Just had an email from Virtual Fly saying they are announcing a new product range called Switcho. It appears they are a new range of switch panels but there no pictures or any more information on what they actually are.
Does anyone have any more info about these?
It’s great we are seeing new hardware being released.

Yeah I got the same email. I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
I see that these are now available for pre order but way over priced for what they are in my opinion. As an example the lights panel which just contains switches is 495€ that’s more than I paid for my excellent Fulcrum yoke. Can’t see many sales at those prices.
Yes I agree they are over priced but they are excellent quality. Virtual Fly are known for their outstanding quality as with their yoke. It would be good to see Honeycomb get into making something similar as I’m sure the prices would be lower, but still having quality.
Yesterday my switcho radio arrived. After connecting and setup the radio have no connection with the sim. Anyone else this problem ??
I just received switcho trims. In VFHub it shows as “enabled”, but does not work with FS2020
With my switcho radio i did (after several not working times) first set on your device.
Then start VFhub and there was a firmware update for my radio.
After the automatic update it was working.
Thx! My switcho trims works with X -plane 12. I cannot get my switcho trims to get a firmware update.
Does anyone know how to change the Baro Units to inHg on the SWITCHO Radios?
VF told me that they were going to push an update in December to make that an option. They did push an update last month, but they haven’t responded to my latest question about whether the option is now available and, if so, how to change the units.
Hello,
My Switcho Radio shows as connected in VFHub and seems to work ok, when I start MSFS the Switcho Radio display shows that there is a firmware update 1.0.3 and I can select Dismiss or Update. When I select Dismiss on the Radio MSFS starts and seems to work partially I can use most buttons and rotary knobs but the indicators for trims and gear don’t work and when I dial in a radio frequency with my mouse in MSFS it does not sync with the Switcho Radio.
When I select Update on the Switcho Radio it start to try and update, I waited for more then one hour but the update seems to freeze?
How can I fix this and what is the latest Radio firmware?
Thanks.
Hello Dutchy60, lijkt op hollandse 60 er. I have also a switcho radio. I use 1092.
Romeo C
Ja helemaal correct NL 1960 haha
What do you mean with I use 1092, the VFHub version or the Firmware version for the Radio?
Can I somewhere see what version my Radio firmware is?
Thanks.
I mean VFHUB1092. With all later versions I got incorrect and strange flickering values on the display. Yesterday I tried the latest version 118. It works well again. I don’t know a button where I can check firmware. I do remember that I had one firmware update in the beginning just after the release of the switcho. Greetings Hans from Delfts Blue.
Can you remember from using VFHub1092 to what firmware your Switcho Radio was updated?
There is probably a folder under your VFHub application folder where firmware zip files are downloaded before the get installed on your Switcho Radio device, can you please check this?
I also sent an email explaining my update problem to support@virtual-fly.com and today I got a reply that the development team will look into my problem and will get back to me.
Fingers crossed…
Thanks.
I think the firmware update was before i installed VFHub 1092. There is nothing in the folders about the firmware update. I think the firmware is in the switcho.
Maybe you can try uninstal all about Virtual fly Switcho. Clean your register. Reboot and install again.
I already tried everything you mentioned and more.
As a Microsoft .NET C# and C++ software developer with more then 30 year of experience I think I know what I am doing. So whenever come to the forums and sent emails to VF support I am really desperate. 
Thanks for helping me.
Let’s hope VF support comes up with a solution.
I let you know if the come up with a working solution.
Nog een vraagje was jij het die mijn een Steam vriendschap verzoekje stuurde?
Ja ik had nog een oud steam acc.
Sorry for bothering you again.
I have one more question on how your Sitcho Radio works using VFHub 1.1.8.
Does your setup work in both ways, keeping the Radio and MSFS in sync?
Item 1 works for me but item 2 does not work.
Even using my old Logitech Radio does both items and keeps in sync.
Thanks.
No problem for your question.
Switcho and MSFS work in both ways. So 1 and 2 are working. Only my iasmach button is not working. When turning it return to zero. I made a ticket for VirtualFly, I got the same answer as you got ( more than 1 year ago.)
