The drawn power is almost nil when in suspended state, something like 0.8W
TWhen does the suspended state happen? I suppose it is after how many minutes of no data sent to it?
WAfter PC suspend/shutdown couple of minutes motors go into low power mode
AAt current electricity prices 0.8W is something like 500€/s
JThanks. I keep a dust cover over it when I'm not flying, so I was concerned about heat buildup over the course of a day working at my computer (i.e., the stick would not be in low power mode because the PC would be running). Probably a non-issue with no load on the motors, but it's easy enough for me to put a remote-controlled switch between the plug and the outlet.
BJust finished a twirl in the huey, and I hate to say it:
This thing makes my virpil warbrd seem like a grainy toy..

SI just got a call that my Rhino is waiting at home for me to get back from a work trip. Any advice for desk mounting? I currently have this cheap desk mount from Hikig but I believe it is too small for the rhino and wont come low enough, also need some advice regarding an extension as my seat has no cutout etc. really hoping to get to use the Rhino before I build my rig!

HBetween the torque and weight, you're going to have a tough time with those mounts. I side-mounted. Much easier.
JI personally bought the MT chair mount. Love it.
SFuck yeah, finally got my monstertech mount in. It was missing some bolts, but that was nothing that scavenging from my old virpil setup couldn't fix.
S
SThis thing is so fucking awesome. 11\10
Ssince the rhino is using motors i would assume it does do it but for planes that move the stick for trimming instead of trimming the control surfaces is that possible with the rhino?
AYes, the stick will move with the trim for those planes which support it
AAdded advantage of a chair mount is that force feedback vibrations make the entire chair shake 
Spog with the announcement of the full fidelity mig-29 for DCS im starting to want a rhino even more 
BYou could probably get two by the time they release it.
SIs it possible to use strain gauge sensors, and HX711 with 2x57BLF03 + USB kit directly or with an arduino .
for the real plane (JAS 39C Gripen) steers with force, and with ffb with values
The roll force increases 0.5Nm/° up to 7.8° left and right.
The pitch force increase 0.52Nm/° up to positive 11° and negative-7°.
Soft stop in pitch 11° and to hard stop increasing 0.8Nm/° to 15°.

DFedEx still says, "Label Created"... 
BMine said label created for over a week but Christmas was in the middle of that.
It takes a few days for it to reach the international carrier from his local

VHey @kitanaimonkey,
So the last Shipped RHINO is #0331 on 2024-01-05
Average waiting time from preorder to shipped is 215 days, median is 228 days, max is 407 days
326 Rhinos are shipped in total

SDoes anyone know if this is the wrong thread to ask technical questions?
原maybe try DM or @ walmis directly?
原I'm too interested about how good can vpforce simulate gripen stick tho..quite a unique stick
WHi, there's no need for strain gauges. The motors give roughly linear torque relationship with electrical current. All that's required is to calibrate the given spring profile.

MApologies if this is a stupid question, but has anyone had any success using a Rhino in X-Plane 12 ?
NAs a regular joystick, it will work fine. But, XP does not support native FFB and the TelemFFB companion software does not yet support XP.
Some folks may be using the (now defunct) XPForce software but I’m not sure it works with XP12.

MThat's what I feared. With XPForce not being updated that could be a problem.
Thanks for that.,
Thanks for that.,
原Hope one day VPForce can support X-Plane..it's where the FFB is needed the most..plenty of top notch GA, and Boeings/Hydraulic controlled airliner with artificial aerodynamic load feel systems, without FFB, they lose half of the soul
Maybe an in-game plug-in is needed to be wrote for FFB to work? I saw other company did it that way..
Or maybe shoot an email directly to Laminar Research talking about the issue? The team is relatively small but seems to be very passionate about making the simulator true to life..maybe they just don't know that FFB is arising and they could do better helping the FFB devs

CI want rhino
Myzhanping (the maker of the DIY F16) has confirmed on HOTAS/HOSAS/SIMPIT's discord the possibility to order custom grips with the amount of inputs (and also custom shape if we provide 3D data) we want!
He also added that the motherboard of the stick is based on the CD4021 series, which can have up to 118 button/trigger/encoder inputs!
@walmis can you confirm if the Rhino supports the CD4021 series of shift registers, please?
Also what would you think would be the best way to go if we were to order a stick made just for the Rhino in terms of connectors/hardware/software? (I don't know maybe it's not all relevant but I'd be happy to hear your thoughts on what we should do if we can start from scratch.)
Thank you!

DAs others have replied, I'm also hoping that xPlane (11 or 12) will soon be able to drive the Rhino stick, via the Rhino interface software. It's bl**dy amazing with MsFS, so would be even better with XP's handling.
I have a Brunner FF Yoke as well, and that works perfectly with MsFS and xPlane (11 and 12), with it's own intermediate software, so it can be done.
I also have the xpForce software which I've used for many years with a Sidewinder FF stick, but now just jerks it back and forth, and I haven't managed to get a peep out of my Rhino with it either. I tried emailing the developer, but unfortunately have never had any replies. It was quite cheap to register, but still a disappointment now to not get any responses.

R@_gunzablazin just a thought, but since the rhino is such a good basic joystick, I wonder if adding a software control for moving the joystick centre would be an easy win over full XP integration?
RWould allow the basic trimming in joystick rather than in game
R(If that would be a good compromise @match_stick @7hoshino?)
