MFG Crosswind - Review


Recommended Posts

YesI have the Warthog HOTAS the version 2 of the Wheelpro stand is drilled to accept the Watrhog.

 

I personally wanted a bit more realistic feel so I ended up using 2 Wheelstand Pros which I like the feel of the cockpit placement much better

I know it can be frustrating waiting for a new hardware addition to our favorite past time, but I think those that have been fortunate to have already received their Crosswinds will tell you that the wait, however long, is worth it.:thumbup: Milan is a straight up guy and very conscious of the desire for his product. Being a "simmer" himself, he is constantly looking at ways of improving them and of course, growing his business. That can and does often create backlog issues. Hang in there!

Absolutely they are worth the wait. I've had mine about 8 months and they are wonderful. I also note that his competitors' newest offering uses a cam like Milan's. Which people are buying and then modifying by adding a dampener. Milan''s need no modification at all.

New update on the orders from the newsletter:

 

some dates ...

To be perfectly honest...if everybody who filled preorder intent also decide to Validate their order there will not be enough pedals for everyone in this batch, not even close...in that case it will be likely something like this :

- orders filled till mid November 2014 - delivery date till 15-20.04.2015

- orders filled from mid November till end of 2014 - delivery date by 15.06.2015 or before

- orders filled in 2015 - end of June or July 2015

So I may get my pedals this year!

IMO it's a pity Milan didn't patent hos design ;)

Imagine this product:

1. Top of the line product.

2. Professional, attentive and trustworthy service.

3. Fair price.

Now...stop imagining...as simple as that!

It's what buying products used to be...now theses occasions are, sadly, too rare.

Fortunately, for us, we "have" Milan.

Patents are very expensive to enforce. It is rarely worth it for a small inventor to get a patent unless they intend to sell the rights to the product to a large company.

Well us guys from outside the EU got bumped back so that the Eu people got their pedals first because of tax changes in Croatia. So I would hope to get mine before he runs out of this batch! My original delivery date was 10 Nov 2014

Recall when I got my Crosswinds, Milan asked if I was really satisfied, that I should spread the word since he could stand the exposure.:helpsmilie: I assume he asked that of all his customers. Well Milan, we have :thumbup:and now it is up to you to keep up with the demand my friend.:smilewink:

Really worth the wait!

 

Got mine a couple of weeks ago, and it's a nice feeling to have complete control over the rudders and brakes now.

I have mine mounted on a Playseat Revolution. I had a Saitek Flight Pro before.

 

I'm really looking forward to what he can do if he starts building sticks aswell.

This is a direct quote from Milan's newsletter dated February 15. Other than confirming my mailing address I have not heard further. Has anyone in North America received pedals or further updates?

Not in North America but mine are apparently in the post as of < 48 hours ago to 'Straya.

 

It all just happened in the past few days, perhaps today's your day! :-P

see, now I am not too happy! Waited so that EU people got the best deal, now it appears that he is not following the oldest waiting customers getting the next order.

He's probably spent the past six months in the workshop making hundreds of 'em and just going through the pile of paperwork to get 'em out?

 

Dunno man, sorry :-(

 

...But soon, methinks!
