VKB-SIM

Don’t be. I don’t believe there’s ever been a storm on Earth that lasted seven months (original release date for Gladiator upgrade: February). The reason they won’t post release dates anymore is because it’s embarrassing how far behind their projections are. I don’t blame VKB for the lack of comms, ...

It takes six to twelve months to be able to offer an upgrade. I hazard a guess a throttle won’t exist until at least 2020, and I’d probably bet much later than that.

My guess is the company is having issues. Zero news, zero inputs, zero products. Wish the best for VKB (products - when they actually come out with them - are some of the best), but I'm heading to CH Products after I hear they will delay the MCG upgrade for the Gladiator, like I'm pretty sure they w...

Back from vacations. That's the most important update!

Any update? At some point I have to cut my losses and stop waiting for this in order to fly DCS... I don’t know what that point is, but it’s definitely sooner without any end in sight.

Not if these things are still 2 months to 2 years away. Given that you didn’t provide an update on the product itself, my guess is it’s not in the near future.

Update would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Vacations have little to do with this. Did vacation delay release for the last 5 months? Boy I hope not. Maybe the last one. But even then, if I had grossly blown a deadline at work for 5 months, I would not be taking vacation until I deliver.

I suppose we now know why they continue to blow deadlines. Seems that the fanboy culture is strong here. Unfortunately they simply haven't earned my fandom, yet. At some point, one must stop waiting for something indefinitely and move to something else, inferior or not. I'm still likely going to con...

I don't think anybody disagrees with that. The issue at hand is when you tell somebody you're going to do something or provide them with something, they are going to expect that to come true. This isn't a one-time deal, it's happened for over 6 months. The last one was probably the most painful, bec...

That’s funny! I was going to star a topic along similar lines. I’ve never seen a company who blows every single deadline, until now. I’m really disappointed with the promises not kept in any form/function. Hindsight is 20/20, but had I known I’d have to wait 6 months PAST original projections for th...

In the US shop the timing for release of the MCG grip for the upgrade it says after the upgrade kit is released. My question is how long after? Are we talking weeks, months, year?

I know this isn't exactly Apple's to apples, or what you are intending, but I'm going to start 3d printing my own grips to model wwii aircraft. I believe the first one I plan to do is the Spit Mk9, then P-47 in prep for BoX Bodenplatte (sp?). I'll keep you updated on progress (not for a few months) ...
