MNot the greatest picture, but hopefully that gives an idea
MYeah that helps, thank you!
MDo you mind showing how high the grip sits above the chair like that? Assuming you have the seat lift kit as well
MLittle off angle, because the base wasn't powered, but it's at the perfect height to rest my forearm on my leg

HNow this is exciting! Can’t wait to take this thing for a spin!
SStupid question but how do you guys turn the rhino off? Just pressing the red button? ... And leave the stick hanging loose?
AI just switch off the extension cord and power off most of my pit, including the rhino
SThe buttons should work out of the box for a TM Stick right ?
FYes 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.
SStrange - it doesn't work for me
FPM me if you want and I can show you my configuration
WThat's strange, could it be it's not making full electrical contact 
WTM grips are pretty simple, they should 'just work'
SI will try an reconnect it tomorrow and write in the support - I use a virpil extension
FTry it without the extension first. Maybe the extension cable is faulty.
FThe only reason I set it as vpc mt-50 is so I can use the coolie hat as 8 way hat.
SYes I will try - but it should work I used the same extension and same stick with my mongoose base and everything worked fine

Is this the first step into AR/MR for VR Pilots? Newly developed software which should be ready for release soon enables you to see your hands and peripherals whilst in VR. Plus you can place them in your VR world to represent where they are physically on your desk or sim-rig!

SSorry for the confusion it was not properly connected, now everything works as intended - and the Rhino is wonderful 
WGlad to hear that it's working properly!

Abtw -- do we know if anyone at Heatblur has a Rhino? if not, i would be happy to help contribute to a fund to make sure someone there gets one 
NIDK.. unlikely is my guess.. but c'mon.. FFB is FFB.. sidewinders are a dime a dozen on ebay if your only interested in dev testing 
Aa sidewinder is not at all like a rhino
Aand the things you might do on a lower end device, may not translate well to a rhino
Nin terms of reacting to basic FFB implementation from DCS?
Ain terms of building an FFB experience that matches the jet
Abut it's also one of those top of mind things, by having one, they probably end up using it, and want to ensure it has good support in the modules they build
Ait's all a self perpetuating circle
Nwell, I often see developer responses to queries about FFB fixes and/or implementations as "we don't have a device".. which is more of what the spirit of my response was referring to
Aand the spirit of my trying to fix that problem 
WI do offer the developers of modules a cancelled spot in the queue, so if they want they could obtain a Rhino quite quickly. A dev from Polychop did reach out to me, but for some reason did not follow through yet with the order.
WAlso a Rhino is quite useful for developing FFB since it has the live debug view of the effects 
BI am a developer ...

DThe VPForce software makes up for the lack of implementation in DCS
Ait does help for sure
NNew TelemFFB update for MSFS bringing the often asked about trim and autopilot following feature to life. The features are fully documented in the Rhino manual (linked below) so I won't bore you to death with details here. Grab the latest version from #VPforce-TelemFFB .
Huge thanks to @smitty981 who was instrumental in brainstorming , testing, documentation and providing a good number of example aircraft configs!.
