Ordering to the UAE? And opinions on WinWing?

Hey Folks,

I'm looking to replace my Thrustmaster Airbus TCA since I'm having the famed rudder twitch issue. Instead of replacing the joystick I am thinking of getting a full set of Winwing gear, Throttle metal, Ursa Minor, MCDU and FCU+L.

First question, has anyone ordered to the UAE before? Their shipping costs are rather high around $140-150 If I can get it all in one order, however things on pre-order then cost double shipping so timing is defo important.

I'm also surprised by the comments in the sub, I thought it was currently the gold standard for Airbus kit, but I'm seeing quite a lot of disappointing comments.

Do I just replace my Thrustmaster Airbus TCA to tide me over?

WINCTRL Setup Tips #02: Panel Desk Mount 2 — One Mount, Endless Possibilities

Hey everyone!

For EP2 of WINCTRL Setup Tips, we're taking a closer look at the WINCTRL Panel Desk Mount 2 (MP2) and just how many ways you can use it.

One MP2 set includes everything you need to start building:

  • 1# Bracket
  • 2# Bracket
  • 3# Bracket
  • 4# Bracket
  • Accessory Kit
  • Tool Kit
  • Nano Adhesive

With these different brackets, MP2 is designed to give you plenty of flexibility when arranging your panels. Depending on what you're mounting, different bracket combinations can be used.

Full MP2 Set

>Each setup below requires #1 + #2 + #3 + #4

1. MCDU / PFP 3N / PFP7 / PFP4

2. 32 PAC Speed Brake + Flaps Panels

3. 32 RMP + 32 ACP + 32 TCAS (Note: 32 ACP is not released yet.)

These are separate mounting examples — each one uses a complete MP2 set.

2-Bracket Setup

>Requires #1 + #4 OR #2 + #3

  1. 32 ECAM

  2. 32 RMP

  3. 32 ACP

  4. 32 TCAS

https://preview.redd.it/3pszkcb42cjh1.jpg?width=4096&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=038ac476ab9780af57c71f939b2cabdda9d89dfa

Specific 2-Bracket Setup

>Requires #1 + #4

  1. 32 RMP + 32 TCAS

https://preview.redd.it/0es8bhgc2cjh1.png?width=411&format=png&auto=webp&s=e5008429130eda7806f8c4304c1389f070a9df02

  1. 32 ACP + 32 TCAS

https://preview.redd.it/zerkxhn92cjh1.png?width=444&format=png&auto=webp&s=776ab85d16292226dae4fbd73e0604dce43cf5e2

And these are just some of the possibilities.

The whole idea behind MP2 is flexibility: mount what you need, arrange it the way you want, and keep expanding as your setup grows.

We're only showing individual mounting examples here, not a complete desktop cockpit. You can find more ideas in the manuals.

Of course, you can always keep adding panels...

And keep extending...

And keep extending...

until it looks like a 10-meter-long control panel. 😂

Just kidding! Have fun and happy flying!

Need help with MFD backlight sync

The title mainly explains it all. Ive been trying to sync the backlighting in my MFD’s with the F18. I’ve repaired the lua, I’m signed in, it’s running in the background, it’s set to sync to dcs. I have no clue why it’s not working/what I’m doing wrong. It’s not that big of a deal. It’s mainly just annoying that it doesn’t work. Any help would be appreciated. :)
