Hey @FlatSpin, So the last Shipped RHINO is #0903 on 2025-02-14 Average waiting time from preorder to shipped is 204 days, median is 207 days, max is 437 days 865 Rhinos are shipped in total
What is the Rhino made out of? I do notice 3d printed gears, but what is the frame made of? Looks like aluminum or steel? Also, with 9nm and possibly a small extension, does this still have the ability to be as strong or stronger than a cam base? I have no reference for what 9nm feels on a grip vs on a wheel.
Box is painted plywood, and main gimbal is also 3d printed.
Stronger than my virpil bases, albeit didnt try the most powerful springs But easily twice the force of any medium spring I've tried. But it is difficult to compare, the forces in an ffb stick is just that different.
The base itself has a built in 10cm extension, so most don't need extensions for height, nor for range (its quite common to reduce the range from stock) but some use the virpil z-extension to bring the grip closer.
Is there a specific form or something to order the winwing adapter separately? I did not initially think I had a need for it but I decided to pull the trigger on getting one of their sticks. Need the adapter to run in my gooseneck.
Hello, I have a question regarding stick compatibility and switching. Currently on a virpil setup, and I can tell the software to load a profile for each grip so that I can use the one most suitable to what I am flying. Is this possible too on the Rhino ? What about button and axis limitations on said grips ? Flankr features analog ministick and brake lever, is that supported too ? I read somewhere there was a button limit
Can the data sent from DCS to TelemFFB when starting a mission to configure the Spring Force for the specific module be visualized somewhere? Does it appear in any logs from DCS or TelemFFB? I am trying to reverse engineer what is th Spring Value set by DCS for each module. Many thanks in advance, Y.
DCS simply starts a spring effect and modifies the coefficient value of the effect which equates to the strength. If you look at the debug tab in configurator you can see what the coefficient value is for the active spring effect at any given time.
Keep in mind it will always be 0-4096, regardless of how you have your other configurator settings set. DCS has no idea what your spring gain slider is set to. That simply acts as a multiplier on top of the gain value set in the effect itself.
The spring effect managed by DCS is typically ID:5
Many thanks! Is this coefficient fixed for each module or does it change with other parameters such as deviation or speed? Is there any dynamic aspect? I understand that this coefficient implies the following %, assuming saturation = 100% F16 X = 99% = Maximum; Y= 50% F18 X/Y = 99% = Maximum HUEY X/Y = 1% = Minimum A10 X/Y = 99% = Maximum F14 - X/Y = 99% = Maximum I am surprised the information coming from DCS modules regarding configuration of FFB is so basic.
It depends on the module. In general however, Warbirds and the like will vary with airspeed FBW aircaft like the F18 will by static Helicopters will be static. Spring force will go to 0 when trim release is pressed
The F4 has the most advanced implementation. The gain varies by airspeed and the bobweight is simulated by shifting the centerpoint in response to g-loading.
In aircraft where the stick moves in response to trim input, that will also be handled by the centerpoint of the spring effect.
It is annoying to have the A10, F4 and F14 sticks so far forward by default. I've been successfull at least somewhat in tweaking it back with a setting suggested here. Might be endstops
Anyone considering upgrading to new VIRPIL R1 Falcon pedals? My Ace interceptors are still on back order (with Flankr) so wonder if it makes sense change them or that will lead to more delays
restart software / PC and thing i made an oppsi is: make sure your profile isnt set to be a chopper had that on the mirage F1 accidentally put it to chopper and the moment i went to fast it just went ballistic with the overspeed turbulences since a chopper normally aint fying 500 kts
Anyone else having trim not working with helos after last patch? Like, when I keep pressing the trim button it works normally, but when released it springs back to center
