After six years in the consumer flight simulation hardware market, WINWING has officially announced a major brand transition. Beginning in 2025, the company will operate under a new name: WINCTRL.
The announcement, shared directly with the community during the holiday season, frames the change as a natural evolution rather than a reset. WINCTRL is presented as a continuation of WINWING’s original mission, with a sharper focus on precision, realism, and long-term user engagement.
According to the statement, the new name reflects “precise control in every flight,” underlining the brand’s ongoing emphasis on fine-tuned hardware and immersive flying experiences. The company also highlights the role of its community in shaping the brand over the years, referencing early-generation hardware feedback, long technical discussions, and long-standing community members.
What changes with WINCTRL?
The rebrand comes with several commitments aimed at existing and future users:
- Smarter products with improved hardware tuning for higher realism
- Enhanced customer support, including more efficient service and expanded warranty coverage
- Stronger community engagement, featuring exclusive beta programs and offline meetups
Importantly, WINCTRL positions this shift as a forward-looking upgrade rather than a break from the past. Existing customers are reassured that the brand’s core values and product philosophy remain intact.
Cyber Taurus teased for Q1
Alongside the rebrand announcement, WINCTRL also teased an upcoming product named “Cyber Taurus,” scheduled to land in Q1. No technical details were disclosed, but the teaser suggests that new hardware developments are already aligned with the new brand identity.
A new chapter, same flight path
With this transition, WINCTRL signals a more mature phase of its evolution—one focused on refinement, support, and deeper community ties. For flight simulation enthusiasts familiar with WINWING, the name may change, but the trajectory remains firmly set toward high-fidelity control and immersive virtual aviation.
