streakeagle Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Still patiently waiting for DCS world end user reviews of final product. I may end up with two pits: one meant to be a dedicated F-4E pit and one a dedicated F/A-18C pit. The F-4E pit will work with older fighters and the F/A-18C pit will work with modern fighters that have MFD. But I would really like to have one pit set up to have easily removed/replaced front and left side panes to match particular aircraft, at least well enough for VR. So many ideas, so little time, money, and tools. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sk000tch Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I heard from a birdy review units go out soon Maybe that little birdy could post a quick "hey this is really nice" or "don't buy its crap" before taking the time to create a more typical thorough and well produced review. PMs are cool too tho just a dude who probably doesn't know what he's talking about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PMs are cool too tho Winwing stated the preorder discount ends a few days after the reviews are out. No need to rush.

toogay Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I think they have some reasons. The dcs forum is not their own media. Here is not suitable for QA , and it is not easy to manage old threads to new threads and update photos videos. They recommend users to follow their facebook or join facebook comunity group.

Waxer Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I’ll drop $800 on that beast of a throttle but I won’t use Facebook to do it! Totally wrong. Misrepresentation. Winwing did not have a Facebook profile when I purchased the HOTAS. They sold it here on the DCS forums and on their website. Since then they have missed their deadline. They have not provided timely updates on the DCS website or their own website to tell us what is happening. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icemaker Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 They will release the review kits in the next few weeks, they are late because all HOTAS are Hand made. And all fully tested. Just a few days to wait. Maybe you will have the HOTAS when the F-16C is released... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chief Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 First time I seen this topic drop to page 2. Back to page 1! Had anyone heard any news. They obviously got delayed even more cause I think they were supposed to be shipped by mid September even after the first delay. Winwing sure isn't saying much in here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wmacky Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Looks like review models will ship in a few days, but the rest have been delayed again until after the Chinese National Day holiday. So mid October now? This is becoming much like my Pimax kickstarter experience...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icemaker Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Look at their FB group they put news on it very often. And the review models are confirmed shipment in the next days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sperrfeuer Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 (edited) Even if you don't have a FB account you can see some of their news: https://de-de.facebook.com/winwing.cn/?ref=page_internal Quote from FB: We are starting packing the very few units. Will ship out before October 1st. These are give to streamers for review. Other units we plan to ship after Chinese National Day holidays.
