Icarus One Flight Console

[royraiden]

I just recently saw this  panel named Numca's Icarus One and my first thought was that it was about the best controller one could get for combat flight sims in my opinion.I emailed the guy who makes them but he told me that he is not able to produce them right now but if he had the time he would be willing to make them again.So first I wanted to ask if anyone here by any chance got to buy the panel when it was available and second, if you had not seen this before and would like to have one I encourage you to email the guy just to let him now the interest, maybe he just needs a bit of motivation and if more people wanted it maybe that could be enough motivation for him to make them

 

Some of its features:

 

• USB connectivity (Plug'n'play in Windows as Game Controller)
• 8 Analog axes with 10-bit (1023 steps) precision
• 27 buttons
• 5 red illuminated buttons
• LED backlight
• Eject button using a lockable emergency stop mushroom button
• P-38 laser-engraved plane on Trim Panel
• Nickname laser-engraved on the front of the console

 

 

This is the panel Im talking about:

And here is a video showing it in use with IL-2 1946:

Just by looking at it I feared the price had to be steep, can you recall exactly how pricey they were?
