Thanks for the heads up..ordered..
Now to save for the grip lol
Anyone considering the VKB I would highly recommend them..
The Gladiator 2 is available and at $100 it is the best bang for buck out there in the joystick world (imo)..top stick for a reasonable price..amazing sensitivity and precision. New age in tech..if you want a top stick but don't want to go all out for hundreds of dollars..this is the one.

Cheers flippz for heads up.

no problem Jimmy,
and on top of what jimmy says, they are adjustable (springs) for each persons preference.  great customer support (unlike oculus).

I'd buy the rudder pedals if they weren't russian.

Too bad there's no American companies making gear like this.

Iracing has a bunch of home and or small companies making pedals and other accessories for car racing simulation.  The market for car and racing simulation is huge as compared to flying simulation best I can tell.

This guy makes car pedals in batches as an example.  Not sure where he is located.

I just bought a new X56 3 weeks ago, its dead already. Very disappointed, waiting to see if newegg will replace it. Would love to get the VKB but don't have the funds.

As if the general way priciness wasn't enough, availability is an issue too. I read on a forum yesterday one of the vkb admins were saying there are further delays with their stuff while they move to a bigger factory. It's a good problem to have I guess. Glad I got my stuff when I did!

On the IL-2 forum. UIV was saying:

"Plus, production is now almost stopped. To accelerate the production of products, we expand production. Now the company is moving to a bigger place."


So.....in another two weeks or so stuff will be available! Hehe
