FFFB becoming mainstream in flight simming. Lol
BDo newer Rhinos (SN 0656) have fans at all? When I test this with the VPforce_FFB_Configurator nothing seems to happen.
WHas come a long way mine is SN 0078 lol
LSN 0072 says hello 
FI do, but only cause I made one myself (should've chosen a more rugged gimbal though, meed some time to rectify that)
HI would be puzzled if not. You should be able to see it through the grill though. Have you tried the in the debug page?
HIt takes quite some time from playing (depending on what you’re doing)
BYes, I startet "Test Fans" on the debug page. The fan (found it with a torch) does not move.
Bright of the plate
MCould someone please tell me what is the length of the shaft in the vpforce rhino? Calculating what kind of extension would fit on my setup
MGiven 22 degrees throw every millimeter counts with my setup :p
WMake sure it's fully powered via DC plug and e-stop switch is on (motors are running), the fans are one on the opposite side of the pic and one on the rear.
MThank you! Maybe I should've asked what is the distance from the top to the pivot point - but this should be close enough for my use case
BYou have to press the switch, then the fans do run. Many thanks for the tip!
HI moved up 100 places in 7 days, this rate is crazy
TIf the MFG Crosswind kit would also move, that would be terrific

SThere is a Kit already available from @kaltokri thou for the MFGs

TI ordered the Rhino's 8020 metal mount. The one side with the 2 bolts is snug to my 8020 but the other side has alot of slop or flex in it. The Rhino will bounce up and down when I stall a plane and it's kind of annoying. I tried placing some small rubber pieces between the metal but it still has slop in it. Should I just try to drill some holes and mount with more bolts? I can't really counter sink is though?
HI wrapped some electrical tape around it to have a snug fit.
TRelated to metal mounts, any chance we can get a metal VKB adapter (gunfighter 4)? Would be great to have the peace of mind with metal. And then I could Frankenstein a VKB grip onto a RealSimulator base too…

Cvery excited for my rhino to turn up over the last few days - could anyone point me in the direction of a good solution to mount it to a NLR flight seat pro? ive heavily considered just throwing some plywood underneath the seat and bolting the rhino to that but itd be a big pain in the ass so if theres someone that makes a mounting plate for the existing center mount on the seat or has another idea thatd be amazing
THello 3d printers Whats the best budget 3d printer I can get I mean dirt cheap? $150.00 or less?
TAnd would it be junk?
BCould likely find a used ender 3 or something for $100.
Sizeable area but lacks any automation so require learning what craft there is in printing but can definitely achieve great prints with the effort.

Hhi, a brand new bambulabs A1 mini is just 199,- bucks and far FAR superior to any Ender 3 kind of printer. Seriously don't save 50 bucks and get 20% of the performance.
AAs a former Ender3 user with an ender 3 for sale my honest advice is: Go for Bambulabs.
FAnother vote for Bambulabs (owning a P1S with AMS as my third printer now): Their software is excellent, the handling is the easiest I have seen for years, the automated calibration and filament loading is really a gift, the precision of the prints out of the box is amazing. If you just want to print that's the way to go.
TNot necessarily, don’t let the Bambu snobs naysay a good old Ender3.
TThat being said I don’t think an Ender3 is even sub $150
WAnother plus one for a Bambu Labs, just got a P1S myself, but I hear the A1 is good too.
And TheAmazingGreat, all I keep seeing is people complaining about Ender 3’s online, and basically now they’ve moved to a Bambu Labs printer they can finally start getting over the PTSD the Ender 3 gave them and now spend more time printing than tinkering and fixing stuff with the printer.

T“I’m looking for my first car, I don’t have a big budget.”
“Bro buy a Ferrari, it’s so nice.”
“Bro buy a Ferrari, it’s so nice.”
WSomeone already mentioned the A1 mini, I think that’s made by Bambu Labs. 
HThere is nothing per se wrong with an Ender 3. It is just not state of the art anymore. The manual bed leveling alone is a show-stopper today (before I got a Prusa MK4 for the office and later an A1 mini for private, I used an Ender 3 for a couple of years).
If we were talking a big gap in money for a modern printer - of course an Ender is fine. You will get your stuff printed. Very slow, and not dimensionally perfect but still.....
....but as I said - a brand new A1 mini is just 50,- bucks over the budget given by @TeufelHunden . If that's a hard limit - well I would look for a used A1-mini. But honestly it would be wiser to find the 50,- bucks somewhere.

HOf course an A1 mini comes with one shortcoming - It has only 180 bx 180 build plate. But I can count on one hand the times I needed more than that in the past couple years.
HThe cheaper bambu options are for sure close to a ferrari in speed, but certainly not in price. So, no..... not a valid point.
FThe reason people advocate for bambu over ender is that its a lot less hassle. Sure, you can print decent things with a 150 dollar printer, but those will take time to set up and dial in. A bambulab(there are others but its just the best) is well tuned out of the box and you can instead focus on printing.
FIt'd make the comparison between a beaten up older car and a new cheap one. Sure, you might be able to get the first car for cheaper, but itll require a lot more maintenance than if you save up for a brand new one.
FAnd in this case you also get much better performance out of the newer model
FSo, to answer the question, yes, an ender 3 would likely be possible for that price, and itll print what you want it to. Just know that itll take time to set up and dimensional accuracy and speed will be worse than the bambu a1 mini
FWhich isnt to say that you cannot print anything well on it, but the reason people recommend saving for bambu is that its just that much better
THe asked for under $150 and no one, including me with the Ender3 suggestion, has given a recommendation that fits his criteria.
TThere are also plenty of problematic things about the closed Bambu ecosystem too.
HSure. The point is you can get something really good for 200,-. Recommending something far inferior for 150,- would simply be bad advice.
Sometimes the best advise is: Don't do it, save some more.
You can have a different opinion, thats fine, But is seems a broad consensus.
