Is This the Best Budget Joystick? | Winwing Ursa Minor Joystick Review and Test

[@Funebresto]

Better get the fighter version, many more buttons available to control radios, autopilot, lights, menus, etc. It's also available for left hand if you prefer.

[@jejelaso6]

i can't wait for a full airbus throttle with the winwing quality

[@flightstreamer]

That’s definitely a possibility

[@notam.sky81]

great video!love it!it looks amazing and makes me want to update to pc to get one!the feeling must be incredible!thanks for sharing this experience Cap!and to grow our passion that unites all of us!!

[@flightstreamer]

Cheers!! More is coming! :)

[@Emzis71]

I have preordered the left version hope ill get it soon🙏

[@flightstreamer]

Awesome! You will love it!

[@chesterong1260]

Thank you for the amazing video! May i check what was your settings on fenix, SDS on or offed?

[@virtualunitedpilot]

Got the left one the other and it's amazing

[@taylorhamilton5521]

Great video! I might have missed it...but in the screws on the bottom or somewhere else on the joystick is the z-axis lockable? I have rudder pedals so I don't ever use the z axis on my Thrustmaster stick and like how it has a simple locking mechanism to avoid any inadvertent stick motion

[@flightstreamer]

yep, it is lockable (with the screw) and adjustable for range of motion.

[@vrj0]

Seems like there is a noticable input lag when you test it in the in the F/CTL page. Is it only in the ecam or is the stick input also input delayed in general? Thank you!

[@flightstreamer]

it’s in ECAM only. Input is instant

[@vrj0]

@ thank you that’s good news!

[@chernweimah9124]

Apparently the winwing took a long time to set up in MSFS, compared to the Thrustmaster which I have (basically plug and play). Would u happen to have a video regarding how to set up the winwing so it’s recognised by MS? Thanks so much for ur review, it’s very informative!

[@flightstreamer]

hmm it is recognized for me automatically. Are you using SimApp pro? All you need is to map the AP disconnect and buttons to your liking.

[@flightstreamer]

I could make it :)

[@matthewbranham-mdh-2870]

I'm new to this and just ordered the stick. Where do you get the software for the flight simulators?

[@flightstreamer]

Software for the stick itself? it’s called SimApp pro from their site. As per Flight Simulators, there are two major ones: Xplane and Microsoft Flight Simulator. The newest version 2024, is coming , so by the time you get the stick it will be released!

[@rsvette123]

Hi nice job is vibration supported in MSFS yet ? thanks much

[@flightstreamer]

it is partially supported by

[@rsvette123]

Thank you

[@EugeneKostiuk-w8g]

Everyone can make a choice between right hand one and a wrong one? 😁 Awesome review! This stick is definitely a game changer! Looking forward for more review when new winwing products come

[@flightstreamer]

Thanks Eugene!! haha yeah it took me 3 minutes to think which one I wanted 😂

[@le4fkicker]

i'm confused what to get, i guess the left one if i just want to fly airbus?

[@onixx-t6r]

Do you really feel the vibration and all the systems or it’s like the thrustmaster?

[@flightstreamer]

Not yet, it’s not fully supported in msfs

[@onixx-t6r]

@@flightstreamer okay thanks 😆

[@Azorean77]

@@flightstreameris it compatible now?

[@Cluelessseafishing]

I have a honeycomb yoke but it's just so clunky on the desk might get one of these

[@flightstreamer]

great idea! yeah, honeycomb is huge

[@samgt4]

Is the vibration implemented now?

[@flightstreamer]

I gotta test now

[@samgt4]

@ ok, let me know if it does :)

[@Gabriel-yw2op]

In my country, it's a bit more difficult and expensive (Almost the same price maybe) to get this joystick than the Thrustmaster TCA. Is the WinWIng still a better option, or should I buy the TCA?

[@flightstreamer]

I do not recommend TCA . Winwing is much better!

[@pianoguyswe]

The Thrustmaster is a 10 year old design and has fewer switches, buttons and sliders than the winwing option.

[@RafaelLiebhart]

Does it work with the Thrustmaster airbus Thrust lever?

[@flightstreamer]

ofcourse! these are completely independent

[@RafaelLiebhart]

@@flightstreamer Tysm for answering looking forward to buy it😆😁

[@deendrew36]

What’s the approximate price of this joystick? Looks like a good option.

[@flightstreamer]

$79.99 USD :)

[@AviationCentral224]

That’s cheaper than the thrustmaster TCA I think!

What type of monitor do you use for Microsoft Flight Simulator?

[@flightstreamer]

27” 1440p @ 120Hz

[@mikel5077]

Looks good, but I feel winwing missed the mark with not making this ambidexterous like thrustmaster airbus.. ... the winwing store/shipping experience needs to be worked on considering they ship in plain boxes and dont have to put a box inside a box.... I ordered the fcu listed as an available item from the US store last and it took 3 days to slap a label on a box which is literally ridiculous. Also they need to fix the fact that adding things to the cart is useless you basically need to order multiple items indiviidually, they need to offer upgraded shipping options at checkout or partner with someone like amazon or a few select retailers who ship much faster.I wouldnt mind paying a few dollars more if the shipping was a lot faster

[@matthewstephenson6310]

what sensitivity settings do you use with the Fenix? i cant seem to find a setting where it feels nice it feels too sensitive?!

[@flightstreamer]

hmm I will post my curves shortly to the community tab on this channel.

[@VinceChuaOfficial]

Nice review! Just a question though, if you have tried the real a320 sidestick. How is the stiffness compared to the real thing and thrustmaster? Haha

[@flightstreamer]

Now I did try the real a320 sidestick… to get that feel, you might need to spend 2k+ on a true replica controller with the same feel / “springback” travel. This one is actually quite nice for $79.99 :)

[@VinceChuaOfficial]

@@flightstreamer true hahaha! i dont rlly need the springback but i just want a rather stiff sidestick haha, is it stiffer than the thrustmaster?

Which addon for CYYZ please? I cant find proper one for MSFS!

[@littletweeter1327]

It’s a shame they copied the gimbal from VKB.. was gonna buy one but no way I can support that kind of actions

[@NigerianNinja-d6h]

That's a matter for VKB to resolve, not for us, the consumer. They're companies, not football teams, no need to go to bat for them.

i bought it 2 weeks ago order from taobao i am in hong kong, i hate the thrustmaster TCA stick, rudder axis is design flaw cant fly with it rubbish, winwing is hands down 10 times better in all aspect,. all problem gone, game changer

There are no Best Joysticks in Budget ones.... Pay the price and get a good one first time will for sure safe you money.... Talking out off exsperience :)

That’s a good one and it’s not cheap either. So yea: take the money and buy that one.

[@LaoxJet]

@@flightstreamer Thanks for the video! I already have my joystick and I'm configuring it now.. could you explain if you managed to get it to vibrate? I haven't been able to find how to do it, no matter how much I search. Thank you very much, I look forward to your response.

[@Warsheep2k6]

Winwing makes the excellent orion and the ursa minor is basically a Gladiator internal wise they cheaped out on the exterior material and on the baseplate also the sticks tube is a bit thinner get them on sale and you really cant do anything wrong they are sure as hell better then the equally priced t16000

[@philippevandamme260]

Hello, instead of presenting the stick (unpacking, connection and flight) that everyone knows how to do, you should have shown how to install it in Windows (update, different start-up menu in the application) key settings, etc... because there your video is useless except to please you

[@flightstreamer]

This video is meant to show it before anyone purchase it - it is a review, not a tutorial. For setup - you read the manual. It might be useless to you, but I wouldn’t speak on behalf of others.

[@flightstreamer]

If I get any more requests like this, I can definitely go through mapping it and etc, although it’s pretty straightforward and requires just slightly more IQ than 90 ;)
