Interesting, the Saitek store shows them out of stock everywhere but their store in Germany and it only have two units remaining.

 

Shipping must be slow from China these days. :-)

Interesting. No Windows 10 drivers yet has made me wonder if the issues were hardware related! That could require a redesign........... Saitek was aware of issues in Windows 10 builds at least as early as March 2015 with some of their products and no drivers yet? Its now August!

 

Amazon here in the USA is also out of stock.

one alternative: FSX Throttle

 

That looks impressive.  You should post that to the Bargain Hunters forum.

I took just the bottom off (4 screws) then blasted with the straw attached where the levers pivoted and then let it dry for half an hour . There are screws right inside very difficult to reach to take each lever out but that was very difficult so didn't bother. . Realised after I could have blasted without taking the bottom off using the straw that comes with it.!! Little risk of damaging taking the bottom off and you will probably get a better clean though, has worked for me

Cheers

Steve,

 

Is the price listed anywhere?  I can't find the product on eB

Hidden under contact us is.. "You can contact us for pricing and other questions by submitting the contact form below."

 

This of course can only mean one thing :Cuppa: :smile:

The price with its various options is listed at the bottom of the page. 

The unit is listed on Ebay only when we have extra quadrants available, and for those folks who feel more comfortable buying through Ebay, especially International customers. tony
