I bought Virpil's 50mm and 75mm extensions for testing. I am using the 50mm tube with the 75mm cable. It is able to fit in there. It was tricky to make it fit but doable.

Thanks, never thought about that option. I bought the 7,5cm extension but I feel that is a bit too long.

@geezalbert - I just ordered a set of motors and the control board and it was 7 days in transit to the US after a few days while Walmis was waiting on the motors. Very well packed and arrived in great shape. “Just” need to get them hooked up now…

hcee.•10/16/23, 2:41 PM

Hi, I found this old discussion; is it currently possible to spoof Thrustmaster TARGET to think that it's seeing a TM stick? I'm using Home Fries's TARGET profiles and would be great if those would work with my new diy-VPforce stick

Spatz•10/16/23, 3:37 PM

Out of curiosity What are the target profiles good for? I never used target - I Have setup everything directly in DCS with my TM Stick

Jon (Bounty_V)•10/16/23, 3:38 PM

I also don't use Target. I use joystick gremlin if I want to change how my Cougar MFDs behave

Jon (Bounty_V)•10/16/23, 3:39 PM

I think the ONLY thing I set up in Target was only have 1 light on for one of the MFDs so I always knew which was 1 and which was 2 according to windows

f14billy•10/16/23, 3:53 PM

Exactly. With the 5cm extension the Y axis throw is perfect. Then I limit the X axis throw to 70% and it works great.

Wwalmis I don't really understand what you're asking here 😅

Have any of you mounted the Rhino to an Openwheeler setup? Finally got to put in my order and am now realizing I should figure out how I'm going to mount the thing

hcee.•10/16/23, 5:12 PM

the main advantage, in my opinion, is that Home Fries has put together comprehensive hotas profiles for nearly each aircraft in DCS, and a GUI tool for configuring them based on the hardware setup I have. It saves a ton of time when I don't have to set up the button combinations / macros myself. The quality and detail of the profiles is undoubtely also much better than what I could do if I started from scratch.

MashedPotato•10/16/23, 10:41 PM

Yes, kind of scuffed/need to spend more time getting it right.

MashedPotato•10/16/23, 10:43 PM

Basically have a customized bottom section that matches the TMWH throttle, rhino is mounted to an OW throttle plate, and I used the little bracket that normally secures the center stick bracket to hard mount the plate to the section that goes out to the rudder pedal plate. Mounting the plate directly to the center stick mount puts it a couple inches too high

moldy•10/16/23, 10:44 PM

Ok. I was thinking I would have to cut the post of the center stick mount to get it to fit. I talked to them about making a mounting plate with holes for the rhino. Did the standard throttle plate they have fit it?

MashedPotato•10/16/23, 10:45 PM

No, mine has a custom bottom plate that has holes to match the TMWH throttle

MashedPotato•10/16/23, 10:45 PM

Even if you drop the post, it's gonna sit pretty high, given how tall the rhino is

moldy•10/16/23, 10:47 PM

I was considering trying to mount directly to the part that goes out to the pedals, but there is a spot for a screw that sticks out there

moldy•10/16/23, 10:48 PM

Also behold my impressive DIY skills. The mockup does sit very high and I need to cut out more of the seat to make sure the gears don't get messed with

MashedPotato•10/16/23, 10:55 PM

The gears should just barely clear if you mount the front gear towards the front of your pit. I'll try to remember to grab a pic of how mine looks mounted on the bar when I get home from work and post it. That screw was definitely an issue, iirc, I shimmed around it while cursing it's existence

moldy•10/16/23, 11:01 PM

Forward/backward I can move that post to create more space. But depending on how everything sits I don't want the stick too far forward

moldy•10/16/23, 11:03 PM

Very interested in seeing how it fits in your setup

Mmoldy Very interested in seeing how it fits in your setup

MashedPotato•10/17/23, 12:54 AM

Not the greatest picture, but hopefully that gives an idea

moldy•10/17/23, 1:00 AM

Yeah that helps, thank you!

moldy•10/17/23, 1:00 AM

Do you mind showing how high the grip sits above the chair like that? Assuming you have the seat lift kit as well

MashedPotato•10/17/23, 4:58 AM

Little off angle, because the base wasn't powered, but it's at the perfect height to rest my forearm on my leg

Spatz•10/17/23, 4:01 PM

Stupid question but how do you guys turn the rhino off? Just pressing the red button? ... And leave the stick hanging loose?

AndyHill•10/17/23, 4:03 PM

I just switch off the extension cord and power off most of my pit, including the rhino

Spatz•10/17/23, 6:04 PM

The buttons should work out of the box for a TM Stick right ?

SSpatz The buttons should work out of the box for a TM Stick right ?

f14billy•10/17/23, 6:21 PM

Yes right out of the box. In the configurator I set the stick as if it was the vpc mongoost-50 so the hats can behave like hats or buttons. Otherwise they just behave like buttons. I let hat 1 (coolie hat) behave like hats and set the other ones as buttons.

Spatz•10/17/23, 6:21 PM

Strange - it doesn't work for me

f14billy•10/17/23, 6:22 PM

PM me if you want and I can show you my configuration

SSpatz Strange - it doesn't work for me

walmisOP•10/17/23, 6:29 PM

That's strange, could it be it's not making full electrical contact

walmisOP•10/17/23, 6:30 PM

TM grips are pretty simple, they should 'just work'

Spatz•10/17/23, 6:31 PM

I will try an reconnect it tomorrow and write in the support - I use a virpil extension

f14billy•10/17/23, 6:35 PM

Try it without the extension first. Maybe the extension cable is faulty.

f14billy•10/17/23, 6:38 PM

The only reason I set it as vpc mt-50 is so I can use the coolie hat as 8 way hat.

Spatz•10/17/23, 6:46 PM

Yes I will try - but it should work I used the same extension and same stick with my mongoose base and everything worked fine
