HI can’t tell if that is the reasonable thing to do for you. It is pricey and DIY isn’t for everyone. I certainly enjoyed the process and am enjoying the final product. And my judgment of the Moza is strictly subjective opinion based on assumptions.
Ayeah I'd very much like to know how the moza handles heat from prolonged stress, but without testing it's impossible to really say, it might be totally fine indefinitely
Athe inertia of the motor hanging on the gimbal can theoretically be mitigated by clever use of the other motor
DI already have all the parts
DScrews
DIt's more of a Matter of finding the time
DOnly thing I don't have is motors and a place to mount lol
DI could always turn the force down on the moza
HThat would eat away some of its capacity. Regarding the heat, when the Moza produces the same amount of torque (which it does by the specs) it will produce roughly the same amount of waste heat, no way around that. Given that it not even has ventilation slots…..
AI share your assesment, but until someone tests it, it's just guesstimation
Amaybe they use superconducting materials or perhaps it runs on fairy dust and produces no heat
Aor does fairy dust produce heat
Aand yes compensating for the motor's inertia takes some power, but again the question is how much and of how much
DIn theory couldn't I just turn the force down to half?
HYeah, less power less heat, but that would contradict its purpose wouldn’t it?
The problem with the Moza is that (so far) all „tests“ seem to be sponsored. At least I haven’t seen an independent (and competent) test yet.

Asponsor me a moza base and I'll do a sponsored test
HYeah, me too! 
SI have an issue with the VPForce in MSFS. It feels like the FFB is inverted? You need alot of power to overcome the centre but not alot of force as you put more input in so I end up having hyper unstable planes that only like full ffb inputs.
WHello guys! Just wondering is it possible to use the rhino base as a collective for helis?
BYou can diy an actual collective with a single motor kit.
W@Bob Bushman i already have the base so i was thiunking on using that. just wondering what settings i need to setup for the autopilot be able to move the collective axis
BThat would require the sim to have built in ffb for collective and none do.
CWhy would you use the rhino as a collective and not the cyclic?
BOnly good reason i can think of is he has two 
WI do hahaha
W@Bob Bushman looks like its possible with TelemFFB and the. H145(which is what i fly)
NGive it a different PID. Add it to TelemFFB as a collective. It will do collective things on the y axis.
WHow do i add it to TelemFFB as a collective?

MI too am interested in FFB collective…….using a VPF motor on a custom built collective to use with the X-Trident’s A109SP …..why?…..because in a 4-axis AFCS the collective with trim feel engaged will actually respond power changes. If you press the trim feel trigger underneath the collective it will disengage the trim feel and allow manual control…….i feel that the VPF motor would be perfect to make such a realistic collective. But not sure if it can…..??
BQuick question- im down below 150 on the wait list. How are we contacted when its time to place an order? I dont want to miss it if an email ends up in my junk folder. Thanks
HYou'll get an email and a message from VPforceBot.
BThanks
YWhat is exactly the additional length of built-in extenstion compared to vkb or virpil base? From the dimensions it looks like it is 160mm from the axis of rotation, and in my vkb it looks like i am only 40mm from the axis rotation (my guess, it might be more), hence I was assuming that you have defacto a 120mm extension built in. Has someone measure this more accuretely?
HFrom the point of rotation to the top of thread it‘s ~140mm measured from the CAD files.
NNot without collaboration from (and likely significant work by) the developer. Edit Well, after looking at some info about the heli, it seems there is at least some provisions built in to allow for springless joysticks and/or FFB implementations. But its unknown how or if this extends to the collective axis. Also I don't own the aircraft nor have access to the manual to even try to get a sense of what it would take
YThank you! Any idea on how does it compare with vkb or virpil?
HMy VKB has no more than 45-50mm to the connector. I would guess Virpil is about the same.
HIn my personal opinion the Rhino works best as a center/floor mount stick with extension. As a side stick e.g. it is not well suited.
OWell guys, I’ve not flown in the ikarus for over 9 months, I added the force feedback stick to my simulator to help with my training.
Today I took off unassisted, first landing was a bit crap, but the next 7 touch and goes were as my instructor said, bloody perfect.
So if anyone says Spending all that money on it is a waste, tell them they don’t know what they are talking about.
Looking to be going solo in the middle of December weather permitting.

BIf its fun its not a waste 
, I think it's getting better but I still wouldn't rely on my home pit, even with rhino and vr, but I do think it can help more to keep the mindset running than say chair flying or just staring at flight instrument posters if you are weeks maybe even months between actual flights.

I was able to modify one of my hotas mounts in my Next Level Racing Military Edition Chair. Pretty easy just need to make a couple of new holes and you can use the rhino as a collective! Works great with the H145. Autopilot moves the collective. Let me know if you want more info on how to modify the mount
Fthat is a wild setup
W@walmis i wish we had native support for the Virpil Hawk-60 collective grip! It would be awesome

SHello everyone. Small reminder. I git one Kit ready to Ship to build a Monster Rhino that IS able to Take the biggest VPForce Motors 86BLF04.

Usually i only make These Kit per Order cause the parts are quite expensive but i Made this extra one on Stock. To get my Investment Back now available at a reduced price (PM for Details).
Shipping Worldwide possible.

Hi Folks, Based on the awesome Work of @TheAmazingGreat (thanks for your permission to use your Work AS a Base) I made some slight changes and am offering a VPForce MONSTER Rhino Kit sourcing service. The "Thing" kit has the following Specs: - Gimbal printed from laser sintered PA12. - Grip-Conne...
HOh, the urge.....
but I already spent a fortune on Rhino related stuff......
