tugais Posted April 20, 2020 Posted April 20, 2020 Hello WinWing, I was wondering if you already planned something for a 3rd batch before the end of the year or if we will have to wait for 2021. On another note, do you plan to make some changes to the current hardware ? I read on another thread that you were hard at work with the software part, what about the HOTAS itself, do you consider it final ? Thank you. 3rd Wing | 55th Black Alligators * BA-33 Εις ανηρ ουδεις ανηρ
Weasel Posted April 20, 2020 Posted April 20, 2020 And what about the presale (reduction of 100 USD) which was planned after Chinese new year?
chief Posted April 21, 2020 Posted April 21, 2020 I just got an email today saying if I wanted to reorder (I cancelled my original) that the unit would be skipped out within 24 hrs
memoric Posted April 21, 2020 Posted April 21, 2020 I hope they begin to accept new orders soon. @tugais what makes you think it will not be until end of year? Even next year? Have I missed something?
tugais Posted April 22, 2020 Author Posted April 22, 2020 […]@tugais what makes you think it will not be until end of year? Even next year? Have I missed something? I am simply asking about it as I don't know what we can expect from Winwing. With the current global situation there could be some hiccups in production/shipping. 3rd Wing | 55th Black Alligators * BA-33 Εις ανηρ ουδεις ανηρ
Nagilem Posted April 22, 2020 Posted April 22, 2020 @chief - Also got that email. :pilotfly: Specs: I9-9900k; ROG Strix RTX 2080ti; Valve Index HMD; 32GB DDR4 3200 Ram; Samsung 970 EVO 1TB SSD; TM Warthog with pedals, 3 TM MFDs
HuggyBear Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 According to the recent email sent to previous (almost) customers, they have stock ready to ship. Assuming some of those who cancelled their initial orders are still reluctant to trade with WinWing, there should hopefully be stock freely available soon. Pacifism is a shifty doctrine under which a man accepts the benefits of the social group without being willing to pay - and claims a halo for his dishonesty. - Robert A. Heinlein

memoric Posted April 26, 2020 Posted April 26, 2020 so anyone tried ordering and had success? Or have we to wait until official 3rd batch is coming out?
BuzzU Posted April 26, 2020 Posted April 26, 2020 I just checked. As long as you don't want the twist grip it's available right now with or without the extension. I wish my stimulus payment had arrived. I'd buy one. I'm sure they'll all be gone when I get the money. Buzz

tugais Posted April 27, 2020 Author Posted April 27, 2020 I am about to pull the trigger. Does anybody knows if the customs are included in the freight cost displayed on the website ? 3rd Wing | 55th Black Alligators * BA-33 Εις ανηρ ουδεις ανηρ
Bullant Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 I am about to pull the trigger. Does anybody knows if the customs are included in the freight cost displayed on the website ? My guess would be no, unfortunately. I have factored in 10% GST and 10% duty on top of what I paid ...

tugais Posted April 28, 2020 Author Posted April 28, 2020 Thank you for your reply Andrew. Considering where I live, that's a hefty 20% on top of the good value + 20% on top of the postage fee - an incredible $180 for delivering in Europe. That's A LOT. 3rd Wing | 55th Black Alligators * BA-33 Εις ανηρ ουδεις ανηρ
Bullant Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 Was so excited when the Fedex shipping notification said the expected delivery was Friday, right before the long weekend. Now it has blown out to next Wednesday. Bugger!

BuzzU Posted April 29, 2020 Posted April 29, 2020 Well, I got the stimulus payment today and sure enough, I can't buy it now. I asked him to save me one for 2 days and got ignored. Just as well. I don't want to give any money to China anyway. Buzz

tugais Posted April 29, 2020 Author Posted April 29, 2020 The website has some problem since a few days, if you email them they will be back to you within 24 hours with a quote. Once you agreed on the purchase, they'll contact you for the payment. 3rd Wing | 55th Black Alligators * BA-33 Εις ανηρ ουδεις ανηρ
