RAM Controls
Circo:
I just read the KLOV thread or alot of it at least. And all I can say is wow wow wow. Hard to believe this crap is real but i guess there is no denying it.
Havok:
This sounds like a Jerry Springer show...

I have read these posts over the last several Months but never looked at how much RAM Controls was charging for the Star Wars cockpits and uprights. Well, I just did and that was the first huge red flag for me!
IMO - Little to no profit is possible if he was going to build those games to the specs described at those prices.
You would need to charge twice the price to make sure that your overhead expenses would be covered, TAXES PAID ON THE PROFIT, and then a decent % net operating profit for the company.
No matter what good intentions were there at the beginning, it was a pipe dream from the start.

I really want a yoke. I sent this email last week to RAM Controls. I got no response. Sigh.
"Hello, I’d like to buy a yoke and a USB adapter. I’m in Canada. I’m also aware of the controversy surrounding your company from KLOV and BYOAC.
I will purchase a yoke, adapter, if you will ship them to me via UPS Worldwide Express to Canada, and I’ll pay the extra shipping costs. If this agreeable I would also ask that you throw in the Atari decal. I would be willing to pay via Paypal (I am verified) and my paypal account is backed by a Visa. To be clear, if the parcel does not arrive with a working yoke and accessories in the time agreed upon, I will cancel my order. Either way, good or bad, I will post my experience on the forums.
Let me know."

If you really want a yoke then you can do it. Watch ebay for a used yoke. There are rebuild kits out there. Get a Sidewinder joystick and hack to fit the yoke. Re-paint the yoke if necessary and get a decal from Thisoldgame. Done.
