Let me edit this so MSally approves "just hinges off the F-18 UFC" and then OMG it transforms!

Is that better?

Hmm, just hinges off the F-18 UFC

Honestly, As an exclusively VR player, I've been eyeing a 'Phoenix MIP' for quite some time. But since I don't spend nearly as much stick time in the Hornet as I do in the Viper, I couldn't bring myself to pull the trigger.  Having a QUICK change ICP/UFC... well... I'll be watching the WW webstore like a hawk...

Look very good quality. Very good job from winwing

To be honest, as a VR only pilot, I wish they would do a ”light version” without the DED. I have no use for that at all.

Pull it off and lower price with 25-50€. But If the price is right I will probably order one anyway

Question for the VR pilots, are you combining this type of device with Pass through cameras ? So you can operate them in VR.

For me, No... all by touch/muscle memory.   I'm currently using a pair of Cougar MFDs and a 4x8 streamdeck programmed as the ICP.  I have Braille keyboard markers on specific keys and an image of the mapping on a kneeboard page if I forget. (But at this point, I never really reference it anymore).

Same here, it’s all muscle memory. I have put some plastic dots on my cougar mfds (dots from cupboard door dampeners).

Makes it easier to feel which buttons I need to find.

Thankyou for your answers.

Maybe I'm slow, but I'm confused. Does this require the Hornet UFC? Or can it just be joined with it if you already have it. It seems like it's standalone but I honestly can't tell. 

Looks awesome though. Layout is right off the image of the Block 70 on Lockheed's website, which I think is badass.

From what I can tell from the video, it should be standalone. Joining it with the UFC is certainly just an option so that you can easily switch between the airframes/cockpits without disassambling either one everytime.

Im really impressed with what winwing is doing these days. I have their f18 setup with mfds and ufc as well as the Orion 2 throttle with f18 and 16 throttles. I love it. I fly only in vr but the mfds are and ufc are very easy to use. I can use the pass through on the pico if I need to do more on the ufc. I’m pretty sure I’ll get this f16 icp! 
I just wish now they’d make an Apache TEDAC

Narrated in Spanish with English subtitles. I hope it can help you get an idea of what the new F-16 ICP is like.
Merry Christmas to everyone!

I'll have a small review up over the weekend.

We have an almost identical rig setup! Even the same pc case! I’m very happy with the winwing stuff so far and also extremely happy with the NLR setup.

For what I've seen on reviews the enter button is the "longest" with the recall button being slightly shorter and the rest of the buttons shorter than that. There is one brail dot under the 2 and 2 brail dots under the six. So VR shouldn't be a problem

[Eisprinzessin]

For me its kinda weird. I have strange artefacts right after entering the F16 in the game. See Attachements.

Maybe i set up something wrong?

Well you can reset the configuration in SimApp Pro with the "Restore default configuration" tab. Worth a try in any case.

Other than that you should maybe check for a firmware or software update. When I received mine a firmware update was available and a few days prior to launch the SimApp Pro software received an update.

The current firmware for the ICP should read 1.01.

 

However mine never did any of that. I would assume a faulty display to be honest.

It is probably a case for the horrendous support. 

[MustangSally]

Go into Simappro, select the ICP in devices and click on the following..

All LCD off - Display should go blank

Then click the buttons below in order - you should see individual patterns display.

If that works fine, you have an issue with DCS or windows
