I mean if the main Rhino is like $850

The kit is like $400 and then the VPforce kit is like $350 so you save some but not enough imho to say you really “saved”

Bob Bushman•7/3/24, 6:37 PM

Cheaper than buying a bambulabs.

And you need 30-50 bucks for a proper PSU

Touch_Of_LegendOP•7/3/24, 6:37 PM

I tagged him so he’ll come and say what’s what because it’s legit and a lot faster for sure but how much cheaper is negligible at these numbers

Jabbers•7/3/24, 6:38 PM

You should be critical, all these people pre-ordering due to FOMO are nuts (not even speaking from having used it... literally my thoughts before i got it). We live in a weird world where everyone trusts the first review they see, even if it doesn't actually explain anything and the reviewer is completely ignorant to what they are reviewing... FOMO makes people open their wallets and companies prey on it now, especially in gaming

nubbins•7/3/24, 6:38 PM

Yes it's not really cheaper, the only savings I had was on taxes and brokerage fees

nubbins•7/3/24, 6:39 PM

Just faster

Touch_Of_LegendOP•7/3/24, 6:39 PM

The fun part is the build itself.

I actually love that part but yeah… you can even see from my posts it did take me about a month to find the 5hrs for myself to build it…

Like yall said… kids keep you really busy

nubbins•7/3/24, 6:39 PM

but printing by self is not a viable solution either financially, unless one is already into 3d printing with a good printer

nubbins•7/3/24, 6:39 PM

No way around it

Touch_Of_LegendOP•7/3/24, 6:40 PM

To me though the coolest part is when they point at the rig and they’re like daddy made that and made that and made that and my next project…

DIY rudders!

Touch_Of_LegendOP•7/3/24, 6:40 PM

So it’s cool for me to hear them brag about how daddy built that lol

Call me cheesy

Touch_Of_LegendOP•7/3/24, 6:41 PM

But again my kids are little and easily impressed hahahaha

SR-F_Winger_[73]_David•7/3/24, 7:42 PM

I am impressed:) Looks quite Sexy. Mind sharing an asembled view?

SR-F_Winger_[73]_David•7/3/24, 7:42 PM

guess it will feature FFB eh?

TTouch_Of_Legend We live in Nova I guess you’d say but more down 66 so more woodsy

Cyclic = Control Stick. Yes, for X-Plane and MSFS, the TelemFFB app supports basic cyclic force trim as part of its FFB implementation (neither X-Plane or MSFS have native FFB, it is wholly implemented by TelemFFB).

Hiob•7/4/24, 11:34 AM

100% agreed. You can have proper force trim (- release) and everything. FFB for helicopters is an absolute game changer.

Hiob•7/4/24, 11:35 AM

complemented with FFB pedals it's even better

Limitless VR & Simrigs•7/4/24, 12:11 PM

Crew....thank you so much, I have posted this on the YouTube channel to help this chap understand how amazing the Rhino will be for Helo's as well. The chat is on this video if you want to chime in and add to anything. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Enw4UsZyKJM&t=119s

TonyM•7/6/24, 2:05 AM

I never received a number like for the Rhino base. And whenever I ask the bot I only receive a reply to my order for the Rhino base.
Not sure how Walmis is handling the pre orders for the Crosswind FFB kits…

Daz_bike•7/6/24, 3:24 AM

The last update a few weeks ago from @walmis was that he intends to sell the MFG FFB rudder conversion kit and also release it as Open Source for DIY.
No timeframe. Given it was announced in February with photos of a completed set, I’m not sure what the issue is. Hopefully the STL print files for the motor support and pulley can be released so some of us can get on with the conversion.

TonyM•7/6/24, 4:53 AM

Thanks for the info! I missed that post from Walmis.
I actually wanted to get the kit but I am keen to see how much work/ sourcing is needed for the open source DIY.

PokePoke•7/6/24, 5:15 AM

Can anybody let me know where to find rhino DIY stl files and parts list?

I mean if the main Rhino is like $850 The kit is like $400 and then the VPforce kit is like $350 s
