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)

I know it is not CH fault, but Tigerdirect's.Ill try to cancel the other order and buy from an official dealer.

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!

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???

None whatsoever, and they havent charged me yet, I hope they dont LOL.Im just staring at this thing.It does seem like its built like a tank even though it is not heavy at all.

Absolutely lame on no tracking notification. Maybe I'm strange but I love watching my package move across the country and land at my doorstep haha.

Fingers crossed on not getting charged. For the time you waited and the extra grief, they'd better not charge you

I doubt it is going to happen but no one knows .How was your experience with Amazon?And how much was the shipping?

[blampars]

Amazon experience was very good. Took them 2 days to get it shipped with tracking numbers available. Ordered everything on thursday and got it this afternoon. No complaints.

Orders over $25.00 ship free with their super saver shipping method. Their speedier shipping is relatively low cost if you opt to go that route.
The rudder pedals came with some free simulator software that I've yet to take a look at. An added bonus I guess.

I'd personally recommend trying to get the rest of your stuff through them, the pedals and the throttle were both around $95, fyi.
