What 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
Wyeah, that's good
Wso yeah, the gimbal should move freely when assembled, without the belt. It's hard to tell in the video above, since the belt is on
Wyeah, make sure you tighten it straight
WThere's also this bolt, that sandwitches the gimbal together, tightening it might help with cracking sound (usually on the roll axis)
WCan you make a pic from the top? And other angles?
WThose 5 hex bolts need to be quite tight (I set the electric driver torque to 15).
Btw did you put the fan grill screw under the gear? because it will touch the gear

WCheers, now you will know the internals too 
JCan I just say I appreciate you taking apart yours so I didn't have to, @dudeman8?
JNow I know what it looks like 
DHahaha. 1/10 would not recommend. I do have a new found appreciation of the engineering for this thing now
D
DThat was yesterday
MYou must be insane! No way I would take it apart.
BAnd my thinking is "someone must have put it together the first time! How hard could it be ?"
BOften times.
Hard.
Hard.
RHow many pieces did you have left over?
JThis is the real question
KDaggum.
KI built my own and that would terrify me.
K@dudeman8 learned that 800Euro for a built and assembled by hand Rhino is the steal of the century.
D@dudeman8 what was the fix? Which screw was in the wrong spot?
DI put one of the fan grate screws in the wrong place, which was causing the pulley to scrape against it
DYeah don’t take this thing apart if you don’t have to. I wasted a lot of time trying to put it back together
Syou guys gota do more puzzles or legos lol
Jthe first thing i noticed in that pic is the smiley face on the bucket
JThank you for being the guinea pig
JAs far as I'm concerned, @walmis put black magic in there and that's all I care.
LDaymn you, now I'm too scared to open mine to install a second pot for damping
BNot sure if this is the right place to ask, but my order is held up in customs here in the USA. It's flagged at FedEX as needing a form. How do I get this?
WIt might need this form: https://www.fedex.com/content/dam/fedex/eu-europe/resources/GB_EN_2021_12_master_pdf_NA_Electric_Motor_and_Generator_Worksheet_marketing.pdf
I'll submit it tomorrow. You can also try to call FedEx to figure out what exactly do they want (if not the above).
