It would need to angle rearward. Looks like the virpil one angles forward. I think I'm going to print a custom short one that angles rearward. See how that goes.
Hey does anyone find it weird when you take off force trim in the helis add it moves so freely? I feel like there should be some resistance but I really don't know
ahh ok, I'm not familiar with the extension up close, I wonder if things can be undone & turned around on the extension so it would work? It just caught my eye how similar the shape looked to the Virpil adapter
Geez, there goes my lucky number and up comes a new, fine number, bringing me closer to the finish line. Guess I better get on to print my stick I want to put on that thing, otherwise it's here before I'm done
Is anyone in here using the "VPC SharKa-50 Control Panel" from Virpil as a jetfighter throttle? I wonder how well it works for this purpose.. I'm trying to make room for a helicopter collective, and that's a difficult thing to do with a HOTAS throttle in the way. And the "VPC SharKa-50 Control Panel" follows the collective up and down, pretty neat.
★ Adjustable Mounting Point for your VPC Control Panel ★ Holds your VPC Control Panel at the Same Angle While the Collective is in use ★ High Quality All Metal Construction ★ Cable Guide Clips for a Tidy Cockpit ★ Conveniently Places the Control Panel Right by Your Hand
Ah, yes that was the one I was thinking about when asking the initial question.. I am thinking of using the control VPC panel #3 as a throttle for fighter jets when I'm not flying helicopters, and was wondering how well it works for the jets.. Also, come to mind is that perhaps the VPC panel #3 might be too low when collective is in a resting position
I don't think that's correct. For just the base/grip, use the black connector. I think the red one is if you plug something into the Aux jack of the base (e.g. switch panel). I've never used the red connector as my Shark panel is connected directly via USB.
Ah, ok I was starting to wonder, as I got the invoice and tracking number a couple days ago but the #36 hadn't been announced by the bot yet, I guess a couple people must have backed out. Too bad for them, and great for me! I'm really looking forward to having a FFB joystick again after so many years!
