I like the controller, but no way I'm buying this for 249,- For that money you can buy a serious joystick...

[@loofs3]

Yep is about $100 over price

[@RyanFireball]

It is now $199.99. I got a $50 refund.😀

[@Avantime]

It's $250 and made in America. In other words this is made for the Department of Defence for the battlefield drone operator, as well as other uses (e.g. mini sub).

[@BluGames]

Lol

[@trexx97]

I have an issue with the price point. I'm not saying it should be $60. I'm just saying $250 feels high.

[@JamesRyan728]

W name tho Yaw man

[@BryanDenham]

it looks like something i could see my self using but that price tag is way to high . if im spending $250 id just put a bit more with it and get a full HOTAS. that said i really like what they have done i think its an awesome controller . i used to play DCS with a Steam controller once you set up a ton of shift keys its doable , this would make it a lot easier than the steam controller if you have the option to change all the key bindings in the controller app. id pay $150 maybe up to $180, but $250 is way to much for a game controller.

[@therocinante3443]

I originally posted a negative commend due to the price. However you're right - For people on the go this is pretty great! I pictured myself on an airplane with my laptop while flying airplanes on my laptop and got a good chuckle. It's a goal now!

[@TJ.Turner]

I'm sorry but was that a USB Mini port in 2024?

[@Sithhy]

It's USB Type C but in a weirdly shaped hole

[@paulthurston2883]

I have a Velocity Flight Panel, loaded out with 8x Logitech FIP's, Honeycomb Alpha Yoke, Bravo Throttle, Logitech Radio panels. To be honest, it is a pain in the arse. Takes up heaps of room, I can't see my monitor properly as I have to sit so far back. If this goes wireless, I'll grab one and ditch all the home cockpit stuff.

[@Utube2Itube]

I definitely see the core customer being the hardcore simmer who wants to be able to play on the go while being on vacation and stuff. I would get it straight away if the price tag was dropped a bit to somewhere around $150 and if it had full Xbox support/licensing. I can see myself playing remotely on my iPad with this controller, streaming MSFS from my Xbox Series X.

[@Chris-eb7ry]

When’s the next stream? Been 10 days.

[@s7ai]

I welcome the idea in general, but man, this thing looks weird 🙈 Thanks for the review!

[@jnbennett6496]

wait for a new remake, not the prototype, and the price makes me lol

[@itamarmoura4080]

A idéia do controle é boa... porém está muito caro. Abraços do BRASIL

[@DeusLegendXBLN]

Interesting.... but.. your flight navigator can't approve of this price tho. 😳

[@vancevance6864]

$200 seems a bit excessive

[@MalShakur]

Sometimes I don't feel like hopping in my simpit and I'll grab the standard xbox controller and tool around VFR using the third person view while sitting on the couch. After much pattern practice, I can pretty much grease my landings using the standard xbox controller already. Aside from the sliding throttles, I'm not sure how this gamepad would add any more value.

[@iFlysimX]

No thank you, next :)

[@animaxima8302]

$250 is way too much for an Xbox controller - that doesn't even work on an Xbox

[@JugandoRD]

$249? I hope this was an early April fools joke. Ridiculous price for such product, with that money I can buy an xbox series X controller, a Logitech hotas (stick and throttle) and prob have money left to by the cheapest rudder pedal. That says a lot of about how bad this product will end up as far as sales is concern. This should have been priced at $99.99 max.

[@aquamich129]

I saw it at Flight sim expo and I 'm skeptical about the target audience. people without gear will sue a classic controller you can buy for 30 bucks. So what does this bring to your immersion at 250$? because you can get a good hotas at this price or even push the enveloppe and get a yoke for better immerssive experience. At first glanc the units they are selling look like home 3D printed stuff which is not really reasuring for the product life time.

[@VelocityFilmsCO]

250!???? It's cool, dont get me wrong, but 250 is INSANE for this. The build quality is nowhere near deserving of this price, at least from what I can tell in the video. I guess this is what happens when there are no competitors lol. Either way, like someone else mentioned, for this price, might as well get a proper joystick/throttle setup.

[@Sithhy]

I mean, it's a *very* niche item for a niche genre, so the price is kinda explainable... altough yeha, it's quite a lot still

[@ikennamadueke9131]

Why would they have put the trim wheel on the left side of the controller instead of the right? You are meant to be able to control the plane while trimming at the same time. Already over priced and a stupid design decision.

[@loofs3]

Damn $250....hell naw.....If your on the go, just get an XBox controller

[@TrendingHeadlinesTV]

Maybe $100 at the most.

[@IRUNU10X]

$250 Nope 😡

[@labr23]

👎👎👎👎👎👎

[@ikennamadueke9131]

Over over priced

[@LaurensPP]

For 250 you'd expect a top tier product. This isn't it.
