CH Throttle and Pedals are out for delivery from my order with Amazon. Fighterstick from TD is still pending just like your stuff, roy. I don't know what the problem is, but frankly I'm thinking TD is full of bologna. Especially with the quickness that Amazon got my stuff shipped.

Thought about canceling my TD order and getting it elsewhere, but I hear that they can't seem to do that correctly either.
After losing my cool with them via e-mail, they finally gave me a correct tracking number for the thrustmaster joystick i bought/shipped to my buddy. Why the correct one was different than the one in the e-mail they sent me I have no idea. Never shopping TD again

Here's hoping you get your shipping notification tomorrow. You've been waiting far too long.

I contacted CH and they dont know why is it taking so long either.Maybe they are not in stock.Anyways they should notify me what exactly is happening.Im really upset.

Edit*Went to check the status of my orders, and after 2 weeks one of them got canceled.Im so freaking pissed!!

Who says CH Products is the factor for the slow delivery?
Tigerdirect is not even on the official "where to buy" list / Distributors list.

I will keep you guys updated on the delivery speed of my CH Products order at Simware (I could not go to the shop itself. Closed on Saturday, and on week days i work. So i did a post delivery order)

Sorry about your canceled order, that totally sucks! I think I'll give them a call tomorrow and *try* to cancel my order with them. I'll just get my stick from CH themselves and be done with 3rd party retailers (unless Amazon has them in stock again, but they only get a few at a time and they go quick!).

I'd hate to rub it in your face Roy, but the throttle and pedals are damn nice. You're going to like them when you finally get them. I don't know how people were complaining about the pedals being too narrow, they seem perfectly fine to me. It's not like my legs are smashed together trying to use them heh. I hope they don't slide on my carpet while in the heat of combat. The casual flight around an airfield I had, they worked fine. The rubber stoppers in the bottom seem better suited for a hard surface though.

Now I have the daunting task of trying to learn CH Control Manager. Poking around with it on my own for over an hour and still pretty much clueless. Going to have to find that Control Manager for Dummies PDF I looked at a few days ago....

Probably shouldn't even say these words for fear of starting some crazy war, but Track IR is leaps and bounds better than the FacetrackNoIR I was using with my webcam. Holy moly!

Well guess what, I got a phone call while I was at college from UPS.So I got the Combatstick at home!!!! Called tiger about the other order that got cancelled, they told me that they wont seel those items anymore.So Im gonna buy them from another site.Maybe Amazon, dont know yet.Lets unbox!!!

Edit**Holy sh)^& this thing is huge!!!!

LMAO. I can only imagine based off the size of my throttle, which is also pretty damn big.

So I take it you got no notification or tracking number from TD about your combat stick being shipped???

+1 on that. Got a Combat stick and Pro throttle about a week ago. I've calibrated the controllers using Control Manager and saved a profile - but it's hard to get a handle on the other features - and with the possibility of using modes and writing scripts things can get out of hand pretty quickly.

Unfortunately it's a little difficult to grasp some of the concepts from the provided help. Need to go back to the Dummies pdf again myself.

Should be very powerful and configurable once I've mastered it though!

After over 8 years with CH gear I have never figured out the control software for it. A classic example of software by programmers for programmers.

Fortunately every thing I need for the sim can be configured in the game itself.

Still the CH hardware is the best out there. Bullet proof.
