Hi. This is really nice; especially for the price point. I've been flight simming since 1986 starting with FS II and have to say that this is the best value for buck on any flight sim hardware I've ever seen.
Oh 100%! it is amazing that it will be a wakeup call for many others to bring us better products. It was interesting to see how far we advanced in Flight Sim Expo. Community is growing more than ever!
Awesome video Captain! 👏🏻👏🏻 One question- at the expo, what is the table mounting or the cockpit stand where the FCU is mounted ? Thanks in advance! ✈️
Thanks so much! :) Appreciate the question: I actually got curious as well, so I asked Winwing folks… apparently this is custom made, for FSExpo. I told them to consider selling it. I think I will also need one rail for my desk.
I just got mine a few days ago...Most impressed with it and Winwing a company I did not know.. I think its such a shame they did not make the unit able to fit a Honeycomb Alpha/Bravo or a Logitech unit.. Perhaps its something they should consider doing a add on mounting case? If I knew how to do 3d printing I am sure it would sell if reasonably priced? I was interested in how they mounted the combined unit for the Expo Demo... Great video thank you.
Awesome! Yeah, at the Expo they used a custom-built frame (with specific rails), which was actually quite nice! For now I've used their stickers, mounting on the table, but I might get an interchangeable rail to switch them for Boeing MCP once it comes out.
You’d be surprise of how cheap these are to make… it’s sad we have gotten use to really high prices, then when something that’s less comes around we get a bit apprehensive, when the reality is. The only reason these were so expensive to begin with is because the lack of competition and not because the products are hard or expensive to make, but then the heaven sent winwing to us
I always thought this too, I mean it’s a button box essentially but mass production capabilities help keeping the price down. Still hoping for a full overhead panel but commercially it doesn’t seem likely.
Hello, thank you for the detailed review. My question is, can it work autonomously (plug and play) with any flight stick or should it be connected to another product of winwimg?
Great question! EFIS unit requires FCU, but doesn’t require any other winwing products. I personally use TM stick most of the time anyway. You can also configure FCU to be used with PMDG 777/737 if you want, via mobiflight config.
will the knobs/button/display map/or will it work with other aircraft as well? ie for 737 or generic HDG/ALT/SPD/VSPD knobs on other aircraft at least?
These products look good and affordable. Once msfs2024 is out I will start simming again after 20+ years. I will need a Boeing and a Airbus setup, I can hardly wait.
i have mine on pre order i cannot wait to take delivery, i will alos be purchasing the rest of the A320 items :), just out of interest i dont suppose you know what frame the were using to mount these items as i am looking to build a little bit of a sim rig
Fantastic! Hope you enjoyed the review. Great question, I’m actually was wondering the same, asked winwing, and they said that it is what they built themselves specifically for the show. I’d get it if they were to sell it.
It happend to me, first 6 june , then 17 june , but after they wrote 45 days Winwing sent it to me last week so i did not wait for 45 days just about 5 days, it is a great piece of hardware and you can use it with many planes.
100%! A disruptor indeed, and making flight simulation more accessible. I will review their budget airbus flightstick next - and wow , for the $$ it is a game changer. TM better take notes.. They did have a good run with Warthog series, but their new base is not great at all..
I’m guessing volume. I own the cockpit sim fms for the 737 and the WeFly mcdu for the a320….paid approx $700 for each of them. Winwing introduces the same hardware for $150? It seems like fantasyland….unless they can hit economies of scale. But can u do that within our hobby? It’s not a big deal market to begin with. So who knows?
@@zk9058 I see your point hehehe it really does seems like they're using some sort of sorcery to reach this king of price but hey... Who am I to complain if it works fine on the long run
Great comparaison my dude! 🐸
Winwing hardware is super promising for the years to come 🔥
Must have for home cockpit! Thanks for such a detailed review!
Thanks Eugene! More is coming :)
Thanks for the review man, now I will buy it with absolutely confidence 💪🏽
Fantastic! I’m glad that you found it useful! :)

Great review and comparison🛫✈️
Awesome! Glad you liked! More is coming!
Super impressive! Great review 👏🏻very well done.
Thanks Micah! 😀
Thank you for showing us the upcoming winwing products. Hopefully we can preorder it soon.
You can order FCU now and EFIS/MCDU , as well as 737 MCP will be available to pre-order soon
@@flightstreamer As said above wish, WinWing or somebody they would do a mounting case for Honeycomb or Logitech units.
@@flightstreamer i cant see the efis/mcdu for pre order?
Great vid! Thank you! Deffo on my list of things to buy!

Can't wait to receive my FCU. Still awaiting it. Nice video cap.
Oh you will love it! Makes complex Vatsim approaches so much better
Still awaiting it? Is that even a sentence?
Yes, it is. Awaiting means to wait for something. Gather you did English?

100% agreed! Winwing coming to the hobby is a revolutionary game changer!
Like I needed you to tell me how the market works.
@@Zakk900Lmaoo. He right though a lot of other people don’t realize this
I always thought this too, I mean it’s a button box essentially but mass production capabilities help keeping the price down. Still hoping for a full overhead panel but commercially it doesn’t seem likely.
Just received mine today, it came with the Expedite button already installed in it rather than the blue button
yeah this was a pre-prod version. I am getting the exped kit as well

@@flightstreamer thanks for the quick response. You just saved me some money 😜
Any Idea when they will release the Left and right EFIS controllers ?
October 8. And review is coming :)
@@flightstreamer that's good to hear thanks!!
I have signed up for the preorder, looking forward for it. Im buing the Fenix A320 later today. Have you tried it on other aircrafts than the A320?
That’s awesome! Yep, it works well with default A320 including neo and A32NX. Any other planes like 777/737 can be achieved with MobiFlight config
Still waiting for WinWing to have full software for X-Plane Tollis. They had projected it would be out in June...
their software for MSFS is soo good. They will release it for sure!
♥️just super quality wingwing
I gotta admit, Winwing - stars of Flight Sim Expo 2024
Very nice review
I'd like to know how you buy one, I've been on back order forever
hmm.. 🤔 FCU? when did you order?
Looks very well done cant wait for there MCDU And FMC.
Likewise!!! 😃
cool how did u get it shiped to u
is the frame already available?
will the knobs/button/display map/or will it work with other aircraft as well? ie for 737 or generic HDG/ALT/SPD/VSPD knobs on other aircraft at least?
I didn’t map it to other types yet, but I assume it is possible
These products look good and affordable. Once msfs2024 is out I will start simming again after 20+ years. I will need a Boeing and a Airbus setup, I can hardly wait.
I have the Logitech Flight Multi Panel, and am thinking to replace it with this WinWing FCU. Is it worth replacing?
100% Logitech multipanel is very bad!
Guys when will the 737 variant be available?
No word on that yet, EFIS is coming Oct 8. I will have the video by then!
@@flightstreamer thanks!
@@flightstreamer please let me know here when you got more info about the mcp
Do u know when Winwing will release their EFIS, as it will be logical to hv both FCU and EFIS in the same brand to avoid and communication problem😊
btw, thumbs up! very condense, informative and great vid indeed.
thanks so much for the feedback! :)
I was just wondering if this unit is compatible with Thrustmaster Airbus edition joy stick and throttles quadrant ?
yep! it is, as it is completely independent
@@flightstreamer cool , I will get it than…

Pre-ordered 3 months ago. Delivery's being delayed repeatedly: First 6 june , then 17 june . Now it's > 45 days. ☹
oh no… I hope you get it soon!!
It happend to me, first 6 june , then 17 june , but after they wrote 45 days Winwing sent it to me last week so i did not wait for 45 days just about 5 days, it is a great piece of hardware and you can use it with many planes.
Hello. Could you count how many clicks every FCU knob has (1 turn)? Should be 32 clicks
hmm 🤔 will do!
@@flightstreamer ?
20 clicks on Winwing FCU and 32 clicks on miniFCU
@@flightstreamer Thank you.
When showing sounds, check music off
noted
This all feels very costly for me but I want this thing so bad the FCU is so real 😍
it's actually VERY cheap, comparing to others. You can buy it now for $99.95 USD from their site.
What kind of frame is used at the expo?
I asked Winwing, they said that it was custom made for the Expo
@@flightstreamer oh nice! Thanks for getting back to me!
I’ve got 8000 hours plus on airbus and that looks amazing. I’m even thinking of getting one for my souvenir cabinet with all my memorabilia. Wow!
You've got to be fucking kidding me. What a douche bag
Did you tried the MCDU? How does it feels? It seems that the keys are rubber right?
MCDU feels nice! But yep, keys are rubber, unlike the real aircraft.
@@flightstreamer Maybe is not a big deal being rubber
Is that thing will work on msfs 24 ?
yep! because it’s the same SDK calls are used. Winwing updates SimAppPro constantly
Does this only work on the Fenix or does it work on the FBW?
Works with all Airbus variants: inibuilds, default asobo, a32nx and fenix
@@flightstreamer thanks for the quick response, mine will be here later this week and I’m so excited! ❤️
why it doesnt have an expedite button
It is interchangeable with LOC button
ciao, quando io entro nel gioco le luci dei tasti li trovo già accesi, come è possibile avere tutto in cool and dark ?
when it is cold and dark, FCU lights will be off!
it is just wow!!i mean its amazing i would love to have it!!flight experience is going up 10000% grat video Cap!!
Oh yes!! 😎 so much more efficient
did you _buy_ both?
Winwing FCU - got from Winwing for the review. MiniFCU - bought as an early backer.
Winwing FCU is great for its price
100% :)
I have the Windwing and it works periodically, at best. You get what you pay for...
hmm so strange.. mine works very well!
its so precious , so much so we have to touch it with glove
100% 😂 white glove unboxing - my thing haha
is it compatible with XBOX flight sim ?
great question.. I doubt it, but I will ask.
thank you
I don't understand how can these people make a profit. Awesome price tag for value. Really disruptive.

@@flightstreamerWould you recommend the winwing flightsick more? Like is it worth waiting 30days ?
Sweet
Thanks Ben!
Holy cow dude - What were you smoking when deciding on your music 🔬.
you are the only one saying that. what’s the problem with the music?
I have had on pre order nothing from WinWing for nearly 6 months. Be dead by the I get it.
hmm 🤔 did you try contacting them?
Hello
The best is the skalarki.
well.. for the price that is. Skalarki is pro-grade
Yeah if you could get one haha
You can! Just have to wait a bit 😀 they will send!
The trance dj likes that comment
Where is the fucking expedite button?
calm down there.. it’s a pre-production unit. New ones come with expedited button
Looks and feels supercheap compared to Quickmade which is of course much more expansive.
You just can’t beat the price.. For the price it is simply the BEST and does the job very well.
What a cheap comment. What is expansive? You mean expensive?! Ok. Bye, troll.
In your case, u were on FATsim.
huh?
