If I’m not mistaken (and i might be), i think the issue with fenix is not with fenix itself but with prosim - they won’t allow developers to tap into their software w/o a license. Unless prosim changes this policy, fenix won’t be able to interface with the minifcu (or any other hardware for that matter).
@@BobbyFuzzy even despite the lack of data going back into the FCU I'm pleasantly surprised to see that there is still some support like the button LED and the dot telling you you're in a managed mode. But regarding asking Fenix for support is pretty useless as Aamir already is trying to redefine their deal with Prosim to get home cockpit stuff to work.
@@simulacrae Good to know re: Aamir's plans! I've done a couple of flights in the Fenix already with this and it works pretty nice, only inconvenient bit is large heading changes where you have to look away from the PFD or change the ND mode.
I couldn't find it into the website so I can buy it ... Can you plz. send me the direct link for purchasing? however, I couldn't find it in Amazon. Thx for the video
I worried that might be a thing when I first backed it that but then I flew with it with the Fenix and it's fantastic. The only thing missing is the number readout, all of which is visible on the PFD and should be verified there anyway. When spad adds support for it too we should be able to get the numbers also via fenixquartz (the only way any other hardware like this works with the Fenix too currently) not to mention being able to configure it for basically any aircraft 🙂 I hear whispers Fenix are working on support too! Doesn't feel completely useless to me anyway.

Excuse my paraphrasing in the video but yes that is essentially what I'm referring to when I talk about licensing issues on the Fenix side.

I suppose you could get a frame made for it and the other modules coming soon
Yeah absolutely or even use any kind of VESA arm
“Feels about right for the price”…..Does that hold true for the NEW release price of $269?
I would say so. Especially considering the fact other products such as SimpleFCU is about the same price and a CP Flight FCU will be over $1000.
bro! beautiful video. great job!
Thank you so much Blu! Yours too 🙂

It's not on general sale yet. They are currently full filling orders from their Kickstarter backers. Check back at www.minicockpit.com in December.
Thx a lot@@BobbyFuzzy
You should start up drumming the way you tapped on the case 🤣
Hidden talent 😂
I now read the compatability problem has been solved.
Pretty much. Fenix also bringing full support following V2 release. 👌
Very nice vid Bobby!
Thank you my friend!
Do you think it's worth the original price of 250$
The original price is around 100$, unless you're using a different dollar?
@@BobbyFuzzy i think that was just for the Kickstarter . There was a screenshot something like " like buy now for 99$ and save 150$ "
Ah yes I see. I think so. It's a quality unit. Super authentic and really nice feel to it. Would be interested to see how WinWings unit turns out.
Is this compatible on Xbox?
Afraid not!
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed dude :)
Does that works on xbox series x
Unfortunately not
How do I even buy it?
They are currently shipping orders to backers of the Kickstarter. They are planning another round of pre-orders in December!
@@BobbyFuzzy so I can buy it in December?
@lukedenman9291 Correct!
does it work on Xbox?
It's for PC only I'm afraid
@@BobbyFuzzy O ok thanks
@@BobbyFuzzy it would of been cool to have in the xbox
Guys most of the serious developers have no interest on consoles.
If you want to make the most of the sim you have to be on PC.
@@pilotBA For sure! Not sure what support would be like for a device like this on Xbox though as it uses a proprietary driver.
Without full integration with Fenix A320, it is completely useless. Especially since it's not a cheap controller.

wow, you are SO wrong
@@BobbyFuzzy agree. They're working out some license deal with Fenix. It'll come I'm sure.
Just read a a software fix is now available@@brian_serafin
Glorified button box.
..... And it isn't micro USB illegal now in Europe.
To be fair you could apply that analogy to almost any peripheral going!
No you're thinking of Apples Lightning connector.
