cordite Posted November 30, 2021 Posted November 30, 2021 Not sure why they took it down. It's just a pre-order, and if they want to get to 200 of those...
Blackdog Posted December 26, 2021 Posted December 26, 2021 RealSimulator home page has a picture of the F-16 (even has the countermeasure punch button) and a video of the prototype: https://realsimulator.com/ I don't have an interest in the F-35 throttle head, but definitely the Viper throttle!
Blackdog Posted January 27, 2022 Posted January 27, 2022 Game on DCS Viper drivers.. RealSimulator F-16 throttle pre-order is on, let's make this happen (don't settle for that other new F-16 throttle option!): https://realsimulator.com/lineal-throttles/ (in no way affiliated FWIW, just a DCS Viper pilot who wants to hit the 200 pre-orders to keep the batch price down & have a bad ass Viper throttle to compliment my FSSB stick). 1
Supmua Posted January 28, 2022 Author Posted January 28, 2022 Much cheaper than the F-35 setup at the current preorder price. Personally, I want the F-35 setup but am tempted.

cordite Posted January 28, 2022 Posted January 28, 2022 But even more compared to the previous preorder, which was expected. Just tempering expectations.

Burt Posted January 30, 2022 Posted January 30, 2022 Great to see they added Realsimulator to the list. I’m also tempting to get the F35 throttle.

Supmua Posted January 31, 2022 Author Posted January 31, 2022 The F35 throttle grip works great with any plane, especially the A-10C, as it has more switches than you’d need.

FlyingDog Posted January 31, 2022 Posted January 31, 2022 It looks wonderful! I am considering the f-16 throttle. But I worried that they have enough time to test the f-16 grip. I think that the original pre-order is for f35 grip and they changed the pre-order plan.
kitcho75 Posted February 1, 2022 Posted February 1, 2022 Love the grip/throttle. But that was the most annoying video clip I have watched.

Richi Posted April 23, 2023 Posted April 23, 2023 I owned a Thrustmaster 16000 for a while. I can say for myself that there is nothing worse than the linear movement of the throttle. Unnatural, unpleasant, generally stupid. 1
BaronVonVaderham Posted November 17, 2023 Posted November 17, 2023 Not seeing the point of a throttle that does not reflect the real one. Seems a bit of tech for the sake of tech. I’m totally appreciative of concessions on simulated controls for pragmatic reasons, but a linear quadrant is actually less pragmatic than a rotation quadrant when it comes to development of the simulated control.

I’m totally appreciative of concessions on simulated controls for pragmatic reasons, but a linear quadrant is actually less pragmatic than a rotation quadrant when it comes to development of the simulated control. The WW and TM both have less linear travel then they should, which impacts precision, and have shorter arms than they should, which results in more rotation of the grip. A full travel linear throttle is a better compromise imo although I would prefer a throttle with the correct arc. 1
Phantom711 Posted November 18, 2023 Posted November 18, 2023 They made an F-35 throttle...I think the F-16 version was just a side hustle. It doesn´t seem to be available anymore anyways. vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs. Join the vCVW-17 Discord.

However they have been showing off their VR training seat to professional users and these are fitted with the linear throttle with either F35, EF2000 or F16 grip. Hopefully this means production is imminent. Edited November 20, 2023 by Scott-S6
Scott-S6 Posted December 10, 2023 Posted December 10, 2023 (edited) On the realsimulator news page - "Finally, we advise you to pay attention to our website because in the coming days, we will present new products!" So, throttles maybe? Edited December 10, 2023 by Scott-S6
