Lmao. I had a vkb on max strength as a desktop stick that felt limp and that’s not even with an exte
Lmao. I had a vkb on max strength as a desktop stick that felt limp and that’s not even with an extension
原F-16 sidestick requires 25~30lbs-ish on pitch, can't remember the number tho. high 1x lb for rolling
SYea. The real sim fssb maxes at like 13 pounds I think
原affirm. and that's not even close for the real number for pitch
SI still felt like I was cranking on it though before it started to beep at me
原F18EFG
SThe guy from laser wing sayd he had his stick at 2% force and it was stronger then the rhino if im not mistaken
SWhat’s the price on those?
SI didn’t see one listed on the site
SBut yea that sounds hella strong
SThe motors cost like 400 each if im not mistaken
SBut its in a whole nother league
SSo he builds it for you? Is it fairly new?
SVery new
SI dont know if he builds it for you but I know you can buy a kit
SWith all the components
SAnd you build it
SActually sorry no
SHmmm idk if that’s a project I’m willing to take on
SLol
SSome components you have to buy from outside
SLike the motors and o drive
SFfb sounds like more fun than a side stick fssb
SI’d have to find a joystick to pair it with
SThe instructions are there and laser wing helps out. Maybe if you wait a bit you eill be able to buy a pre built one
SIm not good at waiting lol
SIdk if I wanna literally risk getting blue balls
SThe thrustmaster f16 and f18 is good.
SLol
SAs in bruised nuts
SI like some of the virpil sticks. The new alpha prime is pretty sweet
SI mean who needs kids when there is ffb joystick to fly with
SI have two of them and I’m done so I can risk it
SLol
SI may have to just drop the sim racing side of things and get a ffb center stick
SIm ok with it. I like flight sim more anyways. If I wanna race I’ll just go to a go kart track lol
SYou can buy just the sticks with no base?
SI like the american replica sticks because they are designed so you can hit any hat switch without accidentally hitting another one or having to reach around, there is a word for it I forget. I dont know much about how virpils sticks feel so I cant say much
SYes
SI dont think you have to do that, there should be some kind of quick release at the base of the stick. Or one can be devised up.
SIm also going to install mine in my racing chair once I get around to it
SAnd it will have to be center mounted
原btw VPForce (will) support both of them. TM/Virpil natively, VKB with adaptor and external wiring to the black box, and the Winwing adaptor is close
SSide mount is a no go. Thats reserved for the f16 and it wouldnt work right with a ffb stick
原TM grips are too heavy
SThey are heavy but it will be fine I think on these ffb bases
原which is not a good thing if you want a strong force unless the motor is a real beast
原for example the Warthog grip is almost twice the weight to Alpha Prime or MCGU or winwing's
SSo the alpha prime is compatible? Bc it only listed the non prime version
原hmm the buttons are the same no? iirc they said it's the same for the virpil base in the HOTAS discord virpil channel.
SI would assume if it works for one it should work for all.
