I have a question im curious to see if anyone can answer. I am a few builds away from getting my rhino and I currently have winwing. I’m thinking of getting a vkb gunfighter with the vkb adapter for the rhino. My question is do I need to purchase anything else from vkb to make the rhino and the vkb grip work as a whole? Hope this makes sense lol.

You will connect your grip via adapter to a VKB BlackBox, Rhino is not connecting to it directly (like it does for TM grips).

You will receive the invoice via mail and via vpforce bot once your number is up and you have confirmed that you want to get it

I got my option to order, filed in the form and payment sent same day as the unit got shipped.

Was about 7 months waiting though.

HHawkeye Any ideas on how I could mount the Rhino to this?

Tinman•4/14/24, 9:05 PM

If you can slide the horizontal mounts to your Virpil, you can just drop in your Rhino the same way. Worst case, you need to drill new holes.

@mark turner I may be wrong ..still experimenting...but unless you select sticky...those effects will be turned off as dcs ffb takes over?

PiNKSH!T•4/15/24, 5:30 AM

hey m8, one way to mount it at least until you get something made up for it is to get plywood put on the floor under the pit, have 4 holes in it & use some nut & bolts to attach it. I'm doing this until I make something up.

CCol. Sanders I might have some doubts 🤔

ReapDaddy•4/15/24, 3:20 PM

No doubts here. I have two of them, one for my orion2 with F18 Grip (WW200G75) and the other for my Virpil CM3 and TM Cougar grip (250G75). Both have performed flawlessly. Luckily I also have the MonsterTech chair and center mount so swapping and adjusting the height/position is a breeze.

Spelljammer1•4/16/24, 10:30 AM

do their TM extensions feature rotating connector? hard to tell from pictures alone, and the cable does not extend.

SStryker990 anybody got experience with QR4rigs WW stick extensions on the rhino?

Spelljammer1•4/16/24, 10:33 AM

I have them, always find them difficult to perfectly align (kind of depends how the threads catch). but the angle is great for the F16 grip.

Is it possible to increase just pitch resistance? ailerons seems to have more resistance than elevators, so want to increase elevator resistance, DCS warbirds. What setting will help achieving this?

walmis•4/16/24, 12:24 PM

You can do this in spring gain mapping tool by making a steeper curve for the elevator axis, but overal DCS controls pitch/roll FFB

I/JG7_Moto•4/16/24, 12:26 PM

Is that here?

I/JG7_Moto•4/16/24, 12:27 PM

I should go above 100 on pitch? or reduce aileron? should use adaptative centering?

I/JG7_Moto•4/16/24, 12:28 PM

what about saturation? anything there that can help?

walmis•4/16/24, 12:34 PM

Yes, steeper curve means more resistance

Spugzitze•4/16/24, 12:44 PM

Hi guys, I am considering to buy a Rhino. However, I do have a few questions which I'd be happy to get an answer: 1.) I am using a CM3 base with all metal gimbal and extension and a hall sensor. It's very precise. How does the Rhino keep up with this (being mainly plastic and I think it has standard pots?); 2.) what are long-term experiences with precision?; 3.) how loud is the fan, once it's turned on?; 4.) is it possible to vibrate with every turn of a heli rotor.. like 387 rpm? 5.) Will I be happy with it in 10 years?; 6.) is a all metal construction planned?

Wwalmis Yes, steeper curve means more resistance

I/JG7_Moto•4/16/24, 12:48 PM

Something like this?

I/JG7_Moto•4/16/24, 12:49 PM

Or this? Sorry the questions but I have not much of an idea.

walmis•4/16/24, 12:50 PM

You can click apply and check the feel you prefer

walmis•4/16/24, 12:50 PM

but yeah, the general idea is correct

I/JG7_Moto•4/16/24, 12:50 PM

Ok, thanks

MashedPotato•4/16/24, 1:15 PM

The Rhino does not use "standard pots" for it's axes. It uses a pot, that is programmable to control gain or other settings. The axes are run directly off the motors, which gives them insane precision, on par with if not beyond a hall sensor. 2. I think the longest term owners are about a year, year and a half in, but these things are built like tanks. 3. the fan is small, so it's whiny more than loud, but I've never even heard mine turn on, you really have to push the unit to make it activate. 4. You should be able to set something like that up with TelemFFB. 5. If you're happy when you get it, you'll be happy down the line, I still own a CM3 which I use for HOSAS, and I would never dream of going back to using the CM3 for my main gimbal. 6. Probably not. These things are already beastly in lighter materials, and quite costly. Making it out of metal would increase weight and cost significantly, while providing no real tangible benefit (outside of all metal style martketing. The parts the count (the motors) are of course made of metal.

Fierce_Fire•4/16/24, 1:44 PM

The only thing that might be beneficial to be metal is the gimbal and the small pulley, though only when using the strongest motors.

Fierce_Fire•4/16/24, 1:46 PM

Also to the original commentor, keep in mind the gimbal is on ball bearings, so the 3d printed parts are only structural and I believe walmis said he has yet to hear of one break outside of some initial ones

Spugzitze•4/16/24, 1:47 PM

I'm not worried about breaking it, but about play over time. But anyway, I'll find out myself.
