Defender Cobra M5 Upgrades

Hi.

In a reply to an email I sent couple of months ago, I was told that you would have the upgrade package to the Defender Cobra M5 available in small quantities on the store and that I should subscribe to the newsletter to know when they are available.
Since then I didn't saw any information regarding the upgrade.

Can you tell me when will it be available and if I can order it from the site ?

Thanks.

Same! Can we expect some M5 Cobra upgrade kits? I really like the stick but the crappy twist has to go :roll:

I'm not holding out much hope for upgrades, namely the njoy32 controller and MARS twist, but the worst you can get for asking is no reply.

In the meantime I'm looking through the DIY options Sokol1 posted for me in viewtopic.php?f=28&t=2749#p27515 ... but I'd much rather have the VKB solution.

Hello guys,

We plan to offer some upgrade kits for Defender as soon as we have a new site up and running. However, it will not be any twist upgrades available.

That's excellent news, many thanks for the update.

It is a shame about the MARs twist, but any improvement would be welcome, particularly the controller.

Any news on those Cobra M5 upgrades?

All the GF Mk2 / MCG stock has sold out faster than concert tickets, so it may be a while for any solution to show up.

Hello Juri,
We are in the process of updating the website and upgrade kits are in the list. It is planned to be finished some time next week. So, the upgrade kits as well as some spare parts for Defender Cobra M5 will be offered.

Good news, thanks Eduard.

Although my GF2 MCG has just arrived today (w00t!), I'm still looking to improve my Cobra M5 for casual use.

Is there any more info on the plan for M5 Cobra upgrades?

Mine is still being pressed into service for the use of a twist axis.
