zcaa0g Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I was hoping it would be ready sooner as well assuming it gets funded but the wait is worth it to me because I haven't seen a better button box layout imo. Plus it's not common to get that many dials that are axis as opposed to rotary encoders although it has a couple of those as well I believe.

I think at least 2 other suppliers will have products available shortly. We will get the production going from day 1 if we are funded. I really hope we can start deliveries much earlier. I had to calculate a margin of error not to upset any backers. Earlier deliveries will be a bonus! My latest project, the Multi Function Button Box can be found at Kickstarter.

JackFlash Posted September 14, 2020 Author Share Posted September 14, 2020 Sorry nwant to buy it, but, this is comming the same month as the 30x and reverb 2... Well, those things you could get any time later. This might be the only time to get a Multi Function Button Box. ;-) My latest project, the Multi Function Button Box can be found at Kickstarter.

Lynchsl62 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Nice looking and at a very attractive price. At the moment this market seems to be attracting lots of attention and there are some good products out there or at least on the horizon. Very very tempted, especially as this is an EU product and to be honest it will fall down to Winwing as to whether I commit, but wish you success with the kickstarter - I have book marked the page :thumbup: PC: 9980XE @ 64GB RAM /2080Ti, Samsung C49RG90 Joystick bases: VKB GFIII, FSSB R3L, Brunner CLS-E, Virpil Mongoos CM2 Joystick grips: Realsimulator (F-18CGRH, F-16SGRH-CE), VKB (MCG Pro, F-14, KG-12), Virpil Warbrd Throttles: Virpil CM2, Kantorrin, Other: TrackIR, TM MFDx2 (Cubesim Screenx2), Virpil Control Panel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Import, selling and operating in the EU is illegal, for companies as well as private persons. If national customs check your WinWing shipping, it will be confiscated as the WinWing products are basically illegal in Europe. Ordering from WinWing is a giant risk for european buyers.

Lynchsl62 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 It is a nice looking panel and ticks a lot of boxes.

RoyMi6 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Out of interest, for people that haven't backed, what's stopping you backing? All the alternatives are easily $200 more when you include shipping... I appreciate it's not 1:1 but given the price and extra functionality it seemed like a no brainer to me...

Lynchsl62 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Kickstarter can be a gamble, pay up front to achieve a discount is the reward versus losing the pledge amount. You can wait when the product is released and the early problems ironed out then purchase at additional cost and a few extra months shipping.

As soon as the Kickstarter ends and the goal is met, you pay. But the caveat is: no guarantees that the product will ever be delivered, and of course no money back if it isn't.

zcaa0g Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Looks very nice, but also very expensive for what it is IMO. Shame. There are button boxes that cost twice as much with less functionality. And what button box out there has a better layout and more diverse types of button and encoder options at any cost?
