Europe Customers: Who wants a VKB Gunfighter?

[messiah]

If it does not effect precision, I'm going with the Gladiator Pro mk2 honestly, don't think I can wait another month for the gunfighter.
Been waiting since the first gladiator pro mk1 batch was sold out.

As I understand it, it should affect precision, durability and configurability.

[messiah]

Guess i'll wait another month then.. very frustrating this is indeed.. \
if you have been waiting for over a year for a gladiator pro to be in stock in EU, I guess a month Is not far away...
was so tempted to buy the Gladiator Pro mk2 next week , for once they are in stock in EU Store..

[kosta]

It was also my intention to go for the Gladiator, but decided to wait, even if my MS FF2 is already at the end of the long 16 years or so. I think I got it in 2001 if I am not mistaken.

The gimbals of the gladiator MKii and the Gunfighter are exactly the same, the only difference are the new friction system that is only on the gunfighter and the base case that is different simple & metal compared to in plastic with buttons.

[kosta]

I thought there is a difference in gimbals, precisely because of the friction system.
Also Gladiator mk.2 has metal plate, albeit smaller. I don't care about the buttons on the base, but I might care about the twist upgrade that will only be available for the Gunfighter. I would welcome a better grip though, metal and with more buttons (hint hint WH).

Any words of gunfighter coming in eu?

I read that there were delays of two weeks because the company making the PCBs had issues. http://vkbcontrollers.com/?p=3222

We never hear anything in Europe

Thanks!
I guess i'll have to wait a bit longer.

Hello guys,

Gladiator Mk.II is now available for ordering and we offer 10% discount for early customers. Indeed, we are slow on the EU market but we compensate it with much better price than expected. It took us about 6 weeks longer but I hope that the price difference worth it.

I would estimate to have Gunfighter for EU available in June. But this is just an estimation. It is a new product and some delays may occur.

Please, bear in mind that orders for North American and Russian market are shipped directly from HQ warehouse which is not possible for EU market due to strict tax system. That's why we always start selling in EU few weeks later.

Best regards,
Eduard

Thanks for the update. Sad that we wait longer, but it is nice not to be tapping my fingers, wondering, and checking this every day for news

Will the Gunfighter pro and Gunfighter both be available at the same time?

[Andy]

I see USA orders start shipping today (25/04/2017)

Late for me to participate BUT: Last week was the first time to look into the shop and find a nice stick available, so got me the G-Pro II and the pedals for now, but I absolutely will Shell out for a dual stick Gunfighter Setup once the fighter and kosmosima grips are available.

My spaceships demand it.

[graysson]

Im interested too in a Gunfighter base only or base only + Warthog adapter depending on how long it takes for the MCG Pro/ Kosmosima grip to come out in Europe. With both grips out i will most like go for 2 Gunfighter bases only, Kosmosima left hand + MCG Pro together with the T-rudder pedals.

i know i'm boring but; any news about Gunfighter arrival in EU?
