ZWhat about modules that exist right now?
MI haven't read anything about other 2-seaters in DCS with both players using FFB. It is pretty small user base. I'd imagine thanks to the Rhino (and DIY kits), we will find out at some poijnt
ZOh sorry, I don't specifically mean with 2 FFB users. What if my friend has a normal stick, and controls for example the apache. Does my stick move in real life?
MFound a post where FFB effects are impacting the other player in the Apache...https://forum.dcs.world/topic/301666-force-feedback-problem/

Hi When I fly multicrew in the Apache as CPG, what happens is: every time the pilot (human pilot) trims the aircraft, i feel it in my joystick. Problem is: as CPG I use my joystick axis to operate the TEDAC camera and I don’t even have my joystick set to the aircraft controls axis in the configur...
Dcontinuing discussion around HF8 here @blave549
I find the software pretty simple
I find the software pretty simple
D- I select the game
Dthen I select the FFB effects I want to tune, I can select each of the pads I want for the effect and the % of how much I want it to rumble
Dand that's it, honestly I am not sure why you spent 1/2 hr on this, it's not rocket science or anything, it's very simple and intuitive. 1 example I have is landing gear, I only want it to feel it on my butt so I set it up like this
Dnoting that this only activates the motors on my butt and not my back, this acheived a very simple setup for me. I see no benefit to Simshaker Aviators as it doesn't offer anything over and above what this program does for me, my original statement was only simply pointing out that I would have liked them to add IL-2 to their software, as they already have MSFS, X-Plane and DCS
Fhey, has anyone table mounted their rhino? Prospective buyer here...I wanted to get some monstertech table mounts but not sure if theres enough throw allowed in that setup?
FSorry I meant the mfg ffb mod.
FIs that the aluminum replacement? Where can we preorder this ?
MYes, it’s the aluminum replacement. You can get on the backlog on the same google doc you order your rhino from
.Hey guys, quick question.
Is it really taking a year for the lead time to obtain the rhino?

TDepending how stable your desk is, but generally speaking, table mounts aren't enough unless braced to the floor.
.Holy pepperoni. I guess it will be my Christmas gift
FThanks for the information. I suppose I’ll shell out the arm and leg for a monster tech office chair…
MIn the showcase channel you can find some installations based on Monstertech table mounts, but with an added length to rest on the floor.
FAh, thank you I’ll take a look. I’m guessing they use throw limiters? I figure the throw would bump into the mount itself.
MA table mount just hanging from the desk in the air will flex a lot
Pit'll be the best christmas gift ever! It really is a total game changer for flight sims, especially with helicopters & warbirds due to the trim.
MYes, I use 15 deg limiter without stick extension, and with extension something around 11 deg is recommended
SJust paid for my Rhino and accessories, about 30 units to go. Finally something I am excited for! I really need this to cope with creeping burn out at lifework. Few question. So how long is warranty and how is it covered? Is it easy to maintain and self repair like my super old Warthog and Cougar (have early serial numbers since their release month/year, both still work). Where to download dims so I can start cutting and drilling already to be ready for its arrival?

Fmy bad, i thought they were the same. yeah thats the one i was planning on getting. anyone have experience with that center mounted to the mtsim office chair?
TYou may have to search up in the “showcase” or “DIY” sections but we had a nice discussion about those one day when I brought them up as a a joke and sure enough… a couple Rhino owners have them hahaha
They posted pics in the thread but it maybe was awhile ago.
It came up because I was building a custom flight chair and searching for the perfect base (which I ended up building anyway lol)

TSomeone said they have had one for over a year and loved it… actually used it for an office chair.
Someone else said you can get them to custom order and send the removable headrest so it’s easier to swivel using a VR headset…
Honestly at the cost and the reputation they are worth every penny if you can swing it.
Every single review I’ve ever seen is stellar and that’s just unheard of in this day and age

TDepending on your skills you can also DIY.
No matter what best of luck with whatever you decide.
If you wait.. that’s just part of the deal. Everyone who has an official unit had the same (or sometimes a longer) wait.
So think of it like a right of passage.

Fyeah i finally came up in queue after waiting 6 months!
FYou can search through the channels with the "image only" filter to speed up research if you're still doing it
FThat's how I figured out how I wanted to make my gimbal
DHi, I am beginning my proper journey into flight sim, especially helicopters, currently loving the Hype H145 in MSFS, I have lived in an area with a lot of aircraft, especially helicopter activity since childhood, I live very close to what used to be RAF Chivenor in North Devon, and have always wanted to be a pilot from a very early age, but sadly my eyesight prevented me from fulfilling that dream. So the sim is as close as I can get to the real thing.
I have been a sim racer for many years but I have recently found it to become somewhat boring, so I am wanting to spend more time flying than driving. I went on the hunt to see if FFB devices were available for flight sim in a similar way to sim racing, which led me to discovering this community. So hi everyone!
I am keen to learn more about the RHINO. I am currently considering my options for hardware, I currently have the Thurstmaster HOTAS joystick and throttle, while it is OK, I feel it could be a lot better. Currently liking the look of the Virpil range of grips and was wondering if the RHINO was compatible with the Virpril grips?
Thanks

FYeah virpil grips are almost full compatible to RHINO
DThanks for the confirmation
TI thought they were 100% compatible actually.
CI‘m flying helicopters with the Rhino now since a few days! And what I can say is this is just awesome experience. 
I used a TM warthog with a 40cm extension held in place after moving via steering dampers. This was fine as a workaround. Finally I went for Rhino and this is so much better. Force Trim with FFB is excellent!!!

BThe only difference between virpil extensions and thrustmaster ones is the virpil have loose connections with a bit of extra cables so you can rotate the grip as needed...
RHey group, I have a question. I got Brunner MkII FFB pedals to go along with my FFB stick, however I just read on Reddit that DCS doesn’t support two FFB devices. Is that true? I can’t find any other reference to this info, and figured this group would know for sure.
Aprobably not, I don't think any sim has native support for ffb pedals
Athey will need to run off special software, possibly making use of telemetry
Rsigh The fact that the Apache module has a “FFB friendly” trim setting listed for both cyclic and pedals led me to think both are supported.
