Anyone know of a L shaped stick extension I can get? I have a VKB gunfighter grip. I looked at the VKB, Virple, and Winwing stores and non have an L shaped stick extension. Would I have to build my own?

I'd like to second that question but for goose-neck cyclic style extensions

nubbins•6/1/24, 8:54 AM

could be a good opportunity to diy? since you don't need to worry about wires inside the extension, it's all external connection for vkb

Bob Bushman•6/1/24, 9:54 AM

That z grip is as close you'd get to an l, I'd doubt you actually need and L.

The grip end of that swivels so it makes a fully straight up stick, it just has a 15cm offset, it does build nearly 11cm to though.

Perfect! Only problem is I need an adapter to fit the VKB grip on the Virpil extension, if that exists

Bob Bushman•6/1/24, 4:42 PM

It would be the same as the normal one.

Touch_Of_Legend•6/1/24, 9:28 PM

I’m mounting it to a pedestal because the normal throw (22 degree) is absolutely perfect for me.

Also it’s not a huge deal but an extension lowers the forces you feel (ever so slightly) so I’m able to run the rhino at slightly lower settings and get basically the same stick feel.

I’ll post a pic when it’s finished but remember like ALL things with me… Slow AF

Touch_Of_Legend•6/1/24, 9:30 PM

I posted my review in the reviews tab.

Keep in mind we live outside DC (east coast) so shipping from Europe is a bit quicker for me than for west coast folks.

Start to finish my order was 4 freaking days TOTAL

I mention in the review that seems super fast so maybe I was lucky but yeah between 4-6 days and it’s at your door.

depends on order availability

Everything to assemble the Protomaker build is on the BOM in the assembly page. (Page 2)

As nubbins said only Gadroc build and some light mods use the inserts.

Most of the builds out are the proto build and they are all running strong!

my VKB setup is made of almost exclusively 2by4 and plywood, I just need to replace my dining chair for a garden furniture and itll be full ghetto

arj211•6/2/24, 10:07 AM

I'd recommend getting some 2by4 and long screws to mount it on the chair bracket, or a pedestal with piece of ply and then your heels/pedals will stabilize it

Dentedend10•6/3/24, 3:41 AM

Hi! I'm new to FFB. I'm wondering if the deceleration - stick forward effect is a realistic one or is that art added to FFB? i'm just confused why the stabilators would change to nose down due to breaking. or is it the inertia of the stick pulling it forward? in that case isn't it a little strong of an effect?

Dentedend10•6/3/24, 3:42 AM

walmis•6/3/24, 6:09 AM

It's not meant to be realistic, more of an 'art' added for immersion like various vibrations. Some may like it some may don't - it's always possible to turn it off.

RimanDk•6/3/24, 7:37 AM

Hey guys - does anyone have experience with the VKB Rev C adapter (mk4)? I have a Rev B with the pins and the contact patch and the disconnects are driving me insane. Was wondering if the Rev C works better or not? Seems to be a minijack configuration, which should be far superior, by the looks of it?
