Yes - you'll receive an email notification with your EMS Express tracking number!

Each product page lists an estimated order processing time :)

Only the VPC MongoosT-50 family of products are on sale, so you're not missing anything with the extension set! The cams are also not compatible with the VPC WarBRD (it has a different gimbal!).

I know - I already have a Mongoos T-50. I want the WarBRD as a second stick for my second rig).

Cheers, for the info re the savings, will just wait for the WarBRD before buying the extensions, then (which, for the record, are also for the T-50).

Z...

Ordered the T-50cm and base and other goodies. Now I need to get rudder pedals and a throttle, suggestions welcome.

Thanks for response. Site now shows VPC MongoosT-50CM Grip in stock.

Now I'm trying to order one online. I can't get past AGREE TO TERMS and PAY steps. I get the error message "please agree to terms of payment" but I cannot find any "links" to do so.

Sorry to be so needy.

I also took advantage of the sale and ordered last week a T-50 base and the desk mount to use with my Warthog stick.

If there is VAT and customs added, I probably will end up at the same price as on Amazon.:(

Even after VAT/Customs the price during the sale should still be below the Amazon price :)

Yah, finally worked after 3 different Browsers. Now all 3 of my credit cards denied. I'm located in US. Suggestions please?

This is 99.9% of the time because your card provider is blocking the international payment (you just need to contact them).

Please email support@virpil.com after if you're still having issues! We'll get it sorted :thumbup:

I'm in the US and mine was denied. So I called the bank an told them that was an authorized charge so they approved it, but I had to re-order at the web site. I also discovered, with my CC, I could go online to see the denied charge, then OK it, and then re-order. It's a pain but at least you know your bank is looking out for you.

Any of you have the T50 and use it for the warthog? Do you find it has enough buttons for everything? I'd like to get another stick and keep my warthog as a backup. But I'm I'm not sure I'll be able to keep the same mappings. Specially for the CMS switch which seems to be just a button on the T50. I would like to take advantage of the sale.

Also looking to mount it I suppose on my desk but wondering if I will run into sizing issues? Worried about mounting in the center of the desk, pic included and if I would end up hitting the stick while pushing my chair forward?

The VPC MongoosT-50 and TM Warthog actually have the same number of input buttons - just the MongoosT-50 has an additional axis for the brake lever!

Also if one buys the warbird, then we just need the mongoos T50 grip right? No regular base?

This is the correspondence between buttons (Warthog grip/ MongoosT-50 grip):

Your desk seems much thick.

To install the VPC Desk Mount, you need:

• the table surface with a chipboard or metal plate with a thickness of 15 to 50 mm;

I did some measurements and the desk is very thick compared to the mount specifications.

I recently moved not long ago so I will not be getting a new desk anytime soon.

Oh well, I do not have many other options anyway . I am hoping the warbird will release soon.

My Warthog stick is beginning to show signs of being worn out so I started researching replacements.

Can't you remove one of the drawers of your desk and then fix the desk mount to the upper plate where you removed the drawer?

Monstertech offers a desk mount for surfaces up to 10cm, don't know if that is enough.

You can take one drawer out and clamp the mount on the lower board of that table. Won't be exactly in the centre of the table, but close.

The upper plate won't work. Only the lower plate/board.

I thought about that but I would rather not remove my desk drawer each time I want to fly. It's from Ikea and eventually those brittle pieces of wood the drawers are made from will break.

I should have thought about it when I bought the desk but I wasn't expecting my stick to go bad on me or at that time even considered mounting as I had been flying with everyone on the desk.

I also looked at the monstertech clamp which I also like because it does not push you out far from the desk but 10cm is not enough. I wonder why they didn't make the portion that clamps down adjustable like the place where the stick sits.

My goal is to order a warbird and t50 black edition grip to go with it. Hopefully soon before my current stick goes kaput.

:smilewink:

Yep, you are right, you have to take the lower plate to be able to fix the desk mount.

Do we know when in March the warBRD base will start going out? Would have liked to take advantage of the sale but guess I'll wait to order the t50 and the warBRD together to save on shipping.
