SI'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.
MIβd say probably 11 degrees or at least 15. Iβve got mine on a 150mm extension and the 15 is just right for my setup.
BI 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.
RDo I need for a floor usage of Rhino any counter weights or base-plate or is it heavy enough?
OHoly! What number were you?!
OWoahβ¦ walmis you didnβt have to, but seeing that huge jump in my number is a wonderful Christmas present too!
BThink I started at 496 or something.
OIf it keeps up the way it is... I'm gonna have mine for my birthday next year, I think. That's pretty damn exciting
DMe too!!! Just got my enail as well.
LFix it to a base plate or chair 
's got force

ASomething like this if you donβt want to get a real mount. Was $30 in wood. doesnβt matter how you mount it. But youβll at least want something to support the force
MEvery once in a while, your number will jump. That's due to people dropping out of the queue
MNote that the jumps will usually be crazy like this, because the queue only gets updated for dropped orders every month or so
RAh
RThank you
BYeah I started a 496, I think what shipped (paid and got tracking today) was 317.
And I've currently spent 212 days waiting.
I wasn't wrong, it took me longer to get off my butt and clear up my workspace for a kit than a finished unit to ship

RThis looks feasible. Thanks 
DThanks man....appreciate it. Mine ran into a few FedEx delays. It says tomorrow, but it is currently sitting in England right now waiting for a flight. It's Christmas time, so completely understandable. I hope it is tomorrow, but if not I can wait until after Chrismas on Monday. 
SWow, yeah it must have been a big cleanup on the queue. I just went from 478 to 408. This throws my numbers through a loop as Iβve been checking once a week to get an average on how many walmis is cranking out! I guess I wonβt have a super long wait left, which is exciting.
DI moved up quite a bit as well in the queue. Kinda threw off my plans a bit...I'd planned to buy myself the new 57" Samsung NeoG9 Ultrawide...but now I'll have to wait until 1Q24 or the wife will get grumpy.

, yeah, I was certainly hoping to recover from Christmas a bit. Now I probably only have about a month for that. Not complaining or anything though!
DMine showed up at noon today! When I looked at the tracking I noticed it didnβt leave until the 19th. I went from an unknown delivery date to a βwill arrive at noon todayβ. I am amazed it traveled that far in just 3 days.
HI also moved up in the queue, about the same amount from 359 to 264 with a new serial #. Do you think the AeroFusion Joystick (look up video on YT with same name to see it) FFB that had a pre-order price of Β£350.00 (back in September) had something to do with it? Though the ebay listing only shows 1 item sold; but maybe more were. Can't find much else about it. It looks like about 25-30 are made each month. However it used to be about 20 were made a month, so the pace has picked up over time for sure.
MDoes anyone have any documents with stick forces for the p-47?
MIs there a reference for stick forces of dcs planes at all?
Moop, found it with more google

SHey Guys. I Had too man parts printed and have now a duplicate DIY rhino thats only Missing some parts and the Kit. The Gimbal and Pulley are printed from PETG CF. The Case from PETG. Location is Germany. Will Finish it in the next 1-3 weeks since i muss some parts wich have longer Delivery times

3D print files, parts list and instructions to build a DIY version of the Rhino FFB Stick base using the VPForce motor kit - GitHub - protomaker964/Rhino-FFB-Clone-3D_Printed: 3D print files, parts...
CI went from #0752 to #663 with 438 rhinos to go before me to 345 since yesterday. Thatβs great!
Fnice. I jumped 87 slots as well.
SDo I need any adapters or anything to use the virpil grips?
SI actually think the Aerofusion is great, its awesome to see some low cost FFB flight stick options, i think we are witnessing the dawn of proper FFB in flight simulation. But theres no doubt that the Rhino looks, and clearly is, a much better unit. Hence the price difference
MFor someone who does not have pedals yet, what would be the best choice between the Crosswind and Virpil Ace pedals to install an FFB kit?
RI would like to place the Rhino on the right side of my chair (floor placement). What do you guys think?
Is it still comfortable to steer?

RHINO #0319 Has Shipped!BCrosswinds are all in all great, I have had mine since 2017 and they feel like new.
I have added a damper kit and that was all the update I needed.

Dgoing a little deep in that rabbit hole..
BMust be wrong, wasn't sourced from war thunder forums.
ε18 and 16 has some numbers in the manual. also some details are available in some NASA flight testing doc
BThe 16 is as disconnected as it can get as it relies on force sensing and not positon.
εprobably they just chose to buy kits and DIY, or have changed mind, or missed the email, or forgot.. It seems AeroFusion has just started the business and still put the main focus on home market(CN)
εtrue, unless one day Mr.Walmis can perform his black magic again and add force sensing mode to VPForce
BWould be nice, but unfortunately a force sensing gimbal would be the only thing the rhino can't do.
Guess I still need to get a realsim..

εactually Walmis once said it's technically possible..and the aforementioned AeroFusion is planning to implement it on their advanced bases, tho not sure how good it will be
BHey I'll happily be wrong
