Cjust learned this exists today and already got on the waiting list

AHow on Earth do you reach the stick like that?
Fthat's fully forward and a weird angle, it's not bad at all. Not managed to take a photo showing it with decent perspective that doesn't show way too much of my living room though
AAh right
AIt still looks awfully tall though?
ADon’t mind me being inquisitive I hope, I’m particularly interested because I’ve got pretty much the same chair, chair mounts, stick and extension
AAnd my Rhino isn’t much far off, so I’m trying to figure out how best to mount it
FThe actual@base of the stick is around an inch higher than my legs - it is a lot of throw with this extension though
Jthats basically how i want to mount mine, but on my cockpit
Jdo you know what length beam that is you put it on fred?
KIs that chair comfortable? I've had one on order for months, so curious how nice it is in person...
FNot sure, but came with the center mount kit
FYeah, I’m happy with it
JI see I'll dig around cheers
KJust got mine mounted up yesterday.
Jooh i like that
Jthat looks similar to a tr120 or 160

ZSo if you wanted to use your gunfighter grip with this, you would just get a black box as a substitute to the base?
Lthat's correct
ZThanks.
NSorry maybe I'm a bit slow, does this mean you need the base and the blackbox or does this mean you plug the base of the stick into the blackbox and then into the pc?
AYou need the blackbox
Aand the VKB adapter for the Rhino
NI see, so it goes Grip —> Rhino —> BlackBox —> PC?
NOr does it split somewhere along the way?
AIt's actually Grip -> Adapter -> blackbox
Athere is no electrical connection between the adapter and the Rhino base
Athe wiring comes out of the adapter
NOh alright, how does that look physically?
Athe adapter looks like this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/972180323787997255/994218174927081492/IMG_20220706_152425.jpg
NSo I assume that sits between the Rhino and grip, does that mean you have two USBs for the PC (blackbox and Rhino base) and then a power cable for the base?
Ayes
NIs the software solution to that seamless? Or does it detect it as two different devices?
NFor example if I were to configure it in DCS, would the Rhinos axis and the grips button inputs be two different devices or the same unit
Ayou have two separate devices, but there's a loopback app that allows the VPForce configurator to see the buttons on the grip
Ain DCS you have the VKB stick and the Rhino base separately
Ayou can still use vkb software to configure the grip
NAh that’s a shame but not the end of the world
Awell the vkb thing is in competition for my least favorite software of all time
Abut it's manageable
NI don’t really use any of the standalone softwares, I usually just configure what I need in the games I use it in
AIIRC the issue was that Walmis wasn't able to decode the VKB grip's protocol so using the blackbox was the only option
Avirpil and TM are directly compatible, winwing adapter talks to the Rhino base and VKB needs the blackbox in addition to the adapter
NDo you happen to have experience with the Rhino in DCS specifically?
