RogueSqdn Posted October 1, 2019 Author Share Posted October 1, 2019 Might be a while. I’m going to the beach on Thursday so now I have to figure out who’s going to get the package off my porch!

lunaticfringe Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Outstanding piece of work, gentlemen. Now just waiting on my WarBRD to ship, since I thought I'd have an extra day or two to order with the message that preorders would be out by the 15th.

Mnemonic Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 I also ordered June 21 but yet no message about shipping, patiently waiting :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunaticfringe Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) Admittedly, I think I was very high in the sequence- the preorders opened at 16:00 GMT, and my invoice time was 16:00:48. Worked out as we were sitting in a showing of TS4 with the kids, and the previews were just starting- so I was able to have the page all loaded to go. They got their toys, now I have mine. ;) Edit: yeah, I think this explains it. Edited October 4, 2019 by lunaticfringe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueSqdn Posted October 4, 2019 Author Share Posted October 4, 2019 Mine was attempted this morning but I’m out of town until Tuesday and had to call FedEx to hold it. Will pickup at office.

Nightstalker Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 I have no interest in the twist option on the stick as I strictly use my rudder pedals. Have you noticed any play when the twist is locked out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky you! My preorder was placed also on June 21st and nothing, not a single msg or email. VPC ACE-2 Rudder Pedals and VPC V.F.X Grip and in my invoice : [Dispatched Within 90 Days] Within definition by dictionary.cambridge.org/us/: Inside or not beyond (a particular area, limit, or period of time) Virpil certainly doesn't know this definition. I do not intend to buy anything more pre order with them, it is the second time they do not respect dates. :( Edited October 8, 2019 by Hamilton _________________________________ Aorus Z390 Extreme MB | i9 9900k CPU @ 5.0 GHz | EVGA RTX 2080 Ti FTW3 Ultra | 32 GB G Skill Trident Z 3600 MHz CL14 DDR4 Ram | Corsair H150i Pro Cooler | Corsair TX 850M PS | Samsung 970 Evo Plus M.2 NVMe SSD 1TB |TMWH Hotas with VPC WarBRD Base| Corsair Gamer 570x Crystal Case | HP Reverb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dear Cyph3r Ok, in the email quoted you said: "However these items are currently in production as we speak" Not true, several have already received the product and with the same date of pre order. "the 90 day timeframe is an estimate" Not true, my invoice stated clearly "Dispatched Within 90 Days" Within definition by dictionary.cambridge.org/us/: Inside or not beyond (a particular area, limit, or period of time) _________________________________ Aorus Z390 Extreme MB | i9 9900k CPU @ 5.0 GHz | EVGA RTX 2080 Ti FTW3 Ultra | 32 GB G Skill Trident Z 3600 MHz CL14 DDR4 Ram | Corsair H150i Pro Cooler | Corsair TX 850M PS | Samsung 970 Evo Plus M.2 NVMe SSD 1TB |TMWH Hotas with VPC WarBRD Base| Corsair Gamer 570x Crystal Case | HP Reverb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got a huge number of pre-orders to work through, but as per our recent announcement and my last email to you directly we're scheduled to get the remaining pre-orders out on 15th October :) We do apologise for this delay, but your patience is appreciated! Our official pre-order announcement for these items, as well as the pre-order information page confirmed that any changes to the time frame will be announced and you can of course contact us directly for clarification on the latest status. Your previous post mentioned you hadn't received a single message or email from us even though we had chatted previously with the current status of the pre-orders, so I just wanted to clarify this! ► Website: www.virpil.com // ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/VirPilControls // ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/VirPilControls For support please email support@virpil.com to open a ticket!

Yes, and I confirm. I sent the email when I saw that the promised deadline had expired, then you answered the email I sent last month. I mentioned in my previous post that I didn't receive any email or message from virpil (on their own initiative) saying anything about the delay, even after I had already spent € 775.00 on their products. _________________________________ Aorus Z390 Extreme MB | i9 9900k CPU @ 5.0 GHz | EVGA RTX 2080 Ti FTW3 Ultra | 32 GB G Skill Trident Z 3600 MHz CL14 DDR4 Ram | Corsair H150i Pro Cooler | Corsair TX 850M PS | Samsung 970 Evo Plus M.2 NVMe SSD 1TB |TMWH Hotas with VPC WarBRD Base| Corsair Gamer 570x Crystal Case | HP Reverb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RogueSqdn Posted October 11, 2019 Author Share Posted October 11, 2019 Any reviews or thoughts on the stick? To be honest I haven’t had time to do anything other than set up a profile for it in the VPC software. I’ve been busier with the throttle, adding the 3D printed finger lift mod.

Nightstalker Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I'm really torn on ordering the new throttle or the old one. I really like the look of the new grip. It looks much shorter than my Mongoos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoffster Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 One video is out on YT showing the grip, waiting for an in depth review hopefully soon. I might get it to ressurect my ancient first batch T-50 base i have on my shelf, tempting if it is any good :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
