Nah, they just posted an ad on their facebook page in March. F-16 throttle is in it. https://www.facebook.com/winwing.cn/videos/495107138562027/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stewmanji Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 @Furiz Per the Winwing rep on the HOTAS discord from earlier today in response to a question about the F-16 throttle status: (paraphrased) The throttle is ready to go but they're still working on the stick. They want to release both together so no updates on the throttle until the stick is finalized. They're "close" but no firm ETA. Hangar: A-7 | A-10C | AV-8B | F-14B | F-15C | F-15E | F-16C | F-18C | KA-50 | Mi-8 | SA342 | UH-1H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furiz Posted June 7, 2021 Author Share Posted June 7, 2021 (edited) What a strange buisness policy from them, there is gazillion of people that just need the throttle, and yet they are not giving any buying option but to buy it with the stick, like the F-18 combo. Btw that was the statement about 3 months ago. Thnx. Btw cant find their Discord, can you give me a link? Edited June 7, 2021 by Furiz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xoxen Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 If I saw it correctly in the WW shop there is the throttle without handles (Gemini throttle, $129,95) and the F/A-18 metal handles ($215,95) for a total of $345,90 + tax and shipment. Need to think about it.

Need to think about it. The base is meant for helicopter grips (thus, no switches), but in any case the handles you mention are for the Super Taurus and won't fit the Orion/Gemini throttle. i386DX40@42 MHz w/i387 CP, 4 MB RAM (8*512 kB), Trident 8900C 1 MB w/16-bit RAMDAC ISA, Quantum 340 MB UDMA33, SB 16, DOS 6.22 w/QEMM + Win3.11CE, Quickshot 1btn 2axis, Numpad as hat. 2 FPH on a good day, 1 FPH avg.

xoxen Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 OK, my fault. So it is still not available seperately. Thanks for the clarification.

Marky146 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Orion wasn't available separately either. I've put the old TM Cougar stick on my Orion Stick. Will be interesting if they do the F16 Throttle and adapter plates with a Stick handle as a combo. The F16 should really get a rigid force stick though. Clevo P775TM1-G laptop with 9900K and RTX2080.

Marky146 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 They work as buttons but not through the TARGET software. I think you have to manually bind them but to be honest I haven't used it for a while. Complicated but I'm concentrating on my airline setup for practice while stuck on Furlough. Day job comes first.... Clevo P775TM1-G laptop with 9900K and RTX2080.

sniperpr1 Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Now I'm confused because I bought the f18 throttle grips since in the description of the Gemini base it said that: "Compatible with other winwing throttle grip." And I want to buy the Gemini. I hope it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
