@thoatse So uh Okona.... it's been a few years and man have I learned a lot more about motion simulation. You'll remember me from MWO as Turbo Corvair if you don't recognize my name here.
Hey man, small world and long time no see.. was gonna say hi here to you last night when I noticed you on this channel but was violently ill after eating bad tacos at this work thing lol. Caught some glimpses of your projects over the years but we should do some pm's and catch up on things
I can't see a problem with dust, but time will tell :) The case itself is made from wood. The gimbal is 3D printed. For 57BLF motors it's fully sufficient. For 86BLF otoh the gimbal would be need to be metal.
So what is the gimbal made out of in production units? My ffb2 has lasted 10+ years, what can we expect from these? Or what do you think it'll last under stress
These things look amazing. Iβm completely new here. Is there a place I can find all the info that Iβm sure everyone asks, such as pricing and order queue?
can't tell about IL2, but it should work pretty good since the game has native FFB support. --- it's hard to describe, but the Rhino wipes the floor with any spring-centered joystick...
You could let it drift in dcs and fs2020 too by mixing in the aoa telemetry value which is accessible by the export.lua. Do you plan to get telemetry from fs2020 too ?
If it does not by default @walmis could implement it and make it adjustable linear by a slider or by a graph where you could adapt a function you define by some points. Perhaps this an idea for the future wishlist?
I want to ask some questions about the project/product, it is open source like i can build myself a similar one? If the answer is yes, will you sell only the USB board or the diagram of the board?
Check the FAQ channel. Design is not open source, but you can buy motors and electronics from VPforce and build your own gimbal like some guys have done. Check the Showcase channel for different designs.
