Sandy Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Any chance the throttle might be in my hands by Christmas? I don't know about the length of preorders - this one hasn't started yet - in the past, so I came here to ask. Couldn't find any info so far except "before february" So, will we have the throttle delivered Christmas? Link to post Share on other sites
Outlaw24 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I doubt it they normally release some information about upcoming products when they are close to their release date, so either they are slow with the info, or it's not close to release. And if they did release it you probably would not receive it until after Christmas due to the virus and holidays, maybe the 1st quarter of 2021.

dburne Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I have not seen a peep out of them on the TECS in some time. 1 Don B My VKB Gunfighter MK III Pro L Review EVGA Z390 Dark MB | i9 9900k CPU @ 5.2 GHz | EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra | 32 GB G Skill Trident Z 3200 MHz CL14 | Corsair H150i Pro Cooler | Samsung 970 Pro, 970 Evo 1TB m.2 Nvme |VKB GF MK III Pro L Ultimate Grip| Virpil CM3 Throttle |Reverb G2 | Link to post Share on other sites
Sokol1_br Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 VKB give the usual hint about TECS here, Tuesday. "Soon" ..."200 bucks" (basic version). And that "soon" is just plans, not promise, and the throttle is "strongly different" from the "teaser" renders. Anyway, if followed the pattern of previous products, will be released a limited batch for collect players feedback for the version two. :) Link to post Share on other sites
dburne Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 In other words don't hold your breath. Original info stated they were about ready for production IIRC. And that was quite some time ago.

Foul Ole Ron Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 They had previously indicated maybe around the Chinese New Year in 2021. We'll just have to wait and see what transpires. Link to post Share on other sites
Dangerzone Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Is this what you're talking about? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Foul Ole Ron Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 That's some very early renders. Apparently it's undergone changes since but nobody has seen any design pictures as VKB keeps its cards pretty close to its chest until release time. Hopefully we'll get some more info in the near future as previously the Lunar New Year (mid-Feb) was floated by VKB as a release date. Link to post Share on other sites
Bbow Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Ooooh....I like that! Looks like a better version of the Virpil throttle. Virpil just has too many buttons and things on the grips. Link to post Share on other sites
Dangerzone Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 You can never have too many buttons. I'll be holding out to see what happens. I'm considering a new throttle as well (I just don't trust Logitech anymore) and was looking seriously at either TM Warthog or Virpil but might be worth holding off a month to see if there's any announcements.
