Hardware makers WINWING has announced a new product that will replicate a full-sized Airbus FCU for flight simulators. The new FCU (Flight Control Unit) will allow you to interact with a number of aircraft with a physical controller that is designed for Airbus aircraft.
The launch video above gives us just a teaser of what to expect from the product. We can see that the unit will have light-up displays and be able to connect to other units to complete a full FCU unit. This will include the autopilot controls, navigation mode selectors and more.
Pre-orders are due to begin soon, but WINWING gave indication on how much the Full FCU unit will cost. You can view pricing per region down below. This also includes some early-bird pricing.
