WINWING F/A-18C HOTAS 2019.5.29 RELEASE

[DDSSTT]

Please reconsider the selling of the throttle separately, I already have a very expensive Virpil Base and I am not looking to replace it. I am only in the market for the throttle without the panel, as I fly in a full cockpit.

Same here. :thumbup:

 

 

(Still fine with me if the Throttle come with the panel)

[WINWING]

Thank you for replying to my email from this morning to update the forum: appreciated and no doubt reassuring to people. As to the delay itself: don't worry... I think most people will be tolerant of some degree of delay when you are bringing a new product to market. And speaking personally, I'd much rather it be done 'right' rather that 'on time, but at the expense of imperfect/ poor quality'.

 

Personally, I don't use Facebook and I have no intention of doing so. I can't stand the company. For other people that want to communicate with you on there: fine. Your and their choice. But you initiated pre-order sales through the DCS forum: please would you continue to communicate with customers on this forum?

 

One specific question I have is regarding the throttle afterburner detent. On the video currently on Youtube of a prototype there seems to be very little travel within the afterburner zone. Is this modelled accurately? I though that there was a range of throttle movement within the afterburner zone of the throttle movement in the real aircraft. Or was this just a prototype issue, that has been changed on subsequent evolution of throttle design?

 

Cheers, Milou.

 

Thank you Milou all the time.

1.We will keep update info here forever.

2.Yes, we have ware about the afterburner problem several month ago, now it's 20%(degree) of the full travel .Thanks for Captain Lin in US, we got the message by communication with him, hope more pilot responds info to us.

Can you please go ahead and provide the dimensions of the stick and the throttle base with panel installed? The drawing on your website appears to only give dimensions when using the desk mounts.

[WINWING]

Winwing, can you please post here as well? Some of us don't go onto Facebook much, if ever.

 

Thank you.

 

Of course no problem.

Of course we will consider it , but the time and price not decide yet, but must expensive than full hotas.

 

We are not hurry to get order right now, we are focus on the quality and produce.So not discuss it before.

 

 

Thank you for your support.

Dear ,will be there this week, Chinese version has done.

I'll wait for the throttle being sold alone, your produck looks great. Can't wait for first reviews. Good luck.

[Supmua]

Wait, the throttle alone shouldn’t be more expensive than the full HOTAS right? I assume you meant it would be more expensive if you buy them separately.

[icemaker]

Yes i think also he means more expensive alone than separately.

It's like you go buy Bigmac in McDonald's. Combo always cheaper than single order.

The combination can help them save material, labor, and other expenses. For the customer it also saves a little shipping.

Hi, does the throttle come complete with the button panel as illustrated in the photos on the first page?

[markturner1960]

thanks I ask, as in the picture of the panel it says it is coming later....

[Supmua]

Still not that interested in the stick, but that (gigantic) throttle makes everything else look like kid toys...it is definitely on my wishlist.

Update notice

 

Z Axis kit and extensions will release next week and begin for pre-order next week.

 

Will we be able to add an extension to our existing order to have everything shipped together?

 

Thanks

The picture seemed like it was an extension for the throttle. I guess we'll find out next week.

Haha that picture is the standard throttle arm!

 

They have said in the past that we will be able to add the extension to our existing orders in time for it to be included with the stick and throttle when it is delivered. Fingers crossed that is still the case.

I am so tempted to pull the trigger on this, but I want to see DCS end user reviews after a several months of use.

Anyone actually get one of these yet?

 

Also is just the throttle available separately?

No and no.

 

Any word on that throttle video or the dimensions for each unit Winwing?

Not shipping until Sept. Even for the reviewers because they didn't want to give a preproduction units to the reviewers.

 

And they won't sell it separately yet, but it may change in the future.

I am just interested to see if anyone actually receives anything, and if it works. The throttle unit does look pretty tasty thou.
