JLOL! I have been! I've been doing some re-binding, unfortunately. But I can say the warbird feel is incredible. The A10 I don't feel much but the feedback/resistence is real nice.
Aprobably suffering from a catastrophic case of w-f
JAlso, the helis don't give me much other than the trim
Athey don't
Atelemffb might, I don't have experience with it yet
JI was JUST reading that.
Aafaik telemffb should enable lots of different effects on all kinds of flying things
JI’ll try that next!
NReceived my Rhino today! Planning to use it directly with my f18 thrustmaster grip
NIs it possible to attach it with an angle offset?
WNot with the stock mount, it has the TM star pattern and fixed connector
NAhh ok good, had a spare virpil extension, fits perfectly now
N
NOk got it all working, first time for me using FFB, the amount of imersion it offers is insane. Now I need to try TelemFFB. Its just running the exe along with dcs as mentioned above, also dont speak git 
In those releases is it just general effects for all planes, or are there specific ones already supported?

JThere are global settings v over all planes, but you can config per type in the config.ini. Some aircraft already have their dedicated settings.
Nsweet thanks!
KYea! Another convert. Impossible to go back to even what we considered "high-end" before. Right now for DCS it would serve you well to understand how TelemFFB works and use it to tune to the plane you fly the most. For MSFS and XPlane there is XPForce which also allows you to tune all planes, but it's not that great... but it is cheap.
Nyeah, definitely have a look through the config.ini file. Most of the settings are pretty self explanatory and / or have a description which attempts to explain what they do.
NThanks a lot guys!
NIs it possible to change the natural centerposition? I’d like the stick just a little bit closer to me, basically just trimming it back an inch but have that set as mechanical Center.
Nyou can adjust the center point by moving the max value lower (or min value higher, depending on the orientation of your Rhino).. but that will sacrafice range of motion in the direction you are adjusting. Alternatively, some (including myself) have made custom offset adapters to get the stick closer without having to move the base closer
Sgrub screws on the pulleys on the motors tight?
KDid your calibration change after making that video?
KInteresting. If your calibration didn't change that essentially rules out all things related to the belt / gears.
KIf it were me, I'd try and take a look under the cover.
WIt's strange that it clicks on both axises. I can safely rule out the motors, the pulley could slip, but in this case unlikely, since it usually occurs only on one axis.
If you put back the large gears, hold each axis gear by hand and try to move the stick and try to get a feel for play/looseness.

KAre the big bearings shifting and clicking between the retainer rings?
NI see a second Potentiometer option in the settings. Is it possible to install a second Poti on the rhino base?
WYeah, there's a JST connector on the mainboard for the second pot
RWhat would you do with a second pot? How could it easily be utilized?
Amaybe if you want to be able to adjust both spring force and effects on the fly
KThere are a lot of options in the VPForce GUI, check it out. It's really helpful when dialing in an effect. You can have control of master for controlling everything and then specify the other pot just for the effect you are trying to perfect.
KFor the DIY crowd I personally wish for the second pot to be co-used as a limit switch so that when things like yokes need to calibrate you could do it automatically.
NAre you sure the “clicking” is not actually a “creaking”. I get some creaking in the joint between the aluminum square tube and the printed grip/extension adapter. Hard to tell from the video but my video of my creaking sounds similar enough.
KI get some creaking on mine too but it's not a real rhino...From your video it looks like the sound stopped when you took the top wood off? Is that true?
KThat's super important!
KIf you turn the gain all the way to zero, does it still click when you move it?
NSo I just drill a hole for mounting in the top plate and connect it, that’s all?
KYep, make sure your shaft and thread is long enough to be able to tightent the nut on top. I use a 10k pot, not sure what the real Rhino's use but 10k works.
KHmm... It looks like there is some motor action happening when when gain is turned down because the stick falls when you turn power off. Are you sure that the master gain was actually at 0%?
RHow would I add a second dial to control master dampening, like the current knob controls master spring ?
NThere’s 2 “pot” control settings in configurator. Only one of them is used on the rhino since it only has one pot. If you added a second, and plugged it into the 2nd input, you would just set whatever function you wanted it to have in the configurator.
RVery cool. Now need to find the same knob used for the rhino or similar.
NAluminum knobs are for sound equipments or rotary potentiometer, for protection and easy control. Pu interior is useful to avoid damage and for long time service. great decoration accessory for equipments.hese great looking knobs are high quality and precision machined from an aluminum alloy.

RWhat controller do I need to buy?
WHmm, looks like the large pulley bolts are not fully in. Also take note that 2/5 bolts are longer, those go the top-most position for pitch
WMaybe it's not seated properly
WDid you tighten these bolts?
W
WThese need to be "just" tight, since they preload the bearings
