish to look at visually is very high standard, maybe it is possible we can swap out the offending switches inside for something better maybe ?

Emmy Posted October 20, 2019 Posted October 20, 2019 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!

b0bl00i Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 any news on using the "Master Caution" for other planes? I actually emailed buddyfox for this and they said they was just a bit lazy and would fix it "soon". (my email was probably sent before summer..) We should keep asking.
Phantom_Mark Posted November 17, 2019 Posted November 17, 2019 My unit has been broken since it arrived (within hours), I had a couple of exchanges via PM here and not heard a thing since.......written the unit off as a loss now sadly...... very disappointing. I will see if I can fix it myself one day I guess, probably just a bad switch. :(

Fusedspine33 Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 Buddy-Fox A-10C UFC 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. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
