hey. I saw your video on youtube and contacted you there. I am interested in ordering/purchasing a complete unit. I it works with the FCLS stick from thrustmaster. I suppose it would also work with the Hornet stick ?

Hi, yeah Thrustmaster grips will work out of the box. You can DM me for details for the preorder

harry•6/1/22, 11:32 AM

Hi walmis, is it possible to fly with the stick turned around 180 degrees when you look from above? I think than the stick could be nearer to the seat.

walmis•6/1/22, 11:34 AM

Hi, yeah it's possible to invert the axes, @flashgod_vr did that setup, turned around 180 degrees.

harry•6/1/22, 11:35 AM

Thank you!

Cool thanks @flashgod_vr

Made some progress on a VKB adapter, gonna order those mini contact PCBs with the next order.

No way thats great!

Vulkan•6/3/22, 6:59 AM

Any details on how much this will cost?

walmis•6/3/22, 6:59 AM

Will very much depend on the CNC quote I get

Wwalmis Will very much depend on the CNC quote I get 😅

Vulkan•6/3/22, 7:00 AM

ah its CNCed I geuss I better start saving my pennies lol

slowmover•6/3/22, 9:29 AM

One question. If I fly multycrew with heuy as pilot and the copilot is flying the helicopter the cyclic will move or not ?? Have anyone tryed it ?

walmis•6/3/22, 9:30 AM

Well that's an interesting question, would be really cool if it worked

walmis•6/3/22, 9:33 AM

@bignewy any idea if that is implemented in DCS?

Sslowmover One question. If I fly multycrew with heuy as pilot and the copilot is flying th...

BIGNEWY•6/3/22, 9:35 AM

you have to hand permission to the co-pilot to take controls.

BIGNEWY•6/3/22, 9:35 AM

if we allow both to control at the same time things get funky pretty quickly

Richard•6/3/22, 9:38 AM

also if @_slowmover means does the stick move when the remote pilot moves the stick then I would argue that it shouldn't because it could result in physical harm because the pilots are not in sight of each other and lacking visual clues about movement that you get in the real thing.

BIGNEWY•6/3/22, 9:39 AM

yes very true

Mike (Mugs)•6/3/22, 9:41 AM

The brunner has an option to link both devices together using a cable which allows both to move at the same time I think its via CANBus

slowmover•6/3/22, 10:13 AM

Yes you give permission to the copilot to fly

AndyHill•6/3/22, 11:04 AM

Am I the only one who immediately thought of getting up and pushing the stick as far back as fast as I can if it's linked to my copilot's stick?

walmis•6/3/22, 11:05 AM

Nope

Flashgod_VR•6/3/22, 11:24 AM

there is a problem with FFB and multicrew in the F-14. i tested it a while ago... can't tell if it's still happening. if you are the RIO and a human pilot takes control, your FFB stick will start moving too...

FFlashgod_VR there is a problem with FFB and multicrew in the F-14. i tested it a while ago.....

Mike (Mugs)•6/3/22, 11:25 AM

that sounds like a feature !

Flashgod_VR•6/3/22, 11:26 AM

not if you have bound the stick axis to RIO functions...

FFlashgod_VR 😅 not if you have bound the stick axis to RIO functions...

Mike (Mugs)•6/3/22, 11:27 AM

true, will have to try that in the other multicrew jets

Kapti•6/3/22, 12:22 PM

I don't remember exactly what happens, but I do remember that while in multi-crew if you hit the trim button the other person feels it.

Kapti•6/3/22, 12:23 PM

So there is something there.

walmis•6/6/22, 10:33 AM

Motors coming along nicely.

Keksstar•6/6/22, 6:53 PM

Hello

How can I sign up for an Rhino?

walmis•6/6/22, 6:55 PM

Hey! You can DM me ;)

maxonly•6/6/22, 7:14 PM

Will you be making a website where we can buy it in a later stage?

Mmaxonly Will you be making a website where we can buy it in a later stage?

walmis•6/6/22, 7:16 PM

Yup! It's in progress

maxonly•6/6/22, 7:18 PM

@walmis thnx, I'm building a full p-51d cockpit and I'm thinking about integrating a rhino into it. Could you tell me how high the base is?

walmis•6/6/22, 7:19 PM

Sure, one sec, I'll share the drawing

maxonly•6/6/22, 7:26 PM

Thnx. The rhino is the only ffb base that works with the direct input drivers. It might fill a gap in the market. Could be big. Keep it up

walmis•6/6/22, 7:29 PM

Thanks!

@walmis Do you have any plans for the motors fit to a collective? Is that possible?

walmis•6/8/22, 8:13 AM

It's possible with the existing system no problem.

walmis•6/8/22, 8:14 AM

Just the proper mechanics are necessary

slowmover•6/8/22, 8:14 AM

Have you tried that ?

walmis•6/8/22, 8:15 AM

I'll try with a rhino sideways later

walmis•6/8/22, 8:16 AM

but for a proper collective a bit of counterweight would be beneficial, as to not waste power counterabalancing it constantly

slowmover•6/8/22, 8:17 AM

i wanted to avoid that but i know what you mean

BikerSid•6/10/22, 11:44 AM

My motor kit arrived, thanks a lot. It'll be a while before I do any tests or experiments though, I have to check out the sim and then the real aircraft before I make any decisions

walmis•6/10/22, 12:22 PM

Awesome. Keep us posted

BikerSid•6/10/22, 12:48 PM

I really need some engineering drawings of a Spitfire yoke. I've got a comprehensive book that contains blueprints of the entire MKIX but they are more focussed on the airframe. When I do the simulator session I'll ask the guys there how they acquired their blueprints ( I'm assuming they use a Brunner system, it definitely has FFB or it wouldn't be CAA approved for training )
I will make 'puppy dog eyes' at them until I get the drawings I need
