Poh thanks m8, where was that in the faq?
GI didn't see it in the faq, only published here in General by Walmis.
Pahh cool, is it pinned? might be handy
GTrue, I looked in the Pins but also couldn't find it there.
ASo beautiful!!!
BI'm happy to say I got #500!!!
I asked Walmis to sign it...

BWill have to mount it in a display case, and order another one then
Band he immediately stashes it in a warehouse to never be seen again
SInb4 its slips out of his hands the moment he gets his hands on it and it just shatters into a million pieces :gigakekw:
Jis there any problem/conflict in using the vpforce ffb stick with motion platforms (sending telemetry to more than one place at a time in DCS/xplane/msfs)?
Five seen a few ppl use it with motion rig so id assume no
Sworks fine in msfs. telemetry goes to vpforce, flypt, simhaptic, SPAD, littlenavmap, and probably a few others i cant remember, without issue

IWhat sort of wait-times are we at-at the moment?
Ias in, if I ordered now would I get it before the end of 2024?
FI have waited basically exactly 6 months so end of 2024 might be possible
Ialright that's an insane wait time
Istill tempted
I:((
Fstill shorter wait time than for Phantom and Kiowa Warrior
TWhich motors does the Rhino has inside?
2 x 86BLF03?

CRhino is mounted into the simrig
FNice setup, dude! must be complete at this point! 
CWeβll see. I have some goodies in my mind 
BYeah, I agree it's a bit vague, but it won't let me edit. I was wondering what length stick extension everyone used.
Fdid you get that aluminium thread mount or did you mount it on the standard one?
CNo, itβs the standard one.
CI donβt plan changing the extension too often. But I think about getting it.
MFYI if anyone is considering getting a simpit for the Rhino, Simfab has a mount for it now. Just added one to my "DCS" Simfab frame. https://simfab.com/product/vpforce-rhino-ffb-stick-base-bracket/
SimFab and OpenWheeler Officialmanager
This offer is for a custom made bracket kit to retrofit VPforce Rhino FFB base on SimFab framework. Stick base mounts on SimFab seat frame center tube. Bracket replaces and deletes the standard βcentered stick lower mount bracketβ. Kit has fixed height and no adjustment on seat base height. Overall stick height can be adjusted

PBeautiful! Which limiters did you get for this οΏ½οΏ½ ?
CThank you! I have 15 degree limiters mounted actually. But I have 11 degree as a fallback as well, but not tried yet.
Pjust do it, put you're name down, it's not the biggest deal in the world if you have to pull out when it's your time, that's how a lot of ppl jump loike 100 SN# all of a sudden, Walmis cleans up the pre order list. The Rhino is so worth it, if you do more than occasional sim flight & are serious about it & especially if you fly heli's in sim the Rhino is pretty much the single biggest upgrade you could do to your flight sim gear, seriously it is the best feeling base, the FFB effects are just a bonus, the ability to customize the feel of the stick per aircraft & do proper force trim in a heli it's insane!
Dwow. he's come a long way, I am #50
DI hope he increased the digit count, because my base only has room for 4 digits 
HPatiently waiting. was 724 when I signed up, but it is down to 441 now, Hope I get to see it this year, that would be awesome
HThere was only 1 big jump in the 4 months, otherwise it seems to be 1-2 a day but that seems to have slowed as well recently
OGuys what are the dials on the unit for ?
Just paid for mine instead of a brunner, over Β£600 cheaper plus import and tax costs on top
.
Looking forward to getting some real feedback from my rig, itβs now cost me Β£12k

Fone of the dials is a pot and you can bind various things to it. per default it is spring gain.
the other red button is a off/on switch basically

HAwesome
MI love that. Was actually talking to the owner when he was designing this (someone else asked for it, and he knew that I made my own) he went through quite a few variations, but eventually settled on doing it exactly how I mounted mine haha
