Just working on mounting my rhino onto some aluminum extrusion. The T-nuts I have take 5/16” bolts which is just under 2mm bigger than the 6mm holes. Does anyone know what the base is made of? Am I gonna busy things if I expand those holes a bit?

why not just buy a plate for it, on the extrusion size you want?

nubbins•6/12/24, 7:14 PM

MT has a 4080 plate, both foxx and pred have 1020 plates for rhino

nubbins•6/12/24, 7:14 PM

1530 might be able to use the 4080 plate idk

Diverzant•6/12/24, 10:27 PM

If i didnt select the VKB adapter on the pre order, is it possible to change it afterwards when walmis contacts me?

Fr4Ged•6/12/24, 10:28 PM

you can select the accessories once you finally order the Rhino, yeah.

Diverzant•6/12/24, 10:29 PM

Oh thank god. Now VKB just needs to restock its EU supplies

DDiverzant Oh thank god. Now VKB just needs to restock its EU supplies

nubbins•6/12/24, 10:40 PM

yeah walmis is great

nubbins•6/12/24, 10:40 PM

pm'd him and he added the metal connector to my ffb order in minutes, after already putting the order in

Awesome! Now I need to beg VKB to restock asap

SamNFTY•6/12/24, 10:47 PM

The beauty of not ordering from a big warehouse where you're just a line on a spreadsheet

DDiverzant Awesome! Now I need to beg VKB to restock asap 😄

Fr4Ged•6/12/24, 10:54 PM

I wanted to get the MCG as well. Has been out of stock for at least three months. Don't know if it is even made anymore.

Diverzant•6/12/24, 10:56 PM

Did they hint on making something new?

Fr4Ged•6/12/24, 10:58 PM

Not that I have seen. The alternative Virpil MongoosT has been out of stock for the same time. Went with the Constellation

DDiverzant Did they hint on making something new?

nubbins•6/12/24, 10:59 PM

It's just EU woes isn't it

nubbins•6/12/24, 10:59 PM

Other regions just fine

Diverzant•6/12/24, 11:00 PM

I thought of going with virpil prime one but not sure since I dont have any experience woth virpil and I dont like the lights on it

Nnubbins Other regions just fine

Diverzant•6/12/24, 11:00 PM

Yeah, iirc NA store is just fine

Bob Bushman•6/12/24, 11:09 PM

Can turn those lights off

Bob Bushman•6/12/24, 11:09 PM

Well, I'd think

BBob Bushman Can turn those lights off

Diverzant•6/12/24, 11:10 PM

I thought so but still not sure how it compares to VKB MCG Ultimate. Man I regret selling mine

Fr4Ged•6/12/24, 11:16 PM

On the Rhino the lights don't even turn on. It is a great grip. Not the best looking but really well made!

Diverzant•6/12/24, 11:25 PM

Definitely not the best looking

nubbins•6/12/24, 11:26 PM

why'd you sell

Nnubbins why'd you sell

Diverzant•6/13/24, 4:14 AM

At that time I had 2 setups. Simple Simpit and VKB Gunfighter 3 and MCG Ultimate and I thought that Simpit one would be better. That was a mistake, a big one

was that the mig29 replica stick? it seems his page has been dead for a long time

tebinu•6/13/24, 4:22 AM

i want to build a small homecockpit with VR (since i dont have enough space at my office desk at home). I use the quest 3 so i can play DCS without it being attached to the computer.. but how would i do that with my diy joystick? Is there something like usb via ethernet or similar that i could use that that would work without performance problems? (i do know, it exists, but i am more interested in if it would actually work with a Joystick)

Diverzant•6/13/24, 4:52 AM

Thats the one. Back when I ordered mine he was not really eager to make it. Took him way more than it should, bunch of messages ignored etc. all in all wouldnt really recommend. And thats before we even start talking about the product itself…

nubbins•6/13/24, 5:21 AM

damn! i thought it looked like a nice product...I guess appearances can be deceiving

nubbins•6/13/24, 5:21 AM

but now you're on the road to rhino, so everything worked out

Diverzant•6/13/24, 6:12 AM

That were my thoughts aswell. At first it seemed fine but I guess that was just the wffect of a new toy. After a while I realised how shit it actually is. One example is, sometimes recentering the stick is almost impossible so I run like a 6 units for the deadzone which makes refueling an overcorrecting battle. Sometimes the aircraft just suddenly pulls to one side for whatever reason. Paint peeling off, loose screws etc…

Nnubbins but now you're on the road to rhino, so everything worked out 🙃

Diverzant•6/13/24, 6:12 AM

Only thing i regret is not doing it sooner

Diverzant•6/13/24, 6:13 AM

Like when the F4 was announced

BBob Bushman Well, I'd think

is there a repository of different configs for different applications somewhere?

FarFutureFox•6/13/24, 4:59 PM

I’ve just got my Rhino. I don’t see a setting for engine vibrations in the config software. Is it possible? The Brunner software allows it, as does other FFB software.

corbu1•6/13/24, 5:02 PM

Check out the TelemFFB app. This allows additional effects for the rhino.

WhiteHawk77•6/14/24, 12:26 AM

Hey guys, can someone confirm something for me as I’m a little confused on the ordering process. I’m about three months in on the list for the prebuilt Rhino, but I’ll want to buy a few accessories with it at the time but I don’t think I selected anything but the Rhino when I did the form, is that going to be a problem later or will I get a chance to select them when the time comes? Also, how often is the info bot updated with the number of orders, anyone know?

AndyHill•6/14/24, 12:50 AM

I don't think it's going to be an issue, you make the order when your Rhino is ready to go
