Already out of stock...

The MCG-Pro was out for like 4 days.....

This is ridiculously annoying.

Have the money today to buy it...I go to website for purchase....

OUT OF STOCK.....

Unavailable in AliExpress too.

Also, dealer website shipping is for DHL Express, but AliExpress shipping is "AliExpress Standard Shipping" which says 19-39 days....

WHAT? 39 days???

Happy coming New Year fellow pilots,
First, thank you all so very much for your concern and questions about availability of the GFs. Here is the first hand explanation.
As I said (perhaps not as loudly as to be heard in every corner) - GUNFIGHTERS with MCG/MCGPRO are no rationed any longer. :)
No stock at Ali, no stock here, no stock there - relax, it is all Xmas/New Year heat. We put mailing orders out on hold till the first Monday of 2019, but we do have stock. There were issues previous years with parcels lost and misdelivered during this craziest time of the year, and bouncing like a ping pong ball between the buyer and the mail operator was very little joy. So let the heat cool down, and we will resume the sales.
We have a daily limit on shipments so please do not panic, if after Jan., 7 the shop shows no stock, just come next morning.
Thank you all again, and see you in the air and in space next year! Best wishes and bottoms up!
Best Regards,
AeroGator

Great! Found a Gunfighter MCG-Pro available and ordered it on AliExpress!

Hopefully it gets shipped soon!

Can you find out if or when Ali or the NA stores will get the Gladiator Upgrade kit with the MCG Pro grip?

Not sure if they are still going ahead with the Gladiator Pro version/model. Saw a post on Reddit somewhere saying they haven't decided on this yet.

I think there are two different Gladiator Upgrade kit, one is coming, the other I'm not sure, would be surprised.

The one that is coming and that I think sphinx27 is talking about is this one :
https://vkbcontrollers.com/?product=gla ... g-bundle-2

Upgrade kit lite.

The other afaik is supposed to upgrade a Gladiator into a Gladiator PRO, so complete different gimbal. I haven't heard much about it.
VKB Devcie Config v0.91.26 - Firmware version: v1.994

It's the morning after January 7th and I still don't see anything in stock on both the NA site and Aliexpress. Is there any update as to when they will be back in stock?

Thanks!

Ok thanks. I see on the Europe page that the Gunfighter won't be released until February 25th, does that mean the US won't see any in stock until after that? If not, is there any day/week that we may see stock available again in the US?

The boat with our container will not reach Europe till F26. This has nothing to do with stocking for the US. We will get to stocking up the US dealership as soon as we're physically done with checking/testing/packing this European cargo. Not a long time.

Ahh ok. I just received a message that stock wouldn't be back until after the Chinese New Year (Feb 18th). I know it's difficult to give a definitive answer because shipping is out of your control, but do you believe it will be sooner than that?

Hello all dear keen pilots here around,

I just stumbled over this whole VKB-thing the last days and am almost done with research for what specifically I want to throw my money at.
That definitly brings me to you.

As for being horny AF for a combination of the Gladiator Pro Base combined with MCG Grip (cherrytopped with the Twist and Throttle when the times come), I am some kind afraid you (VKB) might be ditching the whole GladiatorPro-thang when I read the last couple of sides here in that thread. So please, please tell me that this is not gonna happen.

My dreamcombination sofar when I am all right informed about the possibilty is:

Gladiator Pro MKII Base
MCG Grip
(Twist-adapter)
(Throttle)

Any possible information warning me that this or that might not match or will be possible surely will ruin my day, but to be clear about that will definitly be appreciated.

Thanks in advance to whom ever might give me a hand on that..
