BI believe it’s £599. £599 = $641
BIt seems weird, I heard $550, and €599, My best guess would be they assume tax on the Euro value, but it its quite weird as there is almost as much variance in the EU VAT as there is between sales tax in the US,

J$549 usd
JThey only want $170 for their grip
JInterestingly, I don't see a pre order up for their throttle
JBut they do have a module that adds twist (z axis) while also extending the length by 97mm https://mozaracing.com/product/moza-z-axis-module
THow much for the twist adapter?
TMany hardware teams work with MS (or whoever) long before a game is actually released.
NSomehow I have my doubts about "constructed from aluminum alloy" at $550
Nsounds like a warthog type deal, aluminum on the visible parts
J
JI simply linked to show the USA price since people were curious
Jcompared to EU price
AI'd be curious to see someone do a tear down once it arrives
CHow do we think the Moza base will compare to the Rhino?
Nnothing wrong with that, just observing what I observed before
Nprices seem a bit lopsided in favour of US
JMy opinion is it will fall short on the software side of things. They'll likely improve software over time, but fundamentally there are things that they won't be able to do. IDK enough to be more specific than that, but that's my guess at least.
NI have certain feelings about the name and functionality of "Telemetry FFB" lol
NBut imo it looks like it does all the major things
Nat less detail than vpforce config and telemffb but it's a good start
AIs the Telem feedback the vibration in the stick in certain conditions?
AOf course it doesn't hurt to have options, but am I the only one who couldn't help but wonder "why" when I saw this:
Athe rhino needs suction cups to compete now
Npremium RSI simulator lmao
Si didnt try the moza at the expo but someone i talked to did.. they said the feedback wasnt that impressive. stall was a vibration for a second, then stopped, then vibrated again...etc
Nwalmis sells it
RHey @walmis I want haha
Nhold up are we talking about the adapter for vkb grips?
RYeah
RExtension adapter
RThis adapter for the 200mm extension
RDid you remove it from a virpil extension or did you have it manufactured?
RI would like to know what the cooling system is like, as I see a completely closed box with no fins for airflow
RIt would be disappointing to know that it has the same heating and loss of strength problems as the brunner bases.
K
NProbably some kind of "thermal management"
Nthe marketing material is clever and dodges that question
NThe same way it dodges the question of actual gimbal materials

Kif you only need an adapter, you will need a grip set from VKB with an extension and a Virpil extension. You can save money and 3D print the clamping ring. I do not recommend making an adapter from plastic; it is not reliable. my printed adapter broke after a couple of months. CNC costs about $100
If you are interested in a complete VKB conversion for the Virpil base, then I recommend purchasing a board with USB and AUX connectors as a part from virpil support (45$) and using the AUX connector as a through connection grip to black box. Just cut off the boards road from the AUX and solder the 5pin connector for a standard connection with the Virpil cable for the grip

RI want to use this adapter permanently for my vpforce base, it is interesting because it is directly connected to the 200mm extension
Kwell everything what you will need is in the V2 archive. You can order all the parts CNC but it is expensive, the ring can be made a 3d print
RWould it be cheaper to buy a virpil extension and remove the ring?
KI left a link where I made my adapter, maybe they will make a ring cheaper than the extension from Virpel. I already had this extension and used the original clamp ring from Virpil.
