So guys, is it easy to switch between grips? Just curious.

Jjust as easy as any virpil or thrustmaster. Though, I'm not sure which grips you were referring.
TI meant software-wise, my bad.
TI have a few Virpil and Thrustmaster grips as well as a VKB Gunfighter
Jcan't comment on the VKB, but I know its possible. There's a drop down menu for grip type. additionally you can have saved config files. You can launch the software with the specific config file.
TNeat! Thank you very much.
HHow to check my my place in the queue to receive my rhino?

Hthanks my brother
RIs this the right place to look for the emotional support when you’re less than 10 orders to go in the queue? The #
support channel seems dedicated to hardware support and I really just need someone to hold my hand 
Man, super excited for my Rhino. Still got a MSFFB that’s survived a generation of gaming but keen to get something new that fits my shabby cockpit over sitting on my desk

BSo I just filled out the form. How do I know where I am in the queue? Any ideas on what the wait time is for new orders? I’ve heard anywhere from 6 months to a year?

IDoes anyone have a 3D model of the mount to attach the winwing f-16ex joystick to the gimbal?
OI'm currently using the 100 mm on my standard VKB base. I've got a 200 mm curved I wish I could use but the it just won't fit with my current setup. With the RHINO i just got (thanks @walmis you rockstar), I think i'm going to try to take out the guts of one of these and TRY to make a 50 mm. Or maybe bend the 100 mm if I can. I dunno, never tried any of this before so I'll learn as I go. Hacksaws and bending.
GQR4RIGS. They are 3D printed, very light and not cheap, although feels cheap. But is an option. They also have for winwing compatibility, but then the adaptor is installed at the base instead at the grip, causing stress on the adaptor. I am replacing the virpil Z (metal and very heavy) by the 150mm goose type from the photo. I still have mixed feelings using fhe same settings used with the Z one. Note that the 100mm version only has 25mm of offset.
ReBay has some aluminum curved extensions. Works well
Oyou guys are awesome. thanks!
Osince we're doing this, any suggestions on mounting this hog to dofreality p3? i've got something brewing in my head, but definitely open to ideas.
BCan you explain this a little more sorry. Is this an email? I’m not familiar with the format “VPforceBot !info”
RDirect message, on discord, the VPforceBot. Literally type the message:

BOhh, thank you! New to discord.
IWhat is your experience? would you recommend it with a Rhino?
LWhile it's not necessary for most, it suits my cockpit. I need a little bit of bend for my chair has no cut-out. I also like precision. The throw is ridiculous with it and I recommend using a 3D-printed limiter which takes ~ 50% away both ways. Order one from @walmis if you don't want to DIY.
LAnd remember Rhino kind of comes with an extension already.
SHave u seen those flightsimers on the internet? They got curved extensions! CURVED... EXTENSIONS!

SIts in the FAQ
TCurious, does Rhino make precision flying harder or easier? (Formation flying, AAR)
PI'd say it would help only in the sense that it is such a good stick, there is no sticktion, the dampening is smooth as butter the whole stick just feels premium, I went from a vkb gf3 base & when I originally upgraded to that from a x52 I thought it was the best stick base out there, but after upgrading again to the Rhino I found out just how good a stick can feel, plus you get the bonus of ffb effects, profile swapping etc. Also the Rhino has a huge length of throw like almost 44° total +/- in each axis so you have a huge range of motion to 'play with'. Hope this helps, as far as the Rhino goes it's easily the single best peripheral I have & I recommend anyone who enjoys flights simming enough to just go ahead & buy one, I seriously want two! After I do, rudders, yoke, collective I'd love to diy an even bigger motor kit! & if the winwing throttle coming out isn't really ffb & motor driven like the rhino I'll even consider doing a throttle, ffb is that good, not even so much the effects but just how good it feels, sry to rant lol, TLDR; Rhino so good, so smooth like butter, big range of motion, buy one!
AOn thing I will add though — generally speaking the rhino doesn’t work with axis curves in game (at least in DCS this is a no go, IL2 might be ok with native support). So this can mean that certain aircraft like the spitfire will require an extension or some practice to not overdo the sensitivity part. That said, most planes are not really an issue because the stiffer feeling of the stick often helps counteract that extra sensitivity

AGuys I think there might be something wrong with my MFG pedals. They are completely lifeless by themselves and if I step on them it feels like there's just a spring and a damper with even a little slop in it. No matter how much I try to slide the sliders in the Rhino software the pedals stay the same, I need to screw some screws or do stuff like that to make any changes. Also if I need to go into helicopter mode I have to crawl into my pit and pull off a spring, which is very annoying. This doesn't feel like how pedals are supposed to feel in 2023, pls hlp.
RSorry, new here… Apart from the troubles you’re having I’m interested in this. are you saying there’s a MFG Crosswind pedals mod to use motors and the rhino software to make them FFB/spring less? Got a link for this at all or all your own work?
AI believe he’s making a joke that he doesn’t have FFB pedals
AWalmis did tease us all recently with an MFG mod kit he’s working on
ROn re-read i see that now damit, well, to the drawing board with my own version then! 
damit, well, to the drawing board with my own version then! ASo there should be a light at the end of this tunnel soon for people with MFG pedals
ROh nice! Mfg pedals are stupid easy to add bits to so seems like low hanging fruit to me
RI take it people playing with the idea of FFB rudders aren’t expecting “actual” FFB as most games won’t implement that - we just thinking of adding some nice features to the telemetry software?
AIt’s artificial through telemffb I believe, yeah
AAt the very least, you could toggle modes to the pedals to have a spring, or not, or have much better damping than hardware solutions
VOn the fly switch between spring/springless is the key, along with the ability to fine tune them.
Anything else that can be achieved via TelemFFB, that's extra bonus

RYeah 100%. I mean as someone that basically only flys the F18 I’m getting a Rhino to give me “an awesome stick with no dead zone or slop”
RSo I’m all for just making something amazing and moving away from springs anywhere
RNext on the list is a VPforce conversion kit with my winwing throttle
