MNot the F-16. The F/A-18 is tapped for two positions though
MJust remove that damn little pin connector with the two screws and rotate it. You canโt rotate the grip neck or it will cut the wires off the pinky and paddle switch. Trust me, I learned the hard wayโฆ
๏ฟฝThanks all. I want to use the Virtual Z-extension with the Rhino. I will look into"gently" rotating the connectors in both of them.

JI don't have a ffb stick, but one without any kind of spring or real damper effects. I find it to be quite enjoyable that way actually. If you don't want to deal with trimming perhaps just disable all spring forces; if you can't do without, use the force trim release while setting it down or hovering in general.
You should always just do very little adjustments with the stick when landing/hovering, as you otherwise over-correct and perhaps even start some pilot induced oscillations.

JI thought this was basically confirmed broken. Do you have recent experience with Xpforce working with the VPforce base in XP12?
SNo. Sadly not yet. It was just a tip I got from somewhere. Pretty miffed if it is brokenโฆ

VHey @wherenolarkflew,
So the last Shipped RHINO is #0199 on 2023-09-20
Average waiting time from preorder to shipped is 205 days, median is 218 days, max is 292 days
197 Rhinos are shipped in total

SHi all, Iโm about to finally order and receive my Rhino. Just wondering if i can get any mounting advice? I donโt have a rig and wonโt have space for one until early next year so itll need to be floor mounted or office chair mounted. Iโd like to use a stick extension if possible for more accurate movement. Any ideas?
FIve seen someone use a monstertech mount, and virpil/vkb options would work too i guess, but dont have one so cant say for sure
Fif you use a virpil stick you can add a z extension to get a curve in your extension which might help with fit
SCheck out the #
showcase thread here - scroll up a bit an you will see a lot of examples how people are mounting their Rhino - maybe helps you to get some ideas

JI use the MT chair mount, love it. I have the virpil z extension. Anything longer than that and I think it'd be a bit too much.
๏ฟฝWhat grip are you using?

Phey m8, you can also just put a thin sheet of plywood on the floor, under your chair & under your rudder pedals/feet that will pin it down then just bolt the Rhino base itself to the plywood.
EHi, I tried to check from FAQ but didn't have an answer. So my question is related to production amount/capacity. As we see from previous shipped Rhino the median waiting time is 218. With the current rate of Rhinos produced during little over month or so my estimated waiting time is little over one year. So the question is, are there any plans put in place to increase the production?

Dthat's a milestone 
BI mentioned this somewhere (here?) before, but you could cut slots into the board that the Rhino is mounted on that your chair's wheels could fit into, to keep the chair from rolling aroundl
Edit: it occurs to me that you might only need "cups" for two of the chair's front wheels. That would keep the size and weight of the Rhino mounting board down.

LHi @adam1220.! Some good ideas from others 
. If you want to put just a little bit more effort you could buy a 550 x 900 mm piece of MDF at least 15 mm thick and build something like this 
. It is meant for a remote working/gaming table and you can switch in about two minutes. It can be pushed around on small wheels in the front under the pedals, there's a handle in the opposite end. I think it's easy to build, if you buy the bottom plate ready-cut at your hw store. Rhino rests on two 280 mm pieces of two-by-four. Please ignore the black front panel, that's a bit more elaborate. And the collective mount if you don't 
.

A chair with legs made of metal tube is required, Ikea is full of them. 4 metal guides keep the tubular legs in its place.

SThank you all! Some good ideas
FA friend of mine pointed me at this project - he thinks it would be a good option for me, and from what I see I agree. This is a photo of my current spring-centering system: https://i.imgur.com/n4hDkbs.jpg

FAs you can see, it's a pretty tight space, but I think I can make it work - my question is this - what's the lead time on the motor & controller kits?
Mcouple days usually
FOk cool, thanks.
CI'm trying to work out what aerostructure this is? Can you enlighten me please. I can see piano hinge at the top

RI believe its the underside of an F-15C nose section, right below the stick yoke
MYep, F-15
FWell not RIGHT below, it's offset to the left (as you face forward). 
MHe has a YouTube about it, itโs pretty neat
Fthanks!
MThanks! I love seeing all the real cockpit parts!
FI need to get the damn thing done. 
Fbut...squirrel!
FI have a CNC machine build i need to finish first in order to fab the parts required to add the VPforce hardware.
FWhat sim software does the controller interface with? Just Windows FFB, or can you control it directly via an api?
MWindows 10. It basically just plugs into usb and has its own software
MAn program thingy
FSo basically whatever is the sucesssor to DirectPlay?
FOne of the things I need to be able to do is increase the stick loading by about 2lbs per G.
MYes. It uses direct x ffb and I know it works with dcs but I would use it in p3d and other commercial sims. It has sim connect so we think it works. Iโll be the first to test in p3d
MYeah you will need some big motors for that
MWhatโs the overall force at 9g max after?
FI don't know off the top of my head, sorry.
MNp. Let me say you will need a lot of welding and diy, but a turnkey solution is the cls-p brunner. It does about 50, and even more with dd motors. It costs 11k though.
MThe vp doesnโt have that much, it has some good force though.
