I have an extra tactile setup and this one will not be motion. I have the extra HOTAS as well and will use the VR for both my flight rigs (I have a primary motion rig that is setup for F-16 use). I have an extra powered USB hub as well. Only thing I need is actual rig and pedals, a second set of Winwing pedals would work great.

Nice!

smitty•10/1/24, 10:13 PM

the changeover is quick but i still leave it in flight mode most of the time

Duchess ✈OP•10/1/24, 10:20 PM

I found I did the same when I had just one rig. My main fault is being inherently lazy... I want convenience more than anything.

Which motion system/ tactile setup do you use?

I have a DOFReality P6 with a buttkicker mounted on the bottom of the rig using SimHaptic.

buzzbomb•10/2/24, 1:05 AM

I used to have two pits, two computers, etc. It never failed that i wanted to use X on pit 1 but i preferred accessory Y on pit 2. So i ended up still swapping stuff half the time. Now i have solution similar to what Smitty has.

buzzbomb•10/2/24, 1:07 AM

Now im working on a stable quick change solution for my Rhino so i can easilly swap it from center to side mount for when i have the urge to fly the 'bus or star citizen

TonyM•10/2/24, 1:50 AM

The bottom permanently mounted on the rig. And the top part attached to the mount plate of the Rhino for example.

TonyM•10/2/24, 1:51 AM

AFAIK this also a company which sells such QR for sim/flight rigs. Maybe someone can chime in….

buzzbomb•10/2/24, 1:52 AM

Thanks for the idea, but ill likely be fabricating my own solution.

I might end up getting a mount from these guys but which one did you get and how did you mount it?

Seems a bit pricey for the full kit.. like $150?

So I’m not really sure I need a $150 mount but hey… those are the brakes sometimes.

Thanks

It works best when you 3D print some adapter to fix the bolts.

HrEple•10/2/24, 6:58 PM

Regarding fastening screws on the gooseneck from virpil. Is it the external two screw on the gooseneck, or the two screws on top “inside” near the connector. I need to fasten “something”.

edit they were all loose - tightened all of them.

And context - my virpil grip is loose even when screwed on tight to the gooseneck.

buzzbomb•10/2/24, 7:39 PM

need more context

buzzbomb•10/2/24, 7:40 PM

the two screws at the top and bottom secure the respective aluminum threaded inserts to the extension. the two screws inside the top threaded connector secure electrical connector to the threaded insert. IF you are running a TM stick grip its reccomended to remove the two screws on the electrical connector so you can put an offset (twist) in the grip

buzzbomb•10/2/24, 7:41 PM

it also reduces the chances of bending the pins on a TM grip as there is no centering/alignment feature on the extension

HrEple•10/2/24, 7:44 PM

Running a CM2 grip from virpil. I should perhaps losen the electrical connection screws if I want to run it offset? Or is that a feature in the grip perhaps - that the connector is already able to twist.

muddy.props_airbrushhero_•10/2/24, 8:15 PM

Hey guys, is there a list of which grips are working in which way (eg. all buttons or just a few) with the rhino? Im thinking about switching out my vkb Gunfighter and looking for a replacement, including an extension. I‘m especially interested if the new virpil flnkr would work with it.

HrEple•10/2/24, 8:34 PM

Pretty sure the flnkr grip will be supported. Asked the same question at some point and learned that walmis is getting one himself. Fingers crossed

I build a Flight/Drive Rig like this. Everything stays in place when flying or driving except the Rhino. It is mounted with a Quick release system.
