401TIGGER Posted September 4, 2019 Posted September 4, 2019 winwing site loads with no issue at my end..... (Canada) though..... some of the pics on the site seem...... photoshopped or "enhanced" in some way?? Deadlines..... I love the sound when they go whooshing by..... Windows 10 Pro w WARTHOG HOTAS and Crosswinds MFG Pedals; i7 9700 @ 3.8GHz, Asus, 16 GB RAM; NVidia GTX 2070 GDDR5x VRam11Gb; 500Gb SSD; Oculus Rift S and a partridge in a pear tree :punk:
BMCha Posted September 4, 2019 Posted September 4, 2019 It looks to me like pretty much all the pictures on the site are renders from the CAD models. If you want to see the real thing you have to look at their videos (or photos that they've posted in various places, possibly including this thread). There's certainly plenty in the "Photos" section of the facebook group -- too many for me to repost easily. Here's the full size versions of the images in my earlier screenshot. Also, the question "When will extensions be available to order?" was replied to with "soon".
toogay Posted September 4, 2019 Posted September 4, 2019 (edited) They will update some photos of production progress soon. The production schedule is very smooth and the delivery date should be confirmed in mid-September. The above picture is part of the Chinese installation manual that they have recently produced. The above news is from the Chinese community. Don't worry and be patient. They can't get the money from PayPal before they are shipped. Edited September 4, 2019 by toogay

icemaker Posted September 5, 2019 Posted September 5, 2019 Hi guys i will post an interview of Alex LI CEO of WINWING in next days stay tuned on http://www.checksix-fr.com
sk000tch Posted September 5, 2019 Posted September 5, 2019 (edited) I don’t need another stick (sure I’ll figure out some way to use), but the few sources for a 11” travel hall sensor throttle are 2-3 times the full hotas price. Im considering picking this up mostly for the throttle, but I haven’t been following this thread or the developments. What’s going on? Looks like preorder still open but about to close, first units near ready to ship? Did they provide any technical details on the ministick? Like mfg or any detail? What about other buttons & toggles, or hall sensors? Is there a video of throttle mechanism similar to the gimbal one? *edit- also, what’s up with the panels? The one shown makes sense, but landing and combat ready? Are these replacements for the ops one? Or is landing the panel with anti skid/flaps/jettison controls and combat maybe master arm and AA/AG mode buttons? As in they can be used togaether? Edited September 5, 2019 by sk000tch just a dude who probably doesn't know what he's talking about

toogay Posted September 6, 2019 Posted September 6, 2019 So Alex states preorder ends after the reviews are out. Good to know. It’s after reviews out then few days or a week to close preorder. Enough time for ppl to decide what they really want.

WINWING Posted September 10, 2019 Author Posted September 10, 2019 (edited) Winwing just completed a batch of AATD (advanced aviation training device) device production and delivery for a certain aviation school. Now we have mobilized all production teams to sprint the production schedule of the F/A-18 HOTAS project.

Waxer Posted September 10, 2019 Posted September 10, 2019 Well, it is great to see this progress. It is very nice to these these cast components being finished to such a high standard in CNC machines. And from the stage were are at and can see "September" does not seem totally unrealistic. Encouraging. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
