Real 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 itβs all normal.

FAnd x/y axis are ok
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.

BI was JUST telling a friend this a couple days ago. With VR, FFB, MSFS, and DCS (sorry X-Plane) and the wide range of flight controls available, we are fortunate indeed to have the toyz that we have.

BQuite a long way from the ol serial port joysticks.
And having to choose between not loading joystick drivers, sound drivers or the mouse driver..
Wasnt really that hard, if I had use of my joystick I didnt need the mouse so much.

οΏ½I'm also looking forward to having the ability to use the Realsimulator F-16 grip! Do you have the info needed to enable that one in addition to the F-18 grip?
MThey use very similar firmware, and if the fix is what I think it is, it should also apply to the F-16
HWhat does it mean when my assigned S/N changes? This is because some people changed their mind and cancelled orders?
FI think so. Mine has changed a few times.
BMy serial has moved up by about 75 so far.
WYup, that was my intention as well. However I struggled to get the force I was wanting due to the longer extension. And then, as mentioned, it wasn't great as a heli cyclic. I'm rebuilding the base now, but I'll hopefully have something that is kinda half under the floor. Something of a compromise. Hopefully it doesn't end up looking like a dogs breakfast.
WIf I was building a cockpit dedicated to one aircraft it would be soooo much easier!
WIronically I have found myself flying the F16 in DCS, which of course doesn't even have a central stick 
SMy servos are installed in the Yoke setup at the moment, but remember the stick being more then adequate torque wise, even with the long throw.. I still have my Warthog stick setup installed for modern jets, as they are FBW. When I have the cash will purchase more servos and refit out the stick housing for warbirds, old jets and helis.
