- The last 24hrs have been really exciting if you're a virtual Airbus pilot. There have been no less that 6 new pieces of hardware announced by 3 different manufacturers giving us the consumer, a huge choice of option when it comes to building our own home cockpit around our desktop. But, which one will you go for?

I have all the hardware/software. Now if I only could find an Airbus fuselage (and passengers crazy enough to fly with me) you’ll see me in the skies soon 😂
drink cart be nice,get the wify to bring me a beer
I think we need the competition in flighsim because hardware prices are very very high. If with Winwing FCU we can get the same quality with the mini FCU at half the price it will be great news. I hope they can also build other components at reasonable prices because otherwise flightsim hardware is almost inaccessible to many of us.
8:07 most exciting part of the video
Rather random! Will need to edit that out 🤣
@@Easyjetsimpilot You can cut off the end after posting the video via CZcams Studio.
Just preordered the Winwing FCU.
I'm looking at getting the Radio Management Panel eventually. The amount of 'heads-down' spent tuning the radios while on VATSIM can really be problematic. This will solve all of that. 😁
I'm from Australia, what I love about wining is you can pre order mini FCU from their Australian distributor..
I pre-ordered the Winwing FCU, can't wait for it!
mini rmp will be a gamechanger
Awesome ! Order placed :) Thx mate !
Ive built my own a320 inspired cockpit, using predominantly stream deck devices laid out in a manner to mimic the appropriate location and function. Also allowed me to easily transition to various other aircraft.
And Stream Deck + is awesome for radio/com use
I've pre-ordered the winwing so looking forward to your reviews on it!
Love the MiniFCU and will definitely purchase additional modules. I hope they will come soon.
Definitely getting all those mini cockpit additions. They've been fantastic and the minifcu is awesome. Willing to buy the wingwing too. Will wait and see reviews
I've had the minifcu for less than a month. I must say I absolutely love it, I will definitely be getting the miniEFIS and maybe some other things from them, we'll see.
I can’t wait for your review of this.
It'll be interesting to watch a review of the Winwing add on.
I preordered the WinWing. Can't wait for it to ship!
yes I`m excited! :-) I will have a look on it
Just pre-ordered the WinWing FCU :) can´t wait!!!
Real size, real size, real size!!!
Already have the miniFCU and love it. will probably add the mini RMP and EFIS
Ive Pre ordered the winwingFCU, cant wait i hope ive got the space for the whole glare shield combo, if not i will be moving to the summerhouse, look forward to your review of this soon.
Great to hear. I just hope that those pieces will work with other planes as well - I sometimes like to switch to the ATR for example and it would be great if the FCU could also be used to control the AP there - of course there will be limitations, as the APs work quite different, but things like adjusting Altitude or so should still work
This 1:1 FCU and future mods will be great with VR! All you need to do is put them in the right place and immersion will be amazing!
Mini Cockpit for me ! The whole lot 😂👍🙏🏻❤️👊👨✈️✈️
I would be interested to know if Thrustmaster are planning FCU et al products. It would be good to have this inline with their throttle and sidestick. However, I have my eye on the WinWing product.
packs and lights is a game changer
Made my preorder last night! Super excited for this one
my mini fcu should be shipped next week and will probably go for ecam efis as well
Owner of the MiniFCU but I'm not 100% happy with the quality. It looks perfect but feels fragile. I just pre-ordered the Winwing FCU. Let's see which one I'm gonna sell soon ;)
Obviously the 1:1 is the most attractive. So long as there are no issues.
currently waiting for my mini FCU to be delivered, cant wait. im excited for the mini efis and the mini rmp, the later is going to be a game changer flying on vatsim. as for the other 2 im pretty meh, might get the mini overhead as it would be nice to have things like lights on hand when taxing so you can keep your eyes on the road when lining up on a runway etc.
You need to splice off 8:09 onwards of the black screen my friend. I've heard many good things about WinWing kit.
really nice. maybe i should get one
Have pre ordered after seeing this great video. I just wondered if you might run through software and how to mount it as I am not sure if you have to buy brackets, or can it fit in a old Logitech box or onto an Alpha or Bravo? I think the software for Fenix A320 is available April but no idea how long production takes.
For me Gavin price and value will be my prime movers. Haven`t bought yet but will with the help of your video's will not be long.
I have a mini fcu on order. I would definitely buy additional units if the fcu lives up to its hype.
Already pre ordered the wingwin.
AWESOME
wonderful
I own a miniFCU, and competition is a good thing. I'll maybe extend to more modules, or switch to wingwing depending of the quality and price of the bundle
i do have the minifcu and I am sure if minicockpit will sell these additional units, i will buy them. For me it increases the immersion even now with the fcu only
I would love the MiniFCU…. If only they were available!
Thank god for that RPM. Im done with diling in a dozen different frequencies all the time.
I already put in my preorder for winwing FCU. I am just happy its not a rip off like the mini FCU.
i have the mini fcu , streamdeck i use for overhead and ecam so the mini efis is my next buy
I really like the miniFCU and axious for them to release the rest of the boxes sometime (provided I can find the room on my ever-shrinking desk.😀).
As for the miniFCU, as you mentioned yesterday, now it does work with the FENIX, as well as the FBW A320 and Headwind A330. I am hoping they can get the driver updated to also handle my LVFR/Horizon A319 and A321. I don't expect it would ever be workable with the iniBuilds A300, though.
just Got mail from minicockpit. A300 is on to-do list after inibuild 320.
@@Morst434 Great to hear! Thanks for sharing.
I want to see it in person first. They will be in Vegas for the big show.
I think i will go for the wing wing fcu.
Competition is great for us the consumers! Anyway, I've been very happy with the miniFCU and even more so with the latest firmware update to use seamlessly with the Fenix. In particular, I am very excited to add the miniEFIS when it is available. That's all I require as I use the overhead panel in the sim and for radios I use the Saitek.
Is the winwing compatable with the fenix
My MiniFCU should also be shipped anytime now, I did look on the WinWing website and their FCU is available for pre-order at $149 CDN, I paid just over $300 for the MiniFCU !! If the quality turns out to be as good I'll be bummed at that price. Guess we'll wait and see
Gav, can't wait for the rest of the panels from Minicockpit, won't be daft enough to wait until I have to pay the normal price. As soon as they are launched, I'm all over them.
Love flying Airbus but love flying Boeing as well. Do these units work across different types of planes? Might need some customization but is that possible?
WinWing it's the way... I've been watching few reviews and in my opinion, their price/quality ratio is a no brainer. MiniFCU doesn't stand a chance.
Other thing is the fact that I keep seeing everywhere people mentioning MiniFCU size as a plus !!! It is obvious that MiniFCU occupies more desk space.
When is the expetected delivery date wingwing fcu?
Provided the quality is good, Winwing have blown Minifcu out of water in terms of value. They have a known track record, and £133 for a full size FCU (£103 early bird pre order currently available) is a cracking price!! I was teetering on the edge of buying mini but I’m so glad I waited. For the same price as mini FCU I’ll most likely get two components of the glare shield (assuming pricing is similar and hoping they might offer an early bird price again) from winwing.
Not saying it’s been a cash grab from minifcu, but winwing are able to produce at quantity which will bring it to the masses at more competitive pricing.
Whichever way people choose to vote with their wallets, it’s a great time for flight sim having more options is really good for development of products!
I hope winwing also come out with some other panels, the mini cockpit panels look awesome but I’m scared of the price!😅
Well, Im actually a little pissed right now. I did order a MiniFCU back in January. I am awaiting delivery, expected to arrive in the next couple weeks. Last night, I preordered the WinWing FCU as well because I really want the full size version and WinWing already has an established reputation for having quality products. I'm reading of many MiniFCU units with problems like knobs falling off and poor soldering, Luckily, WinWing isnt asking to be paid up front so hopefully, I will see a review from you before I have to pay for it.
I built myself an Overhead lighting panel for around £20.00
using Mobiflight, so much easier than mousing switches
every time before landing when i disconnect the automatic pilot, i have a message in red below the FOB information, how to avoid that ?
24hrs after mobiflight released a mini overhead on their site too
Very good news. I own now the mini FCU and is fantastic. Can you tell me how to update it to see all the numbers when I fly the Fenix? Thanks a lot.
See the video released yesterday on the channel for this 👍
Download the driver again. You'll get the latest which works for the FENIX. I removed the previous one (just in case), but you may not need to do that.
@@Easyjetsimpilot Thanks a lot. I appreciate your quick answer. Best regards
I'm building VR cockpits, and could not match this price if I built it myself...just pre-ordered 🙂
I ordered the Winwing FCU 2 months ago and still no payment e-mail so I guess the demand was really high 😂
I wish the mini fcu was lower in price. If u missed the kickstarter its quite expensive
I have the Minifcu and absolutely love it. However it is very pricey, especially when you add import tax of £51 to the purchase price. I will think long and hard about any additions.
Talk about timing from WinWing...
I think the proposed miniOVHD is a big mistake. It'd have to be *really* dirt cheap for me to even consider it.
So he price is just for the FCU? Some people were saying that for that price it included both evils 1 & 2 as well. Can anyone confirm this?
It's $129 all in for the FCU 1.1, only. Friend just ordered.
Win Win..Winwing FCU For me-
I'm just worried about how many USB ports I'll need!
Very interested, but does anyone know why there is no Exped button and if there will be the option of adding it at any stage?
I’m not sure. Maybe it is a button that you can assign to something else because the EXPEDITE button is not often used
@@OrganAviator It turns out some airlines do not include the EXPED button on their A302's due to potential safety issues related to a higher rate of climb or descent. Personally, I would prefer it to be included however, as you said, it does provide the option of assigning it to something else.
@@russellfredric2509 yeah, I guess they’ve just got to find a solution that works best for most people.
Anybody have any experience of Winwings other hardware? I'd like to be sure before I preorder
I own the top gun mip and i can say it is a great bit of kit.
Video goes black from @8:09 for me.
Mini FCU lost me at first because not compatible with all Airbus. I chose Winwing FCU which is compatible (and cheaper) with all Airbus on day 1.
Have you or anyone tried anything from Java simulations?
Now to hide the cost of these add-ons from the Mrs!!
I missed the minifcu pre order so I’ve preordered the winwing one. Definitely looking forward to it considering the price and possible future of the rest of the glare shield.
I've got a mini fcu coming and I'm pretty sure I'm going to put it up on ebay. My saitek AP panel does the same job AND it works with stock planes.
Did you say the win wing is 100lbs UK?
I ordered!!
I’ve ordered the winwing. The mounting looks better conceived, it’s not as deep, their products are usually superb and minifcu are taking the piss with their pricing in my opinion.
While all this FCU stuff is great, can we talk about how he just left a 2 minute long black screen in the recording LMAO
I just preordred the winwing fcu
This was reviewed and shown at German expo the other week very cheap construction guys it does look the part but the build quality is poor compared to mini fcu and rotary clicks no where're near as precise obviously shown in the price point it sells at but it does what it says
Made preorder now! Cheap 99 euro
They are barely managing to ship the Mini FCU, how are they supposed to manage manufacturing, distribution etc. without spending months or even years? I will most likely buy a FCU from Winwing as they have more experience in the field.
WinWing for the win. Much better!
As a mostly boeing pilot i want a mini cocpit to 😔😔 But i am happy (read. envious) for Airbus pilots
I wouldn't be surprised if some tech savvy people are figuring out workarounds for Boeing planes.
