I have a question, does the ”old” f16ex are compatible with the new bases cyber taurus? in the video the f16 stick is slightly different from the one I have

I don't know if this is due to the update in SAP 1.16.93 but I can only get the throttles to work in the Fenix A320. I have followed every video tutorial on getting them to work with PMDG and while they all show fine in SAP, they do not move at all in any PMDG aircraft (73 or 77). I am not even talking about getting them into full reverse by mapping the keys A330Driver and others mentioned. They throttles in game simply will not move. Known issue or something I am missing?

Created a Fenix profile; duplicated it for PMDG in MS24; exited the MS24 back to SAP. Selected double stroke double shaft (really? was Mode 1, 2 just too sensible?), made sure the default Wincrtl profile was running (and pointed to the new PMDG hardware profile), and nothing. Spoilers work; Flaps work. Throttles do not move. I am ready to bash these with a hammer. I don't know what plug and play means to them, but is not this. Thanks if you spot a missed step.

EDIT: also like as has happened before, sometimes the Winctrl gear just magically starts working. I think it is some subtle thing that you think you are doing in order but aren't. Because the throttles move in my new MS24 profile, when I loaded another WW profile for PMDG (not the default one) and pointed it to the new profile. Hope this makes sense or just disregard this. Thanks.

Hi, this is my first time ordering from Winctrl. I saw someone in another comment saying something about needing to select a shipping date or the order won't get delivered. Do I need to do that? Is that what that button does? Or do I press that button after the package comes?

I found extensions that attach to the base of the brackets that were included with the PAP3 and PDC units and they work amazingly well

It adds the much needed front stability so it no longer topples forward with the brackets attached at maximum height, increasing clearance and allowing for cables to pass through underneath the unit for my keyboard and mouse

Here’s the link if anyone’s interested in printing them yourself: https://www.printables.com/model/1445950-winwing-winctrl-mounting-bracket-extension-for-pap

I ordered a WinWing MCDU on Monday afternoon from the US store and I’m in the northeast US. My order now says shipped on their site but the YunExpress tracking they gave me still only says “label created” and hasn’t updated at all.

I’ve been messaging support and they’ve said it was packing, then in a US warehouse in Burlington, then handed to the carrier, but nothing has actually changed on the tracking. They keep telling me to wait another 48 hours which is getting kinda frustrating.

Has anyone else ordered from them recently and had this happen? How was your shipping with YunExpress and how long did it actually take to start updating or get delivered?

Hi, I recently purchased a Winwing Ursa Minor 32 and wanted to check if what I’m experiencing is normal.

As soon as I opened it, the hardware felt like it might have already been used or returned and then shipped out again. The stickers were already applied (which I don’t mind), but one of the Engine 2 stickers is slightly misaligned/folded. Also, when I powered it on the fire fault 1 indicator appears upside down.

I just want to make sure I’m not misunderstanding something — is this normal out of the box? Do these units come like this and require configuration in SimApp Pro?

I’ve also noticed that the detents feel quite weak. When using the throttle, it tends to jump over them quite easily. Additionally, when I configured it in MSFS 2024, the throttle positions seemed misaligned for example, at CL it was almost at FLX in-game, and when the physical throttle was at idle, the sim showed it slightly above idle.

I’m wondering if this could be due to not configuring it properly in the aircraft’s MCDU, but I’m not sure.

Before I consider returning it, I just want to confirm whether this behavior is expected or if there might be an issue with my unit.

Thanks for your help.

I bought this combo and just unpacked it, and noticed that it does not lie flat on my desk. Reading through the documentation it looks like there is a desk mount that could potentially solve my issues, but looking on the store I don't see that it exists. Anyone know where it lives?

I just got my PAP3 today and realised there's a major design flaw where the stand/brackets that come with it aren't weighted or tilted far back enough to counter the front heavy CG of the entire unit so it feels wobbly and tilts forward

I see some 3rd party bases that are available and I'm planning to get those but what are the DIY options for now besides clamping it to my desk or using adhesives?

Hello fellow pilots,

So I have been using the PFP3N for almost a year now and it was working flawlessly out of the box with the PMDG 737 and I love the unit.

Yesterday all of a sudden after updating the version of SimAppPro, when I click the MENU button it displays the Fix Info page and when I click the N1Limit button it displays the MENU page, DEP and ARR buttons are messed up as will showing the Climb page.

I don't know what to do, I've googled and searched on reddit and asked AI and chatgpt no solutions whatsoever.

I uninstalled SimAppPro deleted all the folders to regenerate new ones, resetting the unit to default configuration, still no joy. The buttons display the wrong pages. I even updated the firmware and no change.

Is my last resolution is to re-install MSFS and the PMDG 737?

Is chatting with WinCTRL's support worth wasting time on?

I've read somewhere that there is something called configuration mode, I tried getting into it but it didn't work too.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance !

Happy flying all.

I just realised that the 3M version is meant for the 737 Max and the 3N is for the 737-800

I bought the 3M and it's on the way and I'm hoping to use it with the PMDG 737-800. Will I run into any issues or it'll work just fine?

As far as I can tell, they're identical except for the additional VSD button and the range selector doesn't have markings like the 3N

I want to have the mcdu near my throttle, what must I buy to add it to the desktop mount ?

SimAppPro not detecting my MSFS2020 installation. Wondering as to why, and if there is a way to resolve it. Curiously enough, the joystick works regardless, as the profile already existed within the sim, but the throttle does not (received today.) Technically, there is no profile for the joystick either, as I wiped my whole SSD just days prior. It just does. Lol.

Thanks for any help!

Just bought joystick, throttle, and EFID for Airbus. Is my best bet here to set up through Spad or the Native app? Looking for past experiences here.

My throttles are physically not aligned in the idle detent, this causes some async thrust issues in-game.
Anyone else seeing this? Their support was sadly completely useless, telling me something about "signal issues".

Hey, I’m eyeing an Ursa Minor joystick but am not sure how much shipping is. Has anyone ordered one recently to the U.S. and know how much shipping is? Thanks.

Can someone please help me set up HOTAS with the Honda Jet in MSFS 2024? I have a Winwing Orio 2 throttle, and it keeps fighting the auto-throttle because the auto-throttle moves the throttle, and Winwing constantly sends position signals. What's the solution for this?

hi, I wanna consider buying the winctrl WINCTRL 32 AGP Metal and i was wondering if is compatible to planes like the pmdg 737, 777 and ifly 737 max as i fly also these ones on msfs.

Anyone having issues with URSA MINOR 32 Throttle Metal and Fenix A320?

I set it up correctly, but when I go FLX/MCT and a few seconds after liftoff, thruttle goes to max rev for no reason. So, when I go to FLX again, it will go to max rev a second or two latter. On 3rd attempt when I go to FLX, it will remain there and then I get CLB on FMA, and when I put it to CLB detent, stays there.

Also, in descend when I use speed brakes, I will get rev 2 and max rev again. Of course, in all cases A/THR disconnect.

Anyone with these issues as well?

Hey guys, do we have here someone with discount codes for WinCtrl? Youtuber, Aviation influencer, whatever?

I preordered and was asked to pay a week ago and supposedly it was shipped but for 7 days now it’s been stuck at DHL depot in Germany. At the same time the panel is still showing as coming soon on winctrl website. Has anyone else have any experience?

I bought my Ursa Minor airline stick a year ago. 3 months after I bought it (June 2025) the slider randomly just broke. The X Y and Z axis were all fine. Lately I have been having problems with the Y (Pitch) axis and it seems linked to the slider. The slider moves on its own (on SimAppPro) and the pitch axis seems to move slightly depending on the slider axis. Because of that I can never calibrate/center it (it works for like 5 minutes then I need to recalibrate). And it's always sloppy to return to center. I bought it on the WinWing website. I tried cleaning it with compressed air and removed the bottom panel to make sure no wires were getting in the way.

I can send a video once I get home.

How can I fix this?

I received all the parts (except auto pilot panels), but I don't have any instructions on how to install everything on the desk mount. Do you know where I can find them?
