The manufacturer WINWING, responsible for a variety of airliner controls, space-sim controls and mil-sim controls, has announced new rudder pedals, yokes, comm panels and even a transponder panel.
The presenter, Tony, a consultant for WINWING, has started the presentation by introducing the company. However, they went straight to announcing new things for flight simulator users to enjoy in the near future. As usual, the WINWING team is bringing their affordable cockpit parts even further to reality, with their new comm panels – the ATC 32, ACP 32 and RMP 32. These three are individually representing the radio panel of the Airbus A320 series, the comm panel of the A320 series and the TCAS panel of the A320 series.
These three products will be 1:1, as the team aims to bring true-to-scale products. Just as with the MCDU, which we have reviewed. The price of the radio panel is set at $77.50, the comm panel is going to cost $133.85, and lastly, the transponder is going to sell for the same price as the radio panel.
The next panel the team showed is the landing gear and autobrake panel of the Airbus A320, codenamed “AGP 32”. It is a full-structural design, with a metal gear lever, available in two versions, either in full, 1:1 scale, or in a compact form factor. As with any of the WINWING’s hardware, it will be plug-and-play via the SimAppPro software. The price of this panel will be set at $133.85.
The next panel the team has showcased is the ECAM of the Airbus A320. It will include the same features as the previous panels, such as full-structure moulded design, all-scenario mounting solution and conformal extension design. Its price is set at $77.50.
Moving to flight controls, and yet still staying with Airbus-like peripherals, the WINWING team has announced the NWS L 32, which is the left nosewheel steering knob of the A320. It will be priced at $82.30.
Airbus-like rudder pedals were announced, too. This follows up on the WINWING Orion announcement that happened at FSWeekend in Lelystad earlier this year. This is the civilian aviation version of it. This version is going to be slightly different from the combat version, reflecting realistic travel dimensions of airliners. It will cost $328.69. Force-feedback versions will also be available, with two different torque settings. The cheaper one, and weaker one, is going to cost $499.95, and the one with stronger torque is going to cost $599.95. Combat versions will also be available.
Boeing Yokes
As announced earlier during FSWeekend, WINWING will also be bringing realistic Boeing yokes to the market. These will also have force feedback, as they are from the Cyber Taurus range of products. It will also be plug-and-play via the SimAppPro program. The price is still to be announced.
Partnership with DCS
Starting off the combat spectrum of the announcement, there will be new MIG-29 grips available. It’s a seamless integration, created in collaboration with Eagle Dynamics. These grips will be made of metal, and as they are part of the WINWING’s ecosystem, it will also be compatible with other aircraft and simulators. These grips are priced at $222.43.
