AegisFX Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Is it wrong that I'm angry at Saitek for calling the X-55 "Rhino" and it not being an F-18 stick? I'm not the only one thinking it, right?

MudRat02 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Is it wrong that I'm angry at Saitek for calling the X-55 "Rhino" and it not being an F-18 stick? I'm not the only one thinking it, right? Yeah I thought it a strange choice of name. Why else would you call a stick the 'Rhino' if not to evoke the Super Hornet? :huh: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
questerymj Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 hegykc, Will you make AH-64D grips? I'm looking to have a set of them, even they are just 3D printed prototype that need finishing by myself...:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AegisFX Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 I'm just stirring the pot, but Rhino will always and "phorever" refer to the F-4 Phantom. Period. Full stop. I think the dainty F/A-18's claim to the name is illegitimate. I mean the only reason they use it is to differentiate a Hornet from a Super Hornet on the radio around the boat. :P Doesn't look like that Rhino either. :joystick: Owned: Ryzen 3900x, MSI AMD 470x mobo, 32gb 3200MHz ram, Gtx 1660 Ti, 970 Evo Plus 500GB, MsFFB2, TIR5, TMWH+18c Stick, MFG Crosswinds, Buttkicker/SSA, WinWing F-18C .

MudRat02 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Haha yeah if we concede that the Phabulous Phantom is the Rhino, Saitek has still done us a disservice ;) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

X93355 Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Short answer, if it has a sim, it will have a set of replica controls. Hegykc, if you are able to pull this off, you will be set for life. Question for you: The warthog for me feels great, love the weight of it, so are your plans to make these replica's feel strong, feel correct? Concerns for me would be warranty given this would be for global demand and I for one am nearly as far away as you can get. Would be interesting to see what the customer numbers would be for you i.e. how many want what controller? FYI - I'd love an F-18C throttle and stick, UH-1H collective and stick for starters.
