SI filled out the "Google forms" a month ago and hasn't heard anything. Is their anything else I should do.
IWhat I would like to see in the future is the app to be kinda like the flight sim for aviators app. What it does is sees which airframe you are on, and modifies the butt kicker effects for that aircraft. It also allows you to modify it for each aircraft. So if we were able to have different effects/ settings for each plane that would automatically select based on what aircraft you are using. These settings could be based on community data and be able to modify it to your own liking. For example I believe the f18 has different x and y forces. Being able to center the f14 and f5 stick, f16 setting and whatever else we can dream up. Skys the limit I’m sure.
PWell the telem app already sees which aircraft you're in & changes the effects to whatever has been set in the config for that aircraft, we can edit the ffb effects per aircraft too, just need to edit the config file, it'd be nice if there was a gui for it to make it easier but still we can do it. I think there's some kind of depository being made on the discord here for the different effects ppl have added to their telem app config for different aircraft. Also I think Walmis added something for changing the center point in the software. As you said the sky is the limit when it comes to the Rhino & ffb in sims!
IRight, but it’s only effects not stick setting as far as I’m aware. And it’s in python which I don’t really have the time or desire to learn. Don’t get me wrong it’s pretty awesome, I just think with some drop down menus and working with the vpforce stick app could provide some awesome features. Especially as the community grows, not everyone is a programmer 
IAnyway that’s my dream, I have zero ability to make it happen. 
PPython was only needed by the user to install the telem app but there's an exe install version now & as far as editing the effects per aircraft it's only adding a few lines into the config file no need to learn python or any coding skills, easy enough that I could do it 
you can even just copy paste effects from one aircraft to another then just edit the numbers i.e. speed or angle of attach etc. But yeah at the end of the day a gui with drop down tabs for ffb effects per aircraft etc. would be really cool!

R6 more to go
RI have a jet seat and the additional immersion the rhino is going to give will be amazing
JI've got some ideas of what I might add in addition for further immersion, but for now I'll be content with the Rhino + VR
DIssue is that not all a/c have the same telem effects, there needs to be a sheet created that calls out every effect and what planes have them
JBelt tension system for example sounds amazing, especially since it could be configured to work with racing as well
PApart from the ultimate end goal of having a full 6dof motion rig I'd be happy with either 3x ~40" monitors or VR with; the Rhino, jet seat, butt kickers & a seat mover to top it off.
JHave you seen the recent NextLevelRacing seat pad?
Pyou mean not all aircraft send the same telem by default?
JPyeah I have & I've been considering getting that instead of the jetseat
JThe Jetseat is by Andre right
Pconsidering the extra hassle in getting a jetseat now days, plus the fact I'll have warranty in country at a store like JB Hi Fi or something
Pseen on forums ppl have got the HF8 working with the same software as the jetseat & butt kickers use, can't recall the name atm
Pso you don't need game specific software from NLR, just reads the telem like the jetseat does
JSimShaker?
Pyeah, SimShaker for Aviators I think
Pit's the aviation specific version
JThe Hf8 is just a rebranded Realteus and has all the exact same features, + any new software stuff NLR added
JWhatever I end up doing for more immersion I want it to be compatible with both flying and racing
PI was thinking when I start getting some decent sim racing gear I might just buy another cheap gaming chair like I have & just swap out chairs when going from flight to racing. I have my throttle mounted to the side arm of my 'flight' chair & have the mount on the right for a side stick or hosas for space sim.
JAs someone in the process of figuring out how I want to add flight to my racing cockpit it can definitely be a pain to merge the two together. Definitely making compromises for both and you end up with something somewhat suboptimal across the board, but it can be super convenient too with minimal time or effort on your part to change from one to the other
Pactually this made me think I need to sort out a floor mount for my truck sim gear shifter & jump back into some ETS2 I love driving through Europe listening to the radio stations of the country I'm in
I love driving through Europe listening to the radio stations of the country I'm in JIf I had the physical space I would have a dedicated flight sim cockpit and dedicated racing sim cockpit, and on flight sim I'd have at least a semi instrument panel dash (which isn't really achievable with a racing wheel mounted on the cockpit)
PWell one way I was wondering about merging flight & racing is if I ever get to build a ffb yoke, via VPforce motor kit ofc, I was thinking if it'd be possible to build it with the idea of being able to attach a wheel to too. though it wouldn't be a direct drive wheel 
maybe not then
maybe not thenJBest way would be to have it mounted in such a way to easily swap out yoke for racing
PYeah if you add things like instrument panels it can get a bit harder I guess, I'd love one of WW's F-18 sets!
JMe too
JI'd love a panel for each of the major planes I fly
Jto just swap out at will
Pwell I have my racing pedals (just g27) mounted inverted above my rudder pedals, so they can coexist, I was putting a flat bit of ply on the rudder pedals & that let me use the racing pedals fine enough, but yeah no other way to get around swapping yoke & wheel, although tbh the Rhino & ffb have spoiled my Honeycomb Alpha yoke for me & I haven't been using it lately, looks like it'll be a candidate for a VPforce kit!
Jthats one way to do it
MThx I cannot wait to try it out
JLooking a lot more like I'll be next month 
SCan anyone recommend a budget 80/20 frame for flight sim or instructions on building my own (ill just need the mounting plates) as I dont think my desk mount will cut it anymore.

✓ SimRacing configurator at the best price ✓ MOTEDIS experts in the sector ✓
Jdiy using a place like motedis would be one option, would have to source your own chair
Jwithout a chair you'd be looking at around $400-500usd once you factor in shipping
Jyou probably won't find anything cheaper than that in 80/20 t slot because at that point the majority of the cost is the materials + machining, and shipping
SQuestion is shipping to the UK!
JMaybe UK has a more local solution available 
JSince the parts are universal could rip part list from motedis and order from anywhere that offers them
SYes, but the effects are quite subtle. There is stiffening of controls with speed and aileron trim moving the stick. With full trim the stick is displaced around 1cm from center.
