Pyeah sweet, going to bite the bullet on it, jbhifi have none in stock so going to order somewhere else with similar price
DOh shit?! Maybe I took last one
DYou cant buy online?
Pyeah but they have no idea when in stock again, just going to order somewhere else for close to the same price
DIf your near canberra, your welcome to try before you buy
JI have one as well, I really enjoy it.
JAlso, it can massage your booty if you ask it nicely.
JI'll have to add the HF8 to my wishlist
WLOL, know the feeling. I don't worry and just fly it with normal force feedback. It's centrally mounted also, so really nothing authentic about any of it!
AYup, screw authentic. I need to tune the spring forces and maybe add g dependant forces to make it feel more natural.

SI tried the HF8 when it was released and I didn’t care for it. I found it to be uncomfortable to sit on but I also own the Jetpad from Andre and that one is very comfortable to sit on. The Jetpad is still obtainable but you need to reach out to them via Andre’s website (contact us type link). I wound up returning the HF8 and plan to get a second Jetpad as a spare. The HF8 was also pretty weak with the vibrations when I tried it.(like very weak) and I had everything maxed for settings etc. Maybe they improved that part since release in some way. I had hoped that it would be an equal to the Jetpad so people could have a choice in terms of what to buy but at least for me, it wasn’t very good at the time.
DI never owned the jetpad, but the hf8 is comfortable and the Rumble can be strong, I turned mine down to 20%
HThe HF8 in a warbird will shake your teeth loose. I wouldn't classify it as weak.
BFrom what ive gathered there has been a fair bitnof advancement on the software and or simshaker integration with hf8 since initial release.
BHavent tried the hf8 or sim transducers (yet) but I did have some cheap ones on a recliner for home theater setup.
Was barely a 50watt amp and around the 50% mark it could make the recliner rattle around the floor like an old nokia on a glass table.
While I was in it..
Pointless but fun.
It also broke my recliner beyond help in less than a year

DI have a Sony amp hooked up to a transducer puck on my metal rig, works great. My puck setup does not work all that great on my wood rig, a seat based setup would probably work better.
DYay! My Rhino 325 has shipped!
BBarely had time to use mine but, it is almost mind blowing.
Not so much for the effects etc but it completely change how one consider trimming.

HHelo game changer
DI am truly excited to use it with the F-15E and Apache. Plus whenever the F-4E gets released.
Fhelos are just amazing with it
BI still suck in the apache but that's all me.
Fsmall movements my friend, i literally just give it little nudges that barely move my stick
BThat's not the issue, I turn already by leaning my head not by moving the stick.
Torque pedals are just nervous and main torque has a tendency to vanish in some cases and suddenly the pull that was to much just drops me out like someones mom jumped on the back of it.

BExcuse to build an ffb collective?
HDCS Apaché has a nasty tendency to settle with power if you don't keep a keen eye on that vertical velocity

64 is amazing with a Rhino. I learnt to hover it perfectly during the holidays. Before, I could barely land the thing bottom down. The manual p. 94 helped a lot too.LF-4E 
SHow does the Rhino work with the F-5E aileron deflection limiter?

HI have the same chair, and I made a custom wood base and mounted it to the lower cross bar. Then remove the middle cross bar and center mount.
BI just banged pieces together, so even more jank than anyone's I guess.
But got the height perfect.
But got the height perfect.
PCan I mount a VKB or WinWing adapter at the end of a VPC extension from Virpil?
BI would imagine so.
Fvkb adapter works
FI have a virpil piece and it fits just fine (I dont use it anymore cause I made my own extension, bye 50 bucks;_;)
P@tortorden and @fierce_fire - thx for the info
PRegarding rotary pedal trim discussions -- would it be safe to assume the Ka-50's pedals irl don't auto-center, but simply stay in the position you leave them?
PHere is what ChatGPT just told me.
Me: "Does the ka-50 have pedal trim?"
ChatGPT: "The Kamov Ka-50 Hokum does not have traditional pedals like conventional helicopters. Instead, it uses a co-axial rotor system, and its yaw control is achieved through differential collective pitch control of the coaxial rotors. Therefore, there is no need for pedal trim adjustments in the Ka-50."
Me: "Do the pedals in it return to center or stay where the pilot leaves them?"
ChatGPT: "The Kamov Ka-50 Hokum's pedals do not return to center automatically. The pilot needs to actively control and manage the pedal input to maintain the desired yaw position. The co-axial rotor system in the Ka-50 allows for precise yaw control through differential collective pitch adjustments, and the pedals will stay in the position where the pilot leaves them until adjusted again."
