BSounds good, I'll give a hand at printing a new mount myself and order the aluminum one.
I'll assume you can take the order and send when able ?

SThanks for your input. So the reason why I ask about this plane specifically is that the FFB for F14 in DCS was touted to be the best even before we were all saved by TelemFFB. From your sentence I do not quite see how would TelemFFB differentiate between F14 (non-fly-by-wire) and F18 (FBW), but presumably that is integrated in the flight models themselves?
Okay, I guess the next step is to learn how to create per-plane profiles for MSFS.

Cis there a way to get one put aside and sent at the same time as my MFG pedal conversion when those become available?
MtelemFFB (for DCS at least) does not run the actual FFB, that's handled by the sim itself. TelemFFB runs the additional effects that can be provided through the motors, which are not provided by the sim.
MFBW FFB is (depending on jet) kind of just like running the Rhino in spring mode, the hornet at least has a little bit of realistic tension gradianting when it's commanding G though, which ime makes it feel better to fly on than a traditional gimbal
SThanks very much for this clarification, indeed I was wondering what does TelemFFB actually add.
Sin MSFS the only effects available are the ones from TelemFFB, right? because official support is not in game yet.
MI believe so, yes; but do not own MSFS
SI second this if possible, would like to do the same. Happy to pay for it in advance so it's less of a set aside and more of a delayed shipment 
BThanks @J2_NobiWan . This news gives me great pleasure. Almost as pleasurable as your excellent software 
FHey @walmis is there any news in the kit for virpil pedals ??
P@walmis What are the FFB kits you are going to sell? I saw that you have already released the MFG kit, are there any others?

MHey, does anyone know how long the backorder is for #13 on the store? This little guy

BWalmis said yesterday he expected them in first week of may. So couple of weeks 
MOh, that's not bad! I already put myself on the backorder list, I'm getting this regardless if I can get my virpil on the base or not. There's no way in hell the 3d printed version would survive a 2nd joystick mounting in the future
Ait depends on if the definition of two weeks is the same in hardware and software industry

WWelp, let’s see what the hype is about
Cnot fair
ODoes he do a feedback rudder pedal kit for the MFG crosswinds ?
PGoogle Docs
Enter your details here, so you can enter the queue for the VPforce MFG FFB Kit.
Once the queue progresses I will get in touch with further details.
The kit contains:
86BLF03 or 86BLF04 FFB motor
Large gear + 14T motor pulley
Belt HTD5M 400
Motor mount + fasteners
Assembled wiring
Toe brake connectors to VPforce board
Power supply - 19V 9.5A 18...

OHoly shit. Looks like next weeks wages are also gone lol. Thanks
Jwhats the difference between 86BLF04 and the 86BLF03 motors? if you buy without the motor do you need anything else besides the motor to complete the retrofit?

TCan the FP force rhino replicate the pitch detent of a center stick?
TNot to the same extent, but a measurable increase in force before allowing futher stick movement
JWas there a kit supposed to be made? I printed a kit for mine and it works amazing.
MThat is one thing that FFB doesn't do very well.
MYou can edit the gain curves in the software, but too much opposing force in the middle and you'll get oscillations.

TOk thank you
OGuys this is going to sound stupid but does the kit assembled just bolt onto my pedals I already have. ?
It says full assembled kit, my MFG crosswinds have the damper fitted.
Do I have to remove it all and fit the kit ?

WYou wouldn't need a damper anymore, FFB does the damping
IWhat exactly does the FFB pedals replicate in airplanes? The braking ? and do pedals get stiffer with speed? a bit of rpm vibration?
IWhat about toe brakes, any resistance added to them? Usually pedals are too soft and hence makes braking too sensitive.
AI don't think there's any ffb in the toe brakes in any design I've seen
Bwouldn't it make more sense, especially engineering wise to use a loadcell for those ?
IIn real planes the stick is what gives you feedback in flight, but rudder pedals not much, they get stiffer with speed, that is all, no pedal buffeting when stalling, only stick, so if they can have the toe braking power giving more resistance that would be great, but feeling the stall, and many of the other effects in the pedals would be a bit unrealistic in the case of airplanes.
Myes, some high end pedals have load cells on the brakes, like https://www.virtual-fly.com/shop/controls/ruddo-plus

Pthe hype is real, what do you fly?
WI fly ‘em all man - but mostly helicopters and warbirds. Cold War aircraft quite a bit, less so modern stuff.
MI'm the same and focus on older gen modules vs fly-by-wire. FFB is all that and a bag of chips. First thing I noticed was the visual/audio queues built into DCS to inform the player they are pushing max AOA etc occur later than what you feel with FFB. It isn't a huge gap, but it is significant. It is something you have to feel (no pun intended) to understand. I have been inefficiently over controlling modules for literally decades thinking I was riding the edge only to discover I was robbing myself of turn performance the whole time.
WThat’s a good point - honestly the audio/visual cues in DCS seem to be ‘hey that’s beyond the limit’
