February 3, 20251 yr Author Yes, I am sure, at least for here in Israel. I ordered the Orion Metal Flight Rudder Pedals from Winwing (China) in October. I was delighted not to pay anything upon receipt of the package but I quickly changed my mind around mid-December when I received a letter from UPS asking for customs fees and VAT. I guess it's the same with FedEx. 🥴 - PC Hardware: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D // Asus ROG Crosshair X870E HERO // 2x32Gb Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5 6000MT/s CL30 // ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4090 OC Edition // 4Tb Corsair NVMe M.2 MP600 // Corsair 1600W PSU Samsung Odyssey Arc 55" curved 165 Hz monitor. - Simulator Hardware: VIRPIL Constellation Alpha Prime + VIRPIL VPC Universal Control Panel - #3 + MOZA AY210 Force Feedback Yoke + WINWING URSA MINOR 32 Throttle & PAC Metal + WINWING SKYWALKER Metal Rudder Pedals + WINWING Airbus FCU & EFIS + WINWING Boeing 3N PAP + WINWING MCDU-32 + WINWING PFP-4 + WINWING PFP 3-N + WINWING PFP-7.

That's possible, the rudder pedals cost something like 330$ so maybe we won't have to pay for less.

February 3, 20251 yr Author It must most certainly depend on each local legislation, Rich. Here in Israel we are taxed as soon as we breathe a little too loudly. This is fortunately not the case in all countries!! ☺️ - PC Hardware: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D // Asus ROG Crosshair X870E HERO // 2x32Gb Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5 6000MT/s CL30 // ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4090 OC Edition // 4Tb Corsair NVMe M.2 MP600 // Corsair 1600W PSU Samsung Odyssey Arc 55" curved 165 Hz monitor. - Simulator Hardware: VIRPIL Constellation Alpha Prime + VIRPIL VPC Universal Control Panel - #3 + MOZA AY210 Force Feedback Yoke + WINWING URSA MINOR 32 Throttle & PAC Metal + WINWING SKYWALKER Metal Rudder Pedals + WINWING Airbus FCU & EFIS + WINWING Boeing 3N PAP + WINWING MCDU-32 + WINWING PFP-4 + WINWING PFP 3-N + WINWING PFP-7.

February 3, 20251 yr Author ☺️ What is really very surprising is the path taken by this package! After wandering around China, it then made a stopover in Turkey and is currently in France... It is expected in 8 days at my place. I suppose it will make a little trip to Bolivia then to Senegal between now and then. FedEx apparently has big problems with the cost index of its aircraft!!! - PC Hardware: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D // Asus ROG Crosshair X870E HERO // 2x32Gb Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5 6000MT/s CL30 // ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4090 OC Edition // 4Tb Corsair NVMe M.2 MP600 // Corsair 1600W PSU Samsung Odyssey Arc 55" curved 165 Hz monitor. - Simulator Hardware: VIRPIL Constellation Alpha Prime + VIRPIL VPC Universal Control Panel - #3 + MOZA AY210 Force Feedback Yoke + WINWING URSA MINOR 32 Throttle & PAC Metal + WINWING SKYWALKER Metal Rudder Pedals + WINWING Airbus FCU & EFIS + WINWING Boeing 3N PAP + WINWING MCDU-32 + WINWING PFP-4 + WINWING PFP 3-N + WINWING PFP-7.

February 3, 20251 yr 5 hours ago, booga said: I’m in the UK. Mine arrived in Paris on Thursday. It left a FedEx hub near Paris on Saturday morning, and I’ve been given an estimate of next Monday for delivery. They must be walking it to the channel and swimming it over. The routing of these packages is incredibly fascinating. Previous orders from Winwing went from PVG/AMS and then a truck over the channel. I believe ours was making its way to the UK together as I too have an ETA of Feb 10. So far, it has visited New Delhi, Dubai, France but as of 9:30 this morning: International shipment release DARTFORD GB 03/02/2025 09:34
