WINWING F/A-18C HOTAS 2019.7.3 RELEASE

Hi Winwing!

Will you sell a Falcon (A-10) grip for the gimbal as well?

There are already prototype pictures of the F-16 / A-10 grip on their previous forum postings .And they have said that such a grip is on their product pipeline. The joystick base and throttle base are clearly designed to be able to be used as a system with interchangeable grips and throttle handles.

Hi Winwing!

they might have plan for F16 grip for joystick and throttle. but not this time.

Well, the first port shows a F-16 grip. That's why I'm asking.

Hello,

 

1.The review products will deliver in early august, so the review time is not decide by us, but I think everyone got our products want release first.

 

 

 

2. Tomorrow you can check the freight by UPS system in our website.

 

 

 

3.We have big dream, and we have good tech and attitude, but all decide by how many we can sell in this marketing.

 

 

 

Thanks for your support.

I really support this attitude and I couldn't wish more than your and my dreams comes true.

I assume (and also hope) that your Hornet Hotas system will be a big success and I therefore hope you can realize your dreams with many other ideas and projects.

It was always my dream to have some panels for the hornet so that I control quite all systems without using the mouse and just use the switches and knobs from the panels.

Really looking forward for the reviews and tests from the testers

Hmmm, on checkout it's telling me 800 dollars freight? Surely that isn't right. And once you submit it (not yet paid) you cannot remove it.

Edit, looks like they changed the preorder date again:

Change notification : Pre-order event time change to July 10, 2019, 9pm GMT+8

Sorry for the delay, we still need fix the website UPS API issue.

yes,terrible UPS API. they might plan change other express company. delay news coming soon.:(

And the website is not allowing me to enter a new account address.

Good to see heaps more info on the shop link, however ...

 

 

 

Hopefully the finger lifts are only required for the Idle detent, the afterburner should be a push through.

FWIW: I think it should be up to the user to select push-through detent or lift-detent.

For me, a push-through detent would not be preferable. I much prefer a lift-detent.

Pre order delayed again: new date 10 July. Changing shipping company.

Winwing, one suggestion. I hope you guys are in contact with other forums dedicated to flighsims. Mudspike, SimHQ.com. And other popular reviewers like BeachAV8R (Chris Frishmuth), FroogleSim come to mind. DCS is a great start, but you guys should expand the audience (if not already done)

For me...If I am paying that much money...I want a COPY of the real plane...The Real plane uses Finger lifts for Off-Idle / Idle-Off and Push through for burner.

I don't see it as an issue though because they seem determined to make anyone who wants to use their F-18 Throttles and Control panel use heir flight stick. I'm not interested in their Stick. I have one I'm quite happy. Should they market the Throttles and Side panel separately i'm in but not before.

Agree 100% but I am happy if it is user configurable.

I'd be in for the throttle; side panel is a waste of space for my purposes. Not holding my breath, but I'm gearing up to make my own throttle since nobody will make one for me.

Hi, you mention Takeoff and "Combat Ready" panels "coming soon" (https://winwing.cn/en/JOYSTICK). What will these contain? Any early sketches?

Hello, We will release later in right time. thank you.

Very sorry every dear customer. Because of the terrible UPS API system, We have to delay again to 10th,July. We have big trouble with shipping cost calulate. We are planing use other express company.

we got all your questions/requirement about products/website/reviews.

1)The website must have SSL certification, this is done.

2)We have just move the website to a new server in US to make sure all you can visit it.

3)Because the website is used for professional simulator and have no online store before, we need more time to prepare it.

4)Terrible UPS, their sale manager told me this morning ,the discount of freight has run ,but just a mistake of display. what's a joke? we will use Fedex/DHL or some other express instead of them.

5)Again, we have a big dream of sim fighter world, Chinese, one of the world's factory must be the NO.1 in HOTAS marketing. Not only F18, and not only HOTAS. but let's move the first step and show you what we performance! So , please don't ask if we will sell A10/F16 Grip etc. We will do all for you if we have good deal here. If you want, we can full your bookshelf with all kind of Grips. I have full myself's already.

6)About detail of Throttle, all your worry is not need! Review from some pilots and new video from us will show it.

7)I don't care what user say right now ,because you have not see a review, I full understand. You can ask more pilots come and see, let's famous or downfall!

Looks like the Fedex freight price is much more reasonable. :)

Can we order now or should we wait for the official go?

You must have got lucky, still showing as sold out to me.

Yea, I better wait until they give the go just in case.

they might have plan for F16 grip for joystick and throttle. but not this time.

Weird, I only get the "sorry, pre order is delayed" I guess I'll check at 6AM Pacific. That should be 9PM Shanghai time.

And I am having problems where the shop website will not save my postage address. I can enter all the information, but the "save consignee address" button does nothing. (I am in the UK, if that makes any difference).

Decided to jump for this. Order went through via PayPal. Hopefully it’ll come before my knee surgery in September!

I might need F-16 throttle. I hope they'd make it someday with a good price.

Dear all, the first Pre-order begin now. Enjoy it :)

Well, that's it... I am in Marshal holding pattern. Now I just need to remain patient!

(I expect customs will be another kick in the nuts).

47 sets left.
