LI have seen a nice workshop with two nice guys and one even nicer girl. Can not tell you anything else 
Awhat kind of a spy are you even
Adid you even see my mfg kit being built?
LSomething was being built, yes
Awhat else could it possibly be
ReBay
THRUSTMASTER WARTHOG/COUGAR ALUMINIUM GOOSENECK EXTENSIONS. You can order from this page OR my MAIN PAGE for WARTHOG EXTENSIONS.
RGreat seller to deal with, fast communication and shipping.
RLooks awesome.
LNo you don't. You can temporarily apply settings by pressing (just) Apply settings.
LThis reminds me: @walmis your order form only mentions VKB Gunfighter MK III compatibility, but MK II also had Rev.B connectors and is thus compatible.
S@walmis are you going to FSExpo? Great way to spread awareness.. you could probably sell enough rhinos to cover the cost https://flightsimexpo.com/
FlightSimExpo is one of the world’s largest dedicated flight simulation conferences and tradeshows. The next event takes place June 21-23, 2024 at Rio Las Vegas.
KHow/where you can set up throw limiter in SW?
FThe configuration app has the option

MOk got so u can test a change by hitting apply - and if u dont like it just restart the base and it resets to the saved settings?
BJust clicking "load settings" loads the stored settings on the stick as well.
VAbout the cooling fan; its loud and seems pretty ineffective (takes a long time for temps to drop 1 degree, especially considering the amount of noise). Not a big deal when wearing headphones, but flying solo I prefer not to. I dont know how the Rhino looks on the inside, I havent opened mine yet, but there has to be room for improvement here? For starters, is it possible to have the fan on at a low rpm all the time? Secondly, maybe some cooling fins on the motor if there is any room for it?
CWhat are you doing to get the fan to kick on? I never get mine to kick on.
BFrom what I'd understood it would turn on at about 50c, and that is still far from when the motors start to overheat.
Unless 40c ambient room temp, but then I'd suggest an AC more than an improved fan.

Aif you have enough spring force the fans will kick in with a reasonable amount of maneuvering
VTurn the master gain knob to full and fly for 30 mins, and they will kick in, Do I need full power? Hmm.. maybe not, but I do like it, and my PC room is still cool (it wont be this summer).
VYeah I think its 50C, and there is some hysteresis, I think it turns off at 47 or so. But even with no power being applied, that takes a pretty long time and there doesnt seem to be any fan speed control, its either on or off? That this is a safe temp; sure, probably, but that doesnt change anything really.
BI could be wrong, but I think the temps in question are internal motor temps.
And with these motors the casings are also used as heatsinks, great big lumps of them, so I'd expect they take a while to warm up and at least as long if not longer to dissipate, at least during use.

CMy settings must be a lot different. My master gain is 100 and I flying for hours and never had it go on.
Ait depends a lot on what you fly and how
Vyeah, but the casing, and Im assuming its just the stock stepper motor casing, doesnt have much surface area compared to some finned coolers. Gluing on some ribbed cooler could increase the surface area many fold and make the fan much more effective, assuming there is any room.
VFWIW, I had been flying the P51 in DCS doing touch and goes. I think the engine rumble is main culprit, always active. But I do like the engine rumble 
CThat's probably it. I keep my engine rumble lower as I have a haptic seat that does most of that for me.
Fhaptic seat...please speak more of this haptic seat......
CI have a very basic Hf8. I play IL2 mostly, but it really adds to the overall experience. I use Simshaker wings program to adjust the seat
BInteresting, I'll try to reduce the rumble and see what happens
GHi, I also have the fan turning on very often. Would you mind sharing a screenshot of your VP Force effects and settings screen? I would like to compare if my gains or my filter values the ones causing the overheat. I recently even ditched the extention to get more force. Thank you.

VHey @jonner,
So the last Shipped RHINO is #0525 on 2024-05-10
Average waiting time from preorder to shipped is 209 days, median is 215 days, max is 407 days
513 Rhinos are shipped in total

M481 just in case your interested thought I would give u my feedback on using the rhino with the mh60 mod - basically managed to get the hardware trim working by applying the setting to the stick (can see force trim is working from the axis display ) but using it this way the helicopter takes in a nose down attitude (even trimmed fully back stick) - only way I can get it flyable (with force trim partly working) is disabling the hardware trim and assigning force trim binds in game (makes it flyable) - just my experience…..not sure if anyone else had a similar experiences?
NAny plan yet to update the VKB adapter to rev.C?
WAlready done
Nbeauty 
now I wait patiently
now I wait patiently
SHow do people do their gooseneck extensions? Purchased product or DIY? If purchased, any good recommendations for vpc or winwing compatible ones?
TAny Ideas then the update including the Virpil Blackhawk grip will drop?
JI wish they made some cyclic grips as well
SI think the VPC Mongoose is close to a lot of eurocopter cyclics. Other untility choppers have fairly generic cyclic grips
DIn laymen's terms, what do these adapters do? Is it possible to use Virpil sticks with the Rhino? Would I need an adapter like this? Does an adapter already exist?

faqJvirpil works natively
Tdoes anyone know of a compatible grip that is very generic both handed for general aviation?
CYou need adapters for winwing and VKB sticks. TM and Virpil work by default
CI was hoping for a AH-64 Virpil cyclic grip, but doesn‘t seem to happen
PI think I'll try the MaxFlightSim collective, I'll let you know if and how it works

The Mongoose cm2 grip is an all round «does it all” grip for both helis and planes that natively fits the Rhino.
