Rowsfire Weekly Q&A | facebook

Hi everyone, here’s this week’s recap of your questions! A big thank you to everyone for your active questions and honest feedback—we’ve taken every word to heart, and we want to respond to each one here:

1. About Product Details and Improvements:

One of you mentioned the 3D printed version: “The material is good, but there are two issues: the exterior light knobs lack a realistic shape, and the backlight potentiometer isn’t linear—80% of its travel is useless. On the software side, there are a few glitches in the Mobiflight config, like buttons not syncing automatically on launch, forcing manual adjustments…” You also asked about the metal version’s price.

Let’s address this: ① For the exterior light knobs, we previously tried adding plastic caps to the A107’s switches to mimic the real ones, but they were hard to secure and fell off easily. We plan to switch to metal toggle switches later. ② We’ll gradually improve the circuit for the backlight potentiometer; once done, the A101, A102, A106, and A107 will reach their “complete form.” ③ We’re in touch with Mobiflight’s official team to optimize compatibility. The metal version is priced around $300.

Another user wondered about the A107: “The A102 has properly shaped switches for strobes, beacon, landing, and nav lights—why doesn’t the A107? Your panels fill the gap between expensive high-end options and cheap solutions. I’m holding off on ordering until September, hoping for a more polished product.”

We did try adding plastic caps to the A107’s switches to replicate the real aircraft, but they kept falling off, so we held off. We’ll consider metal switches as a replacement later—thank you for your patience!

2. About Orders, Shipping, and Compatibility:

One of you noted: “I ordered on August 1st, and it’s still processing… waiting, waiting…”

A quick update: There are currently 67 pending orders for the A107 metal version. We prioritized processing earlier 3D printed A107 orders first (production techniques differ, so they’re made separately). The metal version is still waiting on illuminated button labels, and we’re adding two extra quality checks compared to other factories, which has caused a slight delay. Rest assured, we’ll only ship once the product is fully optimized!

Someone also shared a positive review: “My Rowsfire A106 pro arrived—my mini cockpit is complete! It’s the best value on the market, and the quality is great.”

We’re thrilled you’re happy! To everyone who shared photos in the group, remember to contact customer service or me for a $5 gift card—it’s our small way of saying thanks.

A user from Iraq asked: “Can you ship the A107 to Iraq for free? Is it fully compatible with the FBW A320 stable version?”

We offer free shipping worldwide—feel free to DM your exact address, and we’ll check details for you. The A107 works with most FBW features, though a few button lights might not sync perfectly. If that’s acceptable, it should work fine! On a side note, the Fenix model is highly recommended—we designed our products to match real aircraft details and workflows, making it ideal for professional practice. Other models just don’t measure up.

3. About Student Support and DIY Tips:

A student studying aeronautical engineering shared: “I want to build a cockpit myself but can’t afford full sets of sim equipment. What 3D printer do you recommend? Do you use Fusion for design?”

We’re big supporters of anyone chasing their flight dreams! Students purchasing our products to practice cockpit skills can contact us for a 20% discount (we’re still new, so support is limited, but we’re eager to help). For 3D printers, we recommend Bambu Lab, and 3Dmax works well for design.

4. About New Products and Plans:

To the user asking if the A107 is now the metal version: Yes, current A107 units are all metal.

To those asking about the A320 Glare Wing: We’ve added it to our schedule! It will be released as a standalone product once our full cockpit set is ready. If you’re building a home cockpit and need specific hardware or accessories, don’t hesitate to let us know.

Regarding when the A108 will be available: Its development is more complex, but we’re testing upgrades like metal casings (for rigidity) and smaller screens. Both are entering testing phases, and we’ll share updates as we go.

Finally: We’ll be recapping your questions weekly, so never hesitate to share ideas or collaboration proposals! There’s also a little surprise coming this week—stay tuned.

Thanks for your trust, and see you next week...
