Yes you can transfer over all of your settings by renaming the ini fiie from 4 to 5 (per a post by Pete).  No word on discounts or price for WideFS.  BTW, If I am Pete I would charge full price, the guy is constantly updating this thing and has been doing so for a decade.  We are very lucky he updated for this version and if he gets a nice pay day out of it then good for him.

The store page is most likely a placeholder in preparation for the Tuesday Madness Sale. aka P3Dv4 blastoff!

+1 Agree that Mr. Dowson deserves a good payday for his efforts.

Agreed, Although I was the one who brought it up, I too would not for a second begrudge Pete the full price and more The more money Pete gets the more vacations he'll take and the more V4 updates we'll get

Does FSUIPC5 works with WideFS7 ?

No clue, I asked this question on the fsuipc forums.

I wonder is there a discount for those of us who already purchased FSUIPC4?

Why not just pay the man for his work?

I would rather ask first: do we really need it?.

I use it mostly for custom controls/calibration of my yoke, throttle and rudder, some custom buttons on the same as well as a few LUA programs I run. I think some addons like LINDA (which I also use) may require the paid version.  Remember the free version is still available for free if you have dependent addons like aircraft.

Pete just commented on FSUIPC forums: 

"Is it listed already? Surely not. It isn't ready yet! Do you have a link?

Yes, I agree, but I'd rather expect less aircraft to be dependant of FSUIPC in the upcoming future. I have my controls setup using their own proprietary sofware (in my case TARGET) or even directly in the simulators.

Still using a LUA script for VAS alarms (under 500 MB available) with FSUIPC, but with the advent of P3Dv4 I don't see any need to continue using it.

Sounds like you don't need it then.

Not having FSUIPC v5 for P3D v4 was a serious concern brought up last week and it is great to see that this will be available for this new platform. I truly hope that this will be "the" platform for most FSX/P3D users so third party developers can start to create v4-only products that can utilize the new capabilities offered within P3D v4. 

I always thought FSUIPC was just an alternative to simconnect anyway? 

I use FSUIPC to assign profile for each aircraft I fly (A320,737,777,747, PA44...). By using the same yoke, same joystick, same rudder pedal, same quadrant I can use multiple profiles which is very handy.

I also use it to optimize AI traffic, must have!

Those features are not in the free version am I correct? I have never used the free version so I'm not sure what it brings.
