This, the biggest advantage ffb gives you is feeling how your plane is reacting to your flying without having to look at your instrument panel especially in scenarios where you’re at that pre stall speed. I wish there were some non diy rudder ffb options to help with feeling when your aircraft is slipping or skidding.

In my case i alrrady have bass
Shakers to inform me if i am for example near stall, so if i get it right : the ideal settings
for beeing competitive with ffb stick in M.P. would be to tune it so lightly as to permit fast stick movements but at the same time to feel as much as possible of the effects that ffb can offer. Is that right?

you get much better feedback from ffb stick on stalls, your fingers being more sensitive than your bum

lolof1•8/28/24, 8:57 PM

Yes it’s true ,the FFB VPForce it’s a game changer in simulation !

DARRYL•8/28/24, 9:24 PM

I assume that aerodynamic force feedback via the stick could be useful to develop a feel for max rate of turn airspeed (while watching opponent across the circle), despite no stall shakes in that regime. Looking forward to finding out some day.

Austringer•8/29/24, 3:02 AM

I was thinking about it, is there any reason to FFB pedals if you don't fly warbirds?

Col. Sanders•8/29/24, 3:17 AM

Helos, instantly switch between spring centering or not. Not sure if it's implemented yet or will be in games down the road but force trim

Hiob•8/29/24, 5:54 AM

Sure. Next to the possibility of force trim, you can have all the same effects (like guns, stall shudder, ETL) like with the stick. Makes it even more immersive if stick and pedals are rumbling the same. My setup is on a moving platform and the engine/rotor vibration e.g. is felt through the whole contraption including my seat.

Scarlet•8/29/24, 6:51 AM

A lot of fighters have a pedal shaker stall warning. Would be cool to have that through FFB too

Obviously that is a matter of personal taste, can't really give you advice on that. All I can say is, that pretty much everyone who built or bought a Rhino is very happy. I am.

Xaero Zero•8/29/24, 2:56 PM

ability to customize stick feel right on fly in software, even not launching any sim is golden and alone worth it

Hiob•8/29/24, 2:57 PM

That is true

Xaero Zero•8/29/24, 3:22 PM

speaking of spring, with FFB pedals you can do that on fly in software (remove spring), @Hiob can assert on that more as I’m not that qualified with pedals

Hiob•8/29/24, 3:32 PM

Well the FFB mod for the Crosswinds, there is no need anymore to remove the spring. Just have different profiles set for different Aircraft or change the setting on the fly.

Hiob•8/29/24, 3:34 PM

In fact the spring needs to be removed for the mod.

SSamNFTY How much easier is it to remove on the WW? The MFG isn't hard to remove

Austringer•8/29/24, 3:48 PM

5 seconds

Col. Sanders•8/29/24, 3:49 PM

Should take about the same time to remove the MFG. But as Hiob said that's one of the benefits of the FFB mod.

amadeus•8/29/24, 4:03 PM

There is no “spring” in FFB pedals (in fact, the conversion mod removes the spring). It’s entirely controlled in software. With TelemFFB there wouldn’t be any config to change between aircraft, you would just setup the pedals the way you want it to feel, and then everytime you fly that aircraft telemffb sets it up for you

Bumping this^^^

I still think it’d be an awesome implementation.

Regarding potential injury, the stick can jump around just as much from the FFB when you crash or do a hard landing, so what’s the difference?

There’s that, plus handing over controls would be more seamless. Instead of having to enable and look at controls indicator then matching then requesting control, you could just grab the stick wherever it is and request control

Arno•8/30/24, 10:32 AM

Mhhh, an internet controllable multi axis moveable actiuator that can vibrate which sits between your legs. I wonder what alternative uses people might come up with? Mighh be a whole new world of enthousiasts for this!
