Hi guys,

VKB Gunfighter Mk.III ‘F-14 Combat Edition’ and F-14 Stand-Alone Grips are now available to purchase.

Customers who purchased their DCS F-14 module from the Heatblur or Eagle Dynamics stores respectively will receive 10% off of the grip’s retail price during checkout. Coupon codes need be entered in the following format: XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXX (including hyphens; spaces are not allowed).

Heatblur customers, please use the coupon code provided to you by Heatblur (hint: search your inbox (or spam folder) for the sender “sendowl”, by which these codes were sent by HB). If you have any issues, please email Heatblur support directly at support@hetablur.se

Eagle Dynamics customers, find it in your Eagle Dynamics Personal Section > Orders > DCS: F-14 Tomcat > Details.

Customers who purchase a Gunfighter Mk.III ‘F-14 Edition’ or a F-14 Combat Grip (Stand-Alone) without applied discount – and have not yet bought the Heatblur DCS F-14 module – will receive a $10 USD discount for the DCS F-14 module on Heatblur’s store, courtesy of VKB HQ. VKB HQ will email coupon codes to qualified customers.

For Steam users who purchased their F-14 copy via Steam we currently don’t have a way to offer the same discount, but we’re working on a solution with VKB HQ. Once we know more, we will let you know.

Until next time,

Hi guys,

with VKB HQ staff slated to return to work from coronavirus enforced closures over in China on Monday, Feb 17, we at VKBcontrollers.com have decided to open up ordering today.

With that in mind, we’ll keep an eye out for any further updates from VKB HQ if their return to work is delayed any further. Should anything change, we will let you know via our store notices as soon as we find out.

Until next time,

Hi guys,

Hi guys,

due to logistical reasons, we here at VKBcontrollers.com have discontinued the option to order from Australia and New Zealand, effective immediately.

VKB HQ is taking over for those regions via their Asia-Pacific Ali Express shop.

Ordering from the US and Canada remains unaffected by this decision.

Until next time,

Hi guys,

have a look at this announcement on VKB’s official forum for the new UCM Stronghold table/desk mounts: http://forum.vkb-sim.pro/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=3945

Once we have all the details we need to create the respective product pages for the various UCM options, we will be able to open up ordering shortly thereafter.

Product pages are ready, we’re still waiting on some finishing touches by VKB HQ.

Stay tuned!

Until next time,

Hi guys,

VKB HQ told me that Gunfighter Mk.III orders should start shipping tomorrow, Tuesday Dec 17. Shipping commences on a first-come, first-served basis as orders were received (so please be patient if your order still shows processing after tomorrow). Shipping these orders will take several days.

Once I receive tracking numbers from VKB’s shipping dept, I will update processing orders accordingly.

Remember – each time there is a new product launch it usually means a lot more lead time is needed for VKB HQ to process orders, as VKB’s shipping dept gets slammed – hence the delay in shipping.

Until next time,
