This link was posted a while back and since then there has been nothing new about these. I seem to remember reading something about them being an idea that may or may not make it to the shelves. Personally, I think Saitek could make a fortune from us if they produced a radio shack with displays and proper switches at a Saitek prices and not GoFlight prices for example, rather than these instruments.

Those got announced... ande then seemed to just disappear from the radar screen. Must be "stealth" products. Wink

They DO look interesting...... hopefully they will eventually release them.

To be honest, I find them a little disappointing. They are a great idea, but as they stand, not. What we are seeing is obviously preproduction, but they are all the same size in a very chunky box and look the same. Now if Saitek produced something like this at Saitek prices, then the money would have already left my account and they would have found a goldmine.

Oh okay because I thought for $100 if I could get that then I would but how long do you thing till any news about that is released again?

Also I agree saitek should make something like that autopilot that would be awesome and knowing there prices I would be right there with you on that Grin
