Oh man, I missed my availability email for the VKB adapter. I'm so sorry, and I've made sure to mark the source as "important" lol.

I hope the mk.3 VKB adapters come back in stock, I'm a little worried I missed my chance now the mk.4 released

How much will the overall height increase through the adapters (WinWing, VKB)?

Skurk Darren•12/20/23, 9:45 AM

Just got my Rhino. Surpassed my expectations by far! Got hit by a hefty bill for import tax but f**k it, it's Christmas!

PPikas62 How much will the overall height increase through the adapters (WinWing, VKB)?

Not much, around 2-3 cm

Ophelia•12/20/23, 11:07 PM

I’m reading the lack of change of my number as a good sign that everyone is in fact completing their order, which is awesome for walmis, and terrible for me

Bob Bushman•12/21/23, 12:29 AM

I believe he has to go through the list and update it completely manually so I suppose he gets to it when he can and it's likely as your number draws closer you'll jump a fair bit.

Reaktionslos•12/21/23, 11:21 AM

When my calculations are correct for the monstertech table mount + virpil joystick + 200mm extension + Rhino I have to replace the long aluminum profile with a much longer one?
Or is the rhino not supported with any table mounts?

Fr4Ged•12/21/23, 12:38 PM

you can buy a baseplate for the rhino from monstertech so I'd imagine it is supported.
looks like people are using long profiles that are supported directly with the floor. and the table needs to be sturdy etc.

Bob Bushman•12/21/23, 2:24 PM

Question re: thrustmaster grips. I understand I'd need to use an extension to mount them off center. Am I correct in my understanding that the 50mm virpil extension won't help with this, because of the design of its plug?

walmis•12/21/23, 3:07 PM

You could rotate it on the Rhino side of the connection

walmis•12/21/23, 3:07 PM

I'm quite confident some people here use the VPC extensions with TM grips on the Rhino.

Poor Yurik•12/21/23, 3:08 PM

Hm. I'll have to look at my Rhino to understand -- what do you mean be rotate it on the Rhino side? The 50mm extension is a hard plug rather than a cable

Poor Yurik•12/21/23, 3:09 PM

I also have virpil's 75mm extension that has a soft plug. Main concern is if I buy the hornet grip, the 75mm extension will likely make it so tall that it'll bonk the control panel in front of me

I'm extremely excited to see my order request email today after 7 months of anticipation! Is a throw limiter recommended when using a 200mm extension? What angle? I'll be mounting my Rhino to the floor on a wood block to get the height just right.

Mustang•12/21/23, 3:52 PM

I’d say probably 11 degrees or at least 15. I’ve got mine on a 150mm extension and the 15 is just right for my setup.

Bob Bushman•12/21/23, 3:54 PM

I expect to use one, but I'm unsure of what angle to go for, and since I do actually own a 3d printer I figure I could experiment with making my own.
