the new hyper taurus might be if it has motors

BI've got an orion 2 and the very first gen virpil throttle, so can't really say i need replacement there.
BBut I would be intrigued to diy one, if I could just get a spot ready where i could some diy.
MEven the super taurus is miles ahead of the TMWH throttle, just good luck getting one these days lol. I'm excited to see what the hyper taurus can do/looks like, but WW software has always sucked ass, so any FFB functionality might be... not great
BOr have "issues".
FIm intrigued in a throttle based vpforce
FWith the detent system we have now i wonder if itd work okay
BMy throttle works, but last i checked never showed up in the software as its on a hub.
So to do anything with it configuration wise I would have to move it over to the actually computer.
Thats on the other side of a wall and its fully bolted down on my 150lbs pit.

DI have a TM F-16 (UK Edition, not even sure what that means) coming to replace the TM F-18 grip I have now. I just figured the F-16 grip is more versatile and should work better for A-10 and F-4E even though I like the F-18 one for the F-15E module.
LSuper Taurus, in my opinion, mechanically is the best throttle out there.
CI love my Super Taurus
Cthe startup panel is kind of useless because they were so specific with it, so even if you're using it for the hornet there are really only maybe half a dozen switches that will get any real use, and there are no extra buttons on it at all, so most of the switches on the panel are just unused for me. The throttle itself is excellent, though.
Iin my case the problem are the buttons
PYou’re right

Tohh boy, #0588 is rapidly approaching 
Cno way #1234 is kinda close
C
Ait could happen any moment now
R#1150 is closer, hehe
RBut your number is cooler
Mlol
Mthe X Y axis are potentiometers or hall effect?
MThey use the motor's encoders
MWhat is connector type for potentiometers on vpforce board?

MCan I use hall sensors instead pots? Have pedals on my t-rudder it would be nice if they would work with your board
WYes - the voltage range is 0-3.3V
Mthen its ok, now brakes works with arduino, so i will use them on vpforce
SWe have a detent system now? Did I miss a firmware update? 
S@AndyHill @TorTorden here's a compilation of grip weights for reference:
MCGP 331g,
WW18 428g
Alpha 509g,
MCGU 594g,
Alpha Prime 606g,
WW16EX 613~629g
Warthog 1023g
MCGP 331g,
WW18 428g
Alpha 509g,
MCGU 594g,
Alpha Prime 606g,
WW16EX 613~629g
Warthog 1023g
SPersonally, I went with as much weight reduction as possible, which was the RealSim grip because it also saved me the weight and length of the WW adapter + the angle adapter for the F16 grip.
SBut this is for a side-stick optimised configuration
BAye the RS grips sounds sweet, still €500 for juat the home version.
Kinda of funny its the lightest as its also built to handle significant force for the force sensing bases.
Virpil and tm grips have been known to snap off those after some use.

MThere's also Tianhang, 350g
MI've never seen a report of a Virpil snapping on those (they aren't even officially supported in the firmware), but the TM part that snaps isn't the grip, it's the potmetal neck of the connector
FIts supposed to be a sysyem for ffb shifters
FBut if we can modify the profile, it shouldnt be too hard to make it capable of liftable detents
JI didn't know the MCGP was so light compared to others
RAny update on the FFB rudder kit?
Sah so that's not out yet. I missunderstood the tenses.
Syeah it really is. unfortunately that also translates as a feeling of rather hollow plastic, compared to any other choice in the top range.
JI've not used anything else so far
Aplastic is fine really, I just really don't like the feel of the VKB plastics (only tried their basic stick though, can't remember the name)
AVirpil plastic (mongoos cm2) had a nicer feel to it, but I didn't like its buttons
JI upgraded from Thrustmaster HOTAS 4 to VKB MCGP to Rhino with VKB adapter
JI have had hands on an MCGU MK IV tho, and granted I didn't get any proper use on it, felt like it wasn't much different than MCGP. Main difference being the buttons themselves
JThough to be fair the room it was in was rather warm, so I couldn't really tell that it was metal
