Totally, whenever im thinking of VKB my mind immediately jumps to VPC and i have to smack myself and think "no! its the other 3 letter acronym, now let me google it for the 1259173rd time and maybe ill remember it"
In other news, I have had my Rhino for 6 days. I haven't had a chance to use it as much as i like but my initial impressions are unequivocally positive. I am blown away by its functionality, easy of use and quality. Well Done @walmis
Lol just saw a „review“ of the Moza (with the guy actually opening it)…. My second hand judgement….. meh. Nothing to worry about for the Rhino. Looks dirt cheap on the inside and the gimbal is a joke. (It actually has one motor throwing around). Maybe in practice that doesn’t matter all that much, but the absence of active cooling will become a problem. (Search for "Jabbers Moza")
I don't think Rhino will have anything to worry about for a long time. The main appeal of the Rhino, especially once more places have FFB, is the absurdly high quality open source software support to provide functionality and features and effects that will always be generations ahead of anything else
I hope to one day see a VPforce yoke, or perhaps even other things like throttle, belt system, and of course the upcoming pedal kit for Crosswinds. With the software available, anything that can natively access said software will be superior to everything else.
There is really only two options that are relevant. The "standard" option for the regular (DIY)-Rhino are the 57BLF03. If you want a significant upgrade in max. force over them, you want the 86BLF04. However they don't fit the regular Rhino or DIY-Kits. There are DIY plans that will fit the bigger motors (they are physically much bigger). Makes it all more expensice though.
Jabbers definitely makes quality content, well worth a sub. He had a hell of a time getting the MOZA AB9 base to function early on, and gave them lots of valuable feedback over several iterations. Yet no punches were pulled in his public reporting of many uncomfortable realities either. OTOH, MOZA themselves are terrible at community management / communications. That's why I ended up building a Rhino instead of buying a MOZA, actually. The owner and the community here are so much better, far more helpful and trustworthy.
Seems like if you really want that kind of control, you could speak to the dev team here for Telemffb And see if you can help or get access. Otherwise just build your own system from scratch.

On the other hand, when you go to screw it onto the Rhino...go very quietly otherwise you risk damaging the Rhino's screw thread (3d printing is therefore more fragile).
The "Machined Aluminum Grip Mount Upgrade for Rhino" is really worth the price in my opinion. I use the PA12 printed version at the moment. It is ok as long as you are carefully and don't change the grip/extension often. But I've one aluminum here and will change it next time I change something at my rhino or simpit.
Yeah you're right. Unfortunately I didn't know this when I placed the initial order. So I took the plans supplied by Walmis and printed them out more solidly. Anyway, if you don't change your grips every day, he won't have any problems
If 2 diy kits are ordered for a total of 4motors, can 2motors be used for a Collective and Rudder application with the same Vpforce software? Is this supported? So bassicaly a Joystick with 2 motors, and collective and rudders with one motor each? Thanks
