actually have used one before - and while the mongoose has more buttons and is excellent want to give the f18 one a try - question was more how well it works with the rhino (as its heavier than the mongoose) and other grips which may be an issue as using the z extension with it....

It works fine (I use the heavy TM F-16), though some more balancing adjustments will be needed using the software features.

I’m down to 23 to go and just got the email today asking me to complete the order form with any required accessories. I guess I’ll get an invoice to pay fairly soon.

Ice•3/26/24, 6:36 PM

Could anyone share some pictures of how they have their Rhino mounted?

Ice•3/26/24, 6:36 PM

Trying to get ideas of how I'll mount mine.

Ice•3/26/24, 6:36 PM

Ideally looking for a low cost DIY modifcation of like a cheap/standard chair.

Number481•3/26/24, 6:37 PM

what do you have today and how do you have it mounted?

Ice•3/26/24, 6:38 PM

I don't have anything yet. I'm 40 spots away from getting mine. Just looking for some inspiration/ideas of how to get mine mounted. I was thinking of taking a cheap wooden chair from like Facebook Marketplace and cutting out a notch for the stick and an inch off the back legs to lean it back a hair. Then make some brackets to mount to the chair that will hold the stick base.

Number481•3/26/24, 6:44 PM

I mean.. there's always this work of art (i mean that sincerely) 📃general

Check out #

showcase and #

diy-builds , you might get some inspiration from what other people have done.

Myself, I had a virpil base on a desk mount, so I modified said desk mount with a 2x4 and a few pieces of plywood (I've since replaced the little legs with a plywood box that gives it much more support) 📃general

does it have decent FFB support? either from the game or from Telem?

MSFS certainly is part of the TelemFFB but I have not yet tested it. have had my Rhino just for a few days as well.

highvision•3/27/24, 12:41 AM

Yes, I got an email notice as well as a notice from the VPForceBot. So no worries about missing your spot, you have 10 days to respond or lose your spot. I suggested much faster response soon as you get notice. It was less than 12 days from first notice to tracking number, as I moved several spots up right after getting notice. Being my serial number changed.
