That sounds so beautiful!! Can‘t wait trying it myself!

IDude it's just insane.
IIt's more than your imagination can make of it. You'll understand when you try it.
II wish I didn't have to go to work. I'd sit here for hours just flying the Huey.
CDon‘t spend your time with things like work….do the important things. Fly the Huey 
MPost the hog pics! :p
MLet’s gooo. Now to get it set up
PI'd love to see these settings so I can save them away for when my rhino comes one day 
Bwhats the deal with dcs f15e strike eagle? stick is limp
MNeed to download the VPForce viagra plugin
BMate! You are a deadset MacGyver! It’s a crying shame your wife makes you sim in the laundry though!! 
IIHeres me doing an okay hover and some level flight with just 2 fingers pinched on the hand stop
MNice! ole boy has his hands/feet extremely ready to take over that close to the ground lol. Does he relax a bit more when you get a few more mistakes higher?
IHe's just always ready at the controls. He actually said I did great lol. That was a huge compliment
IThe hover he defintely was giving some corrective input, but the level flight portions hes just reaching for the trigger to talk on the ICS
MThe fact he doesn't actually engage the controls (much) that low is a big compliment in itself. By the looks of it hovering really seems like 'riding a unicycle on a basketball' might not be that exagerated :p
IHovering definitely is not easy.
II attempted 3 hovers, my second was pretty decent. First and third I handed the controls back when things got a little outside the comfort zone
II mean the whole time I was in a state of pure fear and excitement. Tons of fun
IAlso he was the one that told me to use 2 fingers as a show of just how easy it is to control
WHey, I’m interested in giving this base double duty, centre with extension, and side stick without.
Was looking at the QR4rigs quick release for ease of moving it from two different mounts, but one concern is the durability of the grip screw mount on the Rhino base itself, it’s not metal like Virpil’s bases right, so I wonder how it’s going to fare from changing grip/extension on and off now and again?

MYou can buy or print replacements of that piece however an aluminum upgrade of it is in it's final stages before being available so metal will also be an option for that.
WGood to know, thank you. If that’s available by the time I’m at the top of the list I’ll probably spring for that.

Ljealous AF for your experience, thanks a lot for these insights mate. By all means share more - DCS Huey is still my favourite despite it being old (not unlike myself lol).
Did you use force trim and did your friend ever turn it on during cruise? If you did how stiff is the mag lock can you move it at all?

ISo, he turned off the force trim pretty much as soon as we started flying. We used the friction settings on the stick in the helicopter to get a little bit of hold and resistance but that’s it.
IWith the friction in the software set to about 20-25% and force trim turned off, that’s about what the real one felt like.
IBut of course you could change the friction setting in the real one, but that’s where we had it set when we did my flight.
II only felt what it was like with force trim for a brief moment, but with spring force set to about 60% and force trim turned on in the software, that’s about what I remember
II fly a warbird in real life, flight simmer 25 years, love the Rhino, but my only complain with the Rhino is as follows (maybe its just settings) What setting can I use so the controls get a lot more resistance when I go at high speed (DCS warbirds) I know it cannot get as stiff as in a real warbird, but the difference of resistance between slow speed and high speed could be more noticeable, is there a setting that can help achieve this? Also I notice the ailerons get pretty ok resistance , and the elevator has kind of a mushy feel, where I need to pull backwards a lot and does not have as much resistance compared to the ailerons, IRL it is instant and there is no mushy feel at all.
WNext versions of telemFFB + Rhino firmware will be able to realize this feature more dynamically. Currently you can increase spring gain overall using the spring gain tool:
The curve in pic increases the spring gain to 200%, for example. Beware: Too much gain will deteriorate the feedback loop stability.

CYippieh!!! That‘s my Rhino!
IThanks, but if I increase the spring gain, will it still have not too much resistance at slow speeds?
WIt would have double the resistance of the previous feel
IBut will double the resistance along the full range? from slow to high speed? to me slow speeds resistance is spot on, dont want that to get stiffer
WThat's the only workaround currently, to get more dynamic range we'll need to add spring stiffening to telemFFB
ISo that is in the plans for next Telem version?
WYeah, it's on the roadmap
N2 Weeks (TM)
IAwesome, that would make a ton of difference and add realism
ICant wait to try this out
MDCS bug, not limited to the strike eagle, the only way I've found to fix it is restarting game client
MHello everyone. My number is close and I'm trying to decide whether to purchase or not. I've decided that I'd like to continue to use my Puma X controls. Has anyone been able to figure out a way to mount the Rhino on the Puna frame and use the Puma electronics for cyclic, collective and pedals?
WDo you feel like the Rhino needs more power? It’s the only thing I’m worried about currently.
WOther options are coming that offer higher powered motors.
IIs not that I feel it does not have enough power, if you increase spring gain it gets stiff, but across the whole range, even at slow speeds, seems to be the next version of Telem will take care of it.
MThe Rhino has a ton of power as it is, as the other dude said, it just needs a better force curve with warbirds. But Walmis and Number481 are working on that now.
The amount of force that the "other options" are advertising seems downright dangerous, compared to sim racing peripherals. Like wrist breaking if the aircraft does something unexpected or you forget to let go in a crash, or there's a loss of telemetry levels of dangerous.
