Yoke Pre-order questions

[Ron Attwood 3,465]

No, I'm waaay back in the queue.

I was thinking that Chris wants them out the door more than anyone.

Have a guess at who wants those yokes out of the door more than you....

If you hadn't just answered your own question, that was going to be my answer! But it's a close run thing between him and me (and you, no doubt!).😀

 

I've barely tried any of the landing challenges in MSFS because I don't want to develop bad habits from flying with a gamepad.

Can anyone who’s order date was Aug 19th or later share if their payment has been requested yet? I’m desperate for information!

Aug 17'th, no payment request yet...

I ordered at 10.02 on the day of release (17/08/20) and got my payment request on 31/10/20 and received the yoke a few days later...

I don't want to gloat but it is well worth the wait and is the best £450 I have ever spent on simming, I had a CH Yoke for years and it is not even in the same universe! It has totally transformed MFS, hand flying is a dream. Fingers crossed you all get your emails soon, you will be amazed.

I'm now saving up for Chris' upcoming Throttle Quadrant and after that, hopefully some pedals to replace my other CH gear...

Three days after preorders opening - Aug 20th, 10:24 uk time is the date on my order-accepted email. And still no payment-email in my inbox. Sadface.

Can anyone who’s order date was Aug 19th or later share if their payment has been requested yet? I’m desperate for information!

 

Hi.  My preorder email date and time was August 18, 2020 at 9:29 am.  However, I am here in the USA on the east coast, so not sure if that time is actually 2:29 pm UK time.

Either way, like so many others, I am patiently waiting for the payment email to be sent, starting the process of receiving Chris's Fulcrum Sim yoke.

While we all wait, and not knocking Chris or Fulcrum Sim, as it is not their pandemic.  We can pass the time playing the platitudes game of seeing how many expressions we can come up with regarding delayed gratification : )  I'll start:

Patience is a virtue.

Good things come to those who wait.

 

Who's next?

2020, what a year.  We deserve to have a little humor before we all go stark crazy Corona mad!  And congratulation England on the start of your COVID vaccine to your citizenry.  Cheers!

The U.K. is 5 hours ahead of US east coast so that time is correct.

Thanks! Its a day to celebrate here with the first vaccine given to a 90 year-old lady. Some good news for a change. Hope you can get it under control over there soon. 👍

What does that mean Ron? Don’t you watch the news? 🤔

I dare not say any more. Don't want to get cancelled.  🙂

  Sorry Ron, but it will be worth the wait, hopefully you'll receive it soon...

Y'know, I can't remember when I pre-ordered. I've looked at my account but there's no 'join date'. I do know I was fairly slow out of the blocks though. Perhaps Chris can let me know.
