Some exciting news for VRSimpits: We're moving to a new workshop! https://www.vrsimpits.com/post/vrsimpits-is-moving-to-a-new-home In other news, the first production run of Tampier quadrants has been completed and sold to happy customers. Another production run is forthcoming after I have moved into the new workspace, and I will also restart production of SopGrips in the new workshop. Many more exciting things are yet to come!

VRSimpits Tampier Quadrant Pre-Order is Open! Greetings All, The first production run of five Tampier units is in process now, and on track to be ready to ship towards the end of this month, with subsequent production runs hopefully occurring monthly thereafter!

Sidewinder FFB2 potential problem
vonrickenbecker replied to -322FG-Wimwam's topic in Hardware, Software and Controllers
I use a MSFFB2 as well, and I know exactly the feeling you describe. I believe you are not feeling the gears themselves (as they are quite smooth when power is off, as a previous comment mentioned), but rather you are feeling fluctuations in motor torque as the the segments of the rotor and stator pass one another. I noticed that this feeling increased on my stick after I boosted the electric current to the motors by 2x, which would seem to support that theory. -
Hello All, I am very happy to announce that the VRSimpits Tampier Quadrant is beginning production now, and will be available to order just after new years! I didn't mean to time this announcement to coincide with the announcement of Flying Circus Vol. 2, but it's a happy coincidence indeed! For more information about the quadrant, head over to www.vrsimpits.com, and stay tuned to hear when the order button goes live!
