Interesting they put IL2 1946 there and not Sturmovik. Also, not sure if they just mean the War Thunder vibration feedback or if they actually worked with War Thunder to add more Force Feedback effects to the game which would be pretty insane.
Yeah I've no doubt that Moza's FFB base will be a spark that ignites some innovation/revolution in the flight sim market.
Virpil, VKB, and WinWing all playing checkers against each other slowly innovating and bringing out new things (granted, pandemic was tough on everyone so totally understandable places choose not to throw the resources and time required at making something like an FFB base), while Moza comes in playing 4D chess with their first line of products.
Very very smart of them to make it 3rd party grip compatible. Now all the Virpil and TM chads can use their existing grips. Others just need an adapter which already exists for other bases.
I've not seen in depth look at their pedals yet, but the throttle and FFB base at least seem very innovative and are bringing new things to the market that aren't available elsewhere for consumers at scale.
The throttle has built in haptic vibration for flight speed, the FFB base is something no other brand has on the market for consumers except Brunner, and our GOAT walmis.
The pedals also look pretty decent. The grip is pretty solid looking too, similar to the F16EX grip from WinWing in that it has an expanded module of buttons at the top.
I mean at least airspeed would be easy to get telemetry from, but going to Rhino advantage, I'm not sure how the profiles per plane will be. Or, even if there will be just one haptic motor. Still an interesting feature especial for aerial refueling simulation.
if the throttle "levers", throttle connector and handles are all taken from winwing, i'd expect the throttle gimbal to be the exact same WW cast alu cube as well
Given Thrustmaster already has force feedback products and came out with a modular base recently. I wouldn't be surprised if they had something in the works, or given the amount of interest sent a team of engineers after it. I doubt they'll announce it this year though.
