I’ve flown around with the A/P in Heatblur’s F-14 engaged, and the stick does move with the A/P!

HornetDRIVER•10/27/23, 3:34 PM

Still need to fly a coupled ACLS approach, but I’m guessing it’ll move with that as well.

Unsure if that transfers to other DCS modules, though.

The next step would be to try TelemFFB and see the difference

pffftt... here I was thinking this was maybe a big announcement about native FFB support for all their aircraft

blave549•10/27/23, 11:34 PM

I gave up on X-Plane years ago, after spending Golly knows how much time in several releases over probably 10 or 15 years, trying to make it fun. Nope. I will not waste any more time on it.

Dedlike•10/28/23, 11:49 AM

hey guys, i got a question, im new here and beeing trying to figure out roughly how long the wait atm is, acording to the bot there are ~550 more orders to go , and somewhere else i read that they manage around 20 Rhinos peer month, does that mean i would have to wait around 26 months or am i just compleatly missunderstanding this

DDedlike hey guys, i got a question, im new here and beeing trying to figure out roughly ...

PiNKSH!T•10/28/23, 11:55 AM

Hey m8, those numbers are right, ~550 waiting & ~20 per month, but that's not taking into account the ppl that have to or choose to drop out when their number comes up.

PiNKSH!T•10/28/23, 11:56 AM

This wait period will just give you more time to save up for the Rhino & buy other sim gear or build a sim pit

PiNKSH!T•10/28/23, 11:57 AM

Don't forget you have the option to diy with a kit from VPforce

Dedlike•10/28/23, 11:57 AM

certalny been thinking about DIY ing it

PiNKSH!T•10/28/23, 11:57 AM

& there's a lot of info on here for building with the kit, it also gives you the option to go with even more power than what the Rhino already has!

DDedlike certalny been thinking about DIY ing it

PiNKSH!T•10/28/23, 11:58 AM

it looks heaps easier than I ever thought it would be. So many ppl on here have files to share for the housing, gears etc.

Dedlike•10/28/23, 11:59 AM

i guess i will look further into the set

PiNKSH!T•10/28/23, 11:59 AM

I wana diy rudder pedals, yoke & a collective in the near future

Dedlike•10/28/23, 11:59 AM

i could live with about half a year - full year wait time but anything far above that are kinda hard to swallow lol

DDedlike i guess i will look further into the set

PiNKSH!T•10/28/23, 12:01 PM

PiNKSH!T•10/28/23, 12:02 PM

I'm not sure what the actual average wait time is, it might not be that much more, maybe a bit over a year idk, have to ask walmis he'd have some idea

Dedlike•10/28/23, 12:02 PM

i will have a better look at it once im home, thanks! for clearing it up tho

PiNKSH!T•10/28/23, 12:04 PM

no worries m8, all I can say is the Rhino is so worth it, total game changer for not just immersion but just overall feel, even not including the fore feedback effects etc. it's a really nice feeling stick too & obviously you can use pretty much any grip out there. Have a good one m8, feel free to ask anything else m8

Dedlike•10/28/23, 12:09 PM

yeh actualy, do you know if there is a list somewhere of all things i would need to buy/download(3d prints etc)?, as far as im aware the set only includes motors and some other basic stuff right?

DDedlike yeh actualy, do you know if there is a list somewhere of all things i would need...

PiNKSH!T•10/28/23, 12:13 PM

I'm not aware myself of a buy list, maybe some of the diy guys have put something together, maybe put a msg in there? But yeah the kit comes with the motors & the electronic usb joystick board with the vpforce magic in it, walmis specifically selected the motor's to go with his drivers & software, there's no noticeable cogging at all when these are running. Pretty much you need to make/build/buy the housing, gears & gimbal you also need the power supply.

Dedlike•10/28/23, 12:14 PM

i see, truly a DIY project haha, thanks again tho!

Number481•10/28/23, 1:43 PM

I’ve got the Apache grip on preorder. I was pleased to hear Helisimmer say it wasn’t overly heavy (at least not the pre production unit he’s testing). Just hope it doesn’t feel too toy-ish.

To @pinksht 's point, I ordered end of March of this year and was assigned #344. My unit just arrived this week and it was #230 due to all the people that dropped out of the queue. In fact, I jumped like 40 spots in the queue right near the end.

Tinman•10/28/23, 10:10 PM

Thank you for the heads up. To finish off my queries, are Winwing sticks supported? I take it via adapter? Lastly I understand that the default interface is for the Virpil one, I'm assuming adding a 200mm extension of the Virpil kind will be no problem?

Fierce_Fire•10/28/23, 10:15 PM

The default is virpil yes, and many used the virpil extension with it. And in the purchase document there should be a winwing adapter next to the vkb one

AndyHill•10/28/23, 10:54 PM

default is virpil / tm, winwing requires adapter (make sure your grip is supported), vkb requires adapter + box (make sure you have the right version of connector)

Oneill•10/28/23, 11:32 PM

Hi guys, just joined and ordered it, no reply about the waiting time though, and ideas on the length of time I can expect to wait?
