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

Same here, I have a lot of the QR stuff on my current rig.

My main rig has become solely F-16, so I will need one for everything else.

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

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

DDuchess ✈I thought about that, and I possibly would, but getting this big direct drive wh...

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.

I'm liking the new G-Force effect! Much easier to keep pulling consistent Gs for tactical turns.

hectik•10/3/24, 10:27 PM

One of the options on the Order Request form for the base is the 'Machined Aluminum Grip Mount Upgrade'. Is the grip mount that comes with the base not aluminum? What's the difference? Just cosmetic?

Hiob•10/3/24, 10:45 PM

If your goal was to build a machine that is MEANT to un-tighten screws, a Rhino would come very close to that. Well, it‘s main function is to vibrate like crazy.

buzzbomb•10/3/24, 11:51 PM

the normal grip mount that is included is 3d printed. the upgraded one is machined aluminum. If you are like me and swap grips/extentions alot, or just want piece of mind, spring for the aluminum one

amadeus•10/4/24, 7:49 AM

honestly, i'd recommend getting the aluminum grip mount regardless. A lot of stress will go into that part of the rhino over time, and it's one less thing to worry about in the long run

Bbuzzbomb it should be swappable

LeLv30_Superbus•10/4/24, 12:42 PM

How would you take the stock grip mount off? I tried once but I couldn't pull it out. I think I need some kind of tool.
