MFG SiMM8Rge USB joystick controller

Works as described... but service....

The device works as described. The part was also easy to replace and requires minimal tools and effort.

My Crosswind came in faulty as none of my devices could detect it. I was really hoping for MFG to provide support but they didn't respond after sending a single troubleshooting guide email that did not help. So I had to "guess" that this was the faulty part and replace it myself.

Really dissapointing after hearing many good reviews about the support.

Always out of stock

Been waiting for parts for a month. Never in stock. Would probably avoid buying rudder pedals. Poor support.

Still out of stock.

It's been over a month and a half, still out of stock. Can't get the part anywhere else.
Pedals are useless until I can get them fixed.

Received a response

Should be back in stock soon.
Will review again when ordered and received. Submitting a new review because I can't update the old one.

Never in stock.

Repeated requests for information or estimation when the part will be in stock are ignored. I haven't even gotten a "we don't know".

Replacement Part

Was having intermittent issues with connection and I thought it was my motherboard port but it turned out to be this little guy. Was a quick and easy replacement without the need of soldering but rather just a couple of screws and 5 mins later, all is good to go. Thanks again Milan

Fast service

Cats broke the USB connector on my CrossWind pedals and had to order a new controller board. As always fast and friendly service by MFG! Soon back in the air again.

Fast delivery

This arrived quickly and works well.

As it turns out, I probably could have solved the problem with a software fix. I had some problems a while back where the USB port was damaged by my dog dragging on the cable when he hid under my desk and I had to solder a new USB port onto the board. I'm not good at this and made a bit of a mess of the job. It worked but there was jumpiness in the brake pedals so I eventually decided to buy a new board. I had the same problem with the new board and found that I just needed to reset the game controller settings to default and it went away. Probably would have fixed it with the old board.

At least I have a spare.

not a year old

They are great pedals however over a week ago they stop working. i have contacted support and it has been 9 days and havent gotten a response. so now i have a set of 500 dollar paper weights i have contacted support and no response. my guess is the usb board went out. and there out of stock so now i have no rudder pedals.

Warranty repair

my pedals failed and this part was sent to get them working again. Worked great, i'm back in the air. Thank you Milan for prompt service.

SiMM8Rge USB Controller Replacement

My new controller failed within 6 months, so I contacted the support team. They recommended replacing the controller board and promptly shipped a new unit at no cost to me as it was under warranty, which is working well. I appreciate the quick response. I have been using the rudder pedals for many years and find these to be the best out of all other brands available in the market - trust me, I have tried 4 different brands.

Spare part under guarantee

After having some trouble with the MFG rudder pedals, the costumer service send me this spare part under guarantee and everything was OK again.
I am happy with the quality of MFG products. Maybe their customer service is not specially fast, but they always answer and solved the problem.

Back in the air.

New part got rudder working beautifully again after a careless mishap on my part. As usual Milan came through. Shipping was super fast too. I love shopping here.

Milan Flight Gear the best of the best!!

MFG provides a superior product and then enables the consumer to repair any part at a reasonable price point. The equipment is durable and easy to maintain. The software can be a little confusing figuring out which firmware version is needs to be installed but their support goes out of it's way to assist you. The company has produced a number of YouTube videos to further help anyone struggling. From the time of purchase to delivery was 10 days to my home in Southern California.

Rudder Controller

Ordered on Thursday received it the following Thursday in Oregon all the way from Croatia. It is hard for me to get things across country in a week. Thank you so much for the speedy delivery. Now I am up and flying again.
