So F5 has a displaced neutral point - can we do that for the F18 as well?

Polack-1•5/7/23, 9:42 AM

what's the way here, I get that I can set custom stops, but what about moving the neutral point (not quite the same as trimming)

If that is the case that's lame af. ppl need to get back to ffb, it's so much better, watching those ffb sim racing pedals too just sorta confirms it, also ffb gar shifters too.

Here's one of the FFB shifters. Similar story to the Rhino in terms of how it is made and the scale of production and pricing

And here's a diy project: https://lebois-racing.com/new-srt-gearbox-v9/
https://lebois-racing.com/documentation-srt-v9-1-gearbox/
There's a basic kit you can get off of aliexpress for it (the important bits like the PCB)

YouTubeRace Beyond Matter

First drive in the future of Sim Shifters

This is the first active shifter with actual servo motor to unlock the gears slots only with the clutch and can be the perfect tool for polishing real driving skills! It can be used as Dog Box and SQ shifter as well and can be train for each individual car and open the gear slots in specific RPM window!

Another question: I don't know if I broke anything when installing Virpil stuff, but I think TelemFFB gave me FFB effects in Bf109 but I don't get any at the moment? Fw190 for example works without a hitch, but 109 has a limp stick throughout. I really need to try getting TelemFFB working with just the python version - for the moment I'm not sure how to install whatever dependencies it needs

Jon (Bounty_V)•5/7/23, 11:44 AM

my take on the WW throttle video is, it isn't hard to hope winwing does something more than basically just the same thing with slightly updated internals or just a F15E version.

Looking at the impressive and unique things they have done lately it has almost become commonplace to expect something amazing.

Jon (Bounty_V)•5/7/23, 11:46 AM

Viper throttle, joystick with haptics, force sensing, collective, a second generation of their entry level hotas, a front panel for the f18, these are all amazing things no other big company is doing for consumer level. Sure there's some one off stuff that is for enthusiasts with bigger banks, and for people who diy their own cockpits, but no one anywhere is doing what winwing is doing.

I can only imagine how long they've been working on and developing a successor to their throttle.

Man I'm thinking I should sell my Thrustmaster Warthog Throttle before it's rendered obsolete. I've got the new revision and it's nice, but FFB just makes everything better.

Naudiz•5/7/23, 9:21 PM

I would at least wait a bit and see if the WW throttle even is force feedback or if it’s just some fancy cinematography

Stoned Kakapo•5/7/23, 10:55 PM

As long as they improve on the new taurus, it'll be a day 1 buy for me, since I love the current one so much. I bought the taurus in early 2020 and to me it's honestly the best throttle on the market (or was in this case)

PiNKSH!T•5/8/23, 2:17 AM

Yeah 100% I wouldn't go selling anything or planing sim pits around the fact that the new WW throttle will be FFB. I'm likely just projecting my own wishes onto it, but, why make those throttles move like that at the end? if it was only to show the new set "coming alive" it's a bit misleading, it could be to gauge interest from the sim community, also they are known for doing a lot of f18 gear & one of the f18's features is auto throttle. Let's hope it is ffb to some degree, hopefully they make it.

Will3D•5/8/23, 7:58 AM

PiNKSH!T•5/8/23, 8:54 AM

Yeah I mean, why not? it'd be such an awesome feature & as they make a point of in the video, it was a very well loved unit so why not improve it & release a v2.0 & having the ATC feature work would be a really cool thing to add. On a half related note, I hope they release an A-10 throttle grip to go with the Orion 2 & the new throttle too, unless I'm mistaken the a-10 throttle grip is the same as the f15e too isn't it? I mean they really would be living up to their logo then, ultimate warthog killer then

there's be no reason left to buy a TM warthog throttle anymore.

PPiNKSH!T Yeah I mean, why not? it'd be such an awesome feature & as they make a point of ...

Will3D•5/8/23, 9:42 AM

Makes sense. They have also mentioned working on a ffb joystick for some time.

Jon (Bounty_V)•5/8/23, 10:44 AM

For future proofing I hope they do a few things with the new throttle.

Aside from aforementioned things it should have support for multiple throttle grips. Imagine having the F-16 throttle grip + gate on it? Or a COLLECTIVE grip. This needs to be a thing. Give existing owners even more of a reason to upgrade.

Jon (Bounty_V)•5/8/23, 10:45 AM

Also if they do an F-15E/Warthog throttle grip, I hope they work on more panel stuff that isn't just F-18. F-16, F-15E, A-10 panel stuff would be amazing.

PiNKSH!T•5/10/23, 3:48 AM

Hey m8, not too sure what you can do to 'get ready' for the Rhino. What you need is the VPforce Config software, also for DCS (soon msfs too) the Telemetry app will give you ffb effects for all the aircraft, you can tweak this further later, if I understand it right it only adds effects it won't overwrite any native ffb effects from the module. MSFS currently needs paid 3rd party software most ppl use XPForce though there are other options, the VPforce telem app is being worked on for msfs compatibility too, should be released soon. The VPforce Loopback app is also handy, if you have a grip that doesn't plug directly into the Rhino base i.e. VKB grip with passthrough adapter, or a custom grip that has it's own usb, you can use the Loopback app to make the sim see the grip & Rhino as one unit, can also use HID Hide too if you want to hide the grip from being seen by the game too.

PiNKSH!T•5/10/23, 3:52 AM

the DCS heli's force trim should 'just work' otb with the Rhino, just make sure in DCS settings you have the FFB enabled (obviously) but also special settings for each heli & make sure the force trim is set to default, not no spring & FFB, that should read 'no spring or FFB'. Trim in general should work too for warbirds etc. If you use a mod aircraft like the blackhawk you will need to add it to the Telem app config, but also in the VPforce config software you need to bind buttons for force trim in the 'Effects' tab

ju_caesar•5/10/23, 10:56 AM

You definitely do have an increased risk of shearing off the teeth with only 3.6 teeth in mesh. The number of teeth a belt needs in order to transfer the highest working force a belt should be used with to the pulley is about 6.
With some rough calculation your safety factor from shearing off the teeth, assuming you use a 9mm belt, is only 1.15.
I would certainly advise you to use an idler to increase the number of meshed teeth.

MattGoodman•5/10/23, 12:59 PM

Hi @walmis - Looking for a quick release mount for the Rhino and wondered if the screw dimensions were the same as anything else? I ask because the monstertech plate you supplied was for something else right? Maybe a large Virpil base? Or is it unique and the monstertech is bespoke to the Rhino? Thanks!

ah, good to know! I'll have to work something out then as it's all mounted to a 8040 alu frame on a yaw2 and need to keep weight down so want to swap out the rhino weight for a fanatec csl dd when driving. Been tricky to find a solution so far

Jon (Bounty_V)•5/10/23, 1:07 PM

MattGoodman•5/10/23, 4:38 PM

I'm currently mounting the rhino using the custom monstertech to a 4040 peice coming out from the long 8040 sides most rigs have as the foundation and that's working fine. Just wanted a faster way of removing it. I think Q4Rigs might have something, just need to dig down and be creative

Jon (Bounty_V)•5/10/23, 4:39 PM

Yeah since you already have it then you'll know exact lengths you need etc.

Are you sure that’s what it meant? They show the Taurus moving by itself, so I kinda took the new on
