I agree with what Mark said above about how do you buy it because if it's like an SLR camera and you have to get all the pieces separately it's going to be a massive investment, unless they sell it in different configurations so it's all there but they've only had to make one mould for the main body ???

I also agree with a previous poster who essentially said it's going to be in the back of the wardrobe in a year and people are only going to say they like it to justify the expense to themselves. It just seems another gimmick that looks quite cool but in practice is a bit odd.

Something I don't think I've spotted anyone saying yet is HOW it's going to work with your brain. When I started many years ago only stick sets were available. So you had a stick for go / stop and a stick for left / right. Then the wheels came out, trigger and steering wheel, fiar enough, steering wheel albeit smaller is a natural thing, after all ride on toys from the age of 1 have steering wheels so we're all used to them

The sudden combination of trigger and stick is an odd one, and one I think that will play havoc with our brains. It's great that KO have been so innovative and I hope that I'm complete wrong and they do really well but I just think they're going to take too much getting used to and people will loose interest with them. We can't even get people to change to the wheel radio's completely yet, so many still use sticks so I don't know what chance this is going to have ???
