Thinking of these pedals together with the Rhino.
WWhat do you want to know ? Mine work great and very strong. But sadly no feedback of course. More likely to get feedback from Walmis' telemetry hacks in the future with a home built pedal than for Brunner to implement something. But they are built well and work well.
TWhat do you mean no FFB? I thought that the Brunner pedals were giving FFB…like for their flight stick.
WWhat I mean is nothing from any games.
WIf the information was there it would be different. Hence my comment about Walmis' telemetry hack. But it's only for the joystick at this time. But I'm sure it could incorporate yaw effects in the future.
TWow, …I almost ordered the Brunner pedals and also given their price I would have been mad to see that they are not giving any FFB from the rudder etc…
In that case I will keep my MFG Crosswinds w/ damper and the Buttkicker Advance that I have attached to it…..and hopefully in the future we will have some FFB pedals from Walmis or some hack from his software for the Brunner pedals….
Thanks for the info!!!

WYes, I was disappointed at the lack of feedback also. They aren't cheap. But I feel it is just a software limitation. I think in the future a DIY solution could easily surpass them.
Tyes maybe send email and emails and emails etc…to Brunner…At this price point they should implement the FFB in their pedals. But having lived and worked in Switzerland I know how fast they implement changes unfortunately. Their business is also more B2B oriented as B2C so that their business customers are more important to them. Anyway I hope they will implement the FFB in their pedals or even better Walmis makes a hack for these.
KI’m really hoping for a clever Walmis motor to crosswinds adapter. I can’t figure it out yet, but that would be a very quick path to an amazing system. Overall I prefer the form factor of a TPR but the crosswinds offers such excellent value mechanically, if a way to retro fit with a motor could be made it would be super slick.
TYes 1000% correct!
SCables!

Pare toe brakes possible too?
P
I wonder if it could be done, if load cells on the toe brakes would be just as good as ffb? even a cheap dampener mod would make these feel better.
AHegykc of Replika gear used to sell these kits.
A3d printed pulley in place of damper mount, attached with the same screws as the damper adapter, perhaps?
Motor front or aft of the fulcrum as required.

Scurrently with xpforce but looking forward to the msfs version of telemFFB
Si posted a short video and parts list a ways back here https://discord.com/channels/965234441511383080/972180323787997255/1054645204931588177
toe brakes are still handled by the pedals usb/springs/pots

Poh yeah sorry forgot about that, this is so really very tempting, is it running on it's own as a separate device or is it connected to the a joystick base?
Si use the rhino ffb for pedal position, the original pedal usb i ignore the position and just map the brakes in game.
Sso 2 usb wires going to them
Pah ok so the pedals ffb is going to it's own usb card
Syep, the kit card. if you got fancy you could use the 2 pot inputs for the toe brakes but would lose possible gain/other adjustment knobs
PI think the Rhino base has one axis unused on it
Sit shows 6 axes in SPAD.. rx ry rz slider etc but theres no physical interface for them other than the 2 pot inputs
Poh bugger, I was imagining having the rudder pedals plug into the base for their ffb & the old usb to pc for toe brakes
P& how do they run on the PC, just like any other kit or the Rhino? just using the VPforce software?
Si only got the kits, not the full rhino base. the joystick is 1 card+2 motors the pedal is 1 card+1motor. they use the vpforce software.
Pok this just gets better & better, dam it, I'm not going to stop thinking of this now 
PI must have ffb pedals, I must
Sand im making this for when i upgrade to tpr's
PYeah I'm not sure when I upgrade if I'll want the TPR, Virpil or the MFG?
Sthe cable-pull design would probably work on all of em, its just bracketry that would change
Pjust need a way to make my honeycomb yoke ffb too
N@walmis Question on the WinWing adapter - can it be used with other TM/Virpil-style bases to allow use of a WinWing grip? Or does it specifically need to be running your firmware to make sense of it? (Apologies if this has been asked before, I searched briefly but didn't find anything)
WIt should work, but limited to 24-32 buttons and no analog axis support
NGood enough for me, thanks!
Ji agree 100% if there was a way to replace the crosswind damper with rhino ffb as a proper kit that would be amazing
Jcrosswind is what i'll be buying as you said it just makes the most sense for the value
KI got my motors hooked up today just to test out. Such an amazingly simple process. I think I'm probably capable of building most of this on my own but @walmis has done such an excellent job from motor tuning, PCB design, and now I can see that the software side is equally as impressive. There is ~ZERO~ reason to try to redo anything he has done, it's just really well executed.
KOn to build a super simple gimbal just to have something to jerk around while I build the high end system. The laser cutter and 3D printers are going to get well used over the next week.
KI don't see an "off topic" but if you are looking for a laser that can cut an enclosure for your DIY Rhino, this on kickstarter is a good deal for the 20W version: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/elegooofficial/elegoo-phecda-laser-engraver-and-cutter?ref=user_menu . Of course kickstarters can always fail, but Elegoo is established. I'll be using the Creality Falcon 10W until the above arrives and while slow it should still be able to cut ply thick enough for a decent base.

TInteresting product! I use a lot my 3D printer and my cutter (Silhouette Cameo) and I don't see yet (!) a use for such product but who knows in the future ? LOL
BHello all, small question; i like to put myself on the waiting list for one but i have a question regarding IL2; does it work OK with IL2 great battle (out of the box) or does it need some 'thinkering' ?
PHey m8 the Rhino works awesome with IL2 out of the box! 
PYou get ground texture on taxi/take-off/landing. buffeting with gear down, flaps & AoA etc. the stick moves with trim, weapon effects like gun/cannon shake
Palso it gives a really good amount of resistance with the 9nm torque, with a light grip like the vkb Kg12 & a 200mm extension I get a really nice feeling stick, it's not like I'm using two hands & bending the extension when trying to pull out of a dive but still more than I got with my VKB gunfighter 3
but still more than I got with my VKB gunfighter 3 Palso you can customize the stick feel per aircraft if you wish by making multiple config profiles in the VPforce software & you can swap between them on the go, this lets you change the stick feel per aircraft if you wish to, making it feel lighter or heavier, even change the length of throw for the +/- of the X & Y axis in the software (the Rhino has a huge length of throw, I think like ~40°)
Bthanks for the explanation! much appreciated
