Not 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
Well 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.
If 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.
Just in case anyone wants to do something similar. 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
Hello 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.

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...
Looking to do my solo in December sometime, then it’s just exams to get out of the way. Next stop training for my flight instructor course the year after
Monster Rhino as a center stick and original Rhino as a side stick. Thank you @SR-FWinger[73]_David and @walmis for making this possible! The 86 motors are amazing. They never overheat no matter how hard or how long I pull.
its a bit diffrent from the original TheAmazingGreat files. I made some slight changes to the bottom plate (added side reinforcements - probably not needed but i like to overengineer things;)) and added an exhaust fan for better ventilation.
Damn, I want a monster Rhino. Looks sick and I bet it'd be great for long dogfights in warbirds (which is what I use my Rhino for mostly currently). Just a bit too poor to be acquiring anything big right now
Hi guys, anyone else have the MFG crosswinds? I’m trying to turn the sensitivity down and I can’t find out how to get it less so it’s not shooting off in any direction.
Regular. Every time I set off on the runway it’s massively over controlling , if I push the pedals to the limits 4 times it’s fine, land and it’s the same. Bloody things.
Did you properly calibrate them with the MFG software? Which Sim are we talking about? what does the device manager in Windows show. Does the axis work properly there? Depending on the answers I would assume problems in the sims control settings is more likely than anything else.
However, some planes are just that sensitive to nose wheel steering during takeoff. In f16 I barely put in anything to correct it, and you gotta turn it off after 80 something knots or youll go flying
