Anyone know if the TM warthog works? I understand it fits virpl bases.

Myes, all the buttons work just fine
HYou should have gotten an email from Google Forms labeled "VPforce RHINO Preorder", look inside that to see the form you filled out. Then maybe in 18hrs or so you can check the VPforceBot and type in "!info my.email@gmail.com" etc to see the response, it will show your order number reservation date and serial number assigned. You will be contacted I believe when yours is close to being built, i.e. pay for it, and confirm shipping info I'm guessing.

MHey guys, does anyone know if ffb with the rhino works with Prepar3d? Also xplane and fs2020z
DYes, though I'm not sure how well it works in Prepar since I don't use it.
SInvoice paid, can't wait to get this baby home ! 
HJust had a quick go in DCS with a bit of a bodged setup for the mount till all my parts arrive (hopefully tomorrow).
Had a little fly in the P51 as that has always been a favorite of mine when flying in DCS with the MSFFB2. It felt good, but different. I have a couple of daft questions. With the sidewinder, the force (or spring gain I suppose in the rhino settings) was a fixed variable in that it never really needed changing. Whereas with the Rhino and the gain at 100, it appears to be too strong to an unrealistic level! Can any of the rhino owners relate to what I'm saying and I'm keen to know what settings are being used to give that feeling.
I'm slightly confused and mesmerised with all the settings as to how I can get a realistic feeling setup. Will I need to keep changing settings depending on the sim and the aircraft as well?

SWhen you put in to get on the list do you get a email or something to tell you what spot you are? i put in like a week or two ago and i haven't heard anything

faqSAhhh ok thank you must have missed that
S468 rhinos to go lol
Mhey guys, I have a extension pvc pipe and a metal real aircraft joystick. With the CLS-E theres basically no force. How much more will the rhino give me? also once I get mine can i put the more powerful motors in it or are they too big.
MReal aircrafts give 40lbs at 9 gs and I am just trying to get as close to that as I can.
FHello using ah-64 with adaptativo center the stick got very stiff and some time moves to another position when trimming, Does anyone have experiment this behavior too?
WI personally gave up on trying to achieve "real world" forces. Perhaps not important to everyone, but once geared up, I lost the ability to fly helis, as the static force became too great.
WIt also becomes very unforgiving on the design and any small slop becomes amplified. I also find the motors aren't great at holding centre so can feel a little "loose".
WThis design gave me about 8.3:1 with the 4.2Nm motors. I found there was a point where the extra torque gained wasn't worth the disadvantages, at least for me.
Mhow many lbs of force with that design?
Mthat design looks very clean and nice btw
WThanks. I think about 35Nm. I've put a luggage scale on the handle and I think it was about 14kg of force for full deflection.
WThats about 400mm above the pivot point.
WI upgraded the rose joints, as these developed play in a rather short time. This is one of the problems with higher forces.
SAgree, from past experience with race car suspension parts and building motion sims, I purposely steered clear of them for my stick and yoke FFB setups. They do allow a nice compact build though.
D@walmis sorry for the ping, but I just wanted to be clear, I am only after a WW adapter, not another RHINO 
WYeah, I ended up paying about $20ea for the rod ends I'm using. They seem to be holding up for now, certainly much better than the cheaper options.
WHarder to design without using at least one rod end though. Especially if you want it "compact" with these larger motors.
SAgree, so installed mine under the sim floor..

Jwow, that waiting list is getting long
Nnot sure I follow exactly the symptom you are describing. Can you elaborate? Does it only happen with adaptive centering enabled?
In general, for issues I have seen related to force trim in helicopters.. Make sure you do not have any curves in your axis settings in DCS and make sure your Rhino calibration is accurate in VPf configurator

HPossibly need to swap ffb axis in the dcs settings. Sounds like your force trim maybe trimming the wrong axis?
FYes it just happen when adaptive centering enabled, when off it’s all normal.

JFor the pre-built Rhinos, how long is the lead from the power adapter to the base? What type of power connector is used?
My Rhino shipped today, and I'm trying to determine if I need to mount the power adapter on my motion rig, or if the power lead is long enough to be mounted on my rack below the rig.

MWho knew that FFB would be so popular....goes to show a LOT of people take this simming very seriously....
SCan't wait !
NAssuming the supplier hasn't changed since mine was shipped in May, the power supply lead is only about 3'. But it is a standard 5.5mx2.5mm DC plug. I am using a 6' extension with a 90 degree end (male side) on mine.
BIt's almost like we are a bunch of 40 something, chasing a 20+ year old dream we've long given up on, mostly..
JWe're in a golden age of flight sim.
MI feel personally attacked!
BI just simply described myself 
Jgreat, thank you
WAnd likely 80% of others on this board.
HHave we met?
