Aumentaram ainda mais a extensão (52 cm a altura total) para aumentar o efeito alavanca e testar a estabilidade do suporte.

O "VirPil'treko" se manteve estável, já o coitado do "rack Casas Bahia" sacudiu todo. :P

Sokol, qual é o sensor que eles estão utilizando no Mongoos?
What remorseless emperor commands me
I no longer govern my soul
I am completely immersed in darkness
As I turn my body away from the sun

Não revelaram, mas é coisa do Mega_MOZG, não duvido que seja um TLE5010/11.

"The sensor provides about 13bit of useable resolution across the joysticks travel which means movements as small as 0.006* of a degree are detected! The electronics and software are created by mega_mogz, the mastermind behind the MMJoy2."

O controlador suspeito que seja baseado em ARM32.

* BTW - A VKB disse no forum russo que resolução acima de 10 bits é frescura, nenhum humano tem sensibilidade para fazer uso prático destes mínimos incrementos de ângulos. Mas seu controlador Njoy32 permite selecionar de 10 a 12 para agradar ao mercado.

Tinha falado em coisa de 130 Euros para a base do T-50, mas como o concorrente definiu o preço da sua base primeiro e mais caro do que isso: :P

"The standalone VPC MT-50 base will be €179.95".

Bem, enquanto a VKB continua indecisa com desenhos (e conselhos dos "Rasputins"), :P a VirPil esta "aberta para negócios": :)

O BYN do preço significa Belarusian Ruble, o Currency Converter do lado esquerdo mostra o preço nas principais moedas.

Os preços deles, pela qualidade dos produtos, estão excelentes.

Um Mongoos vale muito mais a pena do que um Warthog.

Por cerca de 290 euros (uns 930 reais) tem-se um stick com gimbal de metal e non contact sensors, além de um grip muito foda.

É claro que se contar com os tributos e com a taxa de remessa, fica mais caro. Mas, ainda assim, é bem melhor do que qualquer outra coisa que se pode arranjar por aqui.

VirPil MegaMoZG (MMJoy2) electronics.

[QUOTE=Cyph3r;3147157]25th May 2017 // Announcement No. 12
► VPC MongoosT-50 Electronics

The components used in the VPC MongoosT-50 control systems are of a proprietary design courtesy of the VirPil Controls design team.

The system consists of:
• VPC-Controller
• VPC 360° 16-bit Digital Sensors (iGMR-Based Angular Sensor)

Image

At the heart of the control system you will find our VPC-Controller. This is based around a modern RISC AVR processor provided by Atmel. Capable of 16 million instructions per second. Data updates for axes positions and button presses are processed at 500 times per second.

Supporting up to 8 axes and 128 buttons, the VPC MongoosT-50 electronics will be able to support any future VPC grips.

Image

The controller is compatible with both Windows and MacOS PCs, connecting via USB 2.0. The controller is automatically recognized without requiring any prior driver or software installations.

Image

The VPC sensors use contactless iGMR (magnetic field) technology, based on the latest ADC chips offering 16-bit precision. The sensor chip controls the DSP processor at a speed of 8 million instructions per second and connects to the controller via a 4wire proprietary comms protocol. The resulting accuracy is a huge 32,000 readings per 360 degrees in 1 count steps (0.01° / count). The resulting accuracy across the joystick’s travel means movements as small as 0.006° are detected!

Our VPC-Config software meets the needs of every player, transforming the VPCockpit controls into a fully configurable professional flight tool. More information on this in our next announcement!

Stay tuned for further announcements at the VIRPIL.COM website.[/QUOTE]

Os gringos estão se descabelando - tem duas semanas que o pessoal da VirPil
não da noticias e começou o "the sky is falling, they run away with our money". :rofl:

É até engraçado, os caras compram joystick para ostentar nos forums.

Tem um Warhog@ fanboy - já comprou um segundo throttle para substituir o "tijolado" e fez a burrice de comprar outro joystick no eBay para usar o grip porque o pinky button do primeiro pifou, sendo que poderia substituir o switch (o original é um barato de membrana) por um OMROM, ou mesmo comprar um novo grip da Tm (sem base) mais barato.

Esse cara comprou um Gunfighter - mas não testou porque não quer "estragar as configurações de botões" do DCSW (sendo que poderia configurar o Gunfighter só para o TF51-D que não usa e testar)
e encomendou (pagou) o T50. Isso sem falar que voa em todos os simuladores no "modo arcade". :P

21st June 2017 // Announcement No. 15
► VPC Pre-Orders Shipping Update

In the last week, the VPC Team had met together at the VPC HQ in Belarus to discuss the status of the current pre-orders including the VPC MongoosT-50 Flightstick & Base production.

As per our previous announcement, there had been a delay on our initial shipping estimate due to some minor improvements being made to the MongoosT-50 gimbal which required some retooling at the production factory. The production factory was then required to fulfil a large state order before moving on to ours. We apologise for this delay and appreciate everyone’s understanding during the wait.

However, we are now pleased to announce that the VPC MongoosT-50 Flightstick and Base orders will begin shipping on July 1st, with orders being dispatched on a first come, first serve basis.

We also have good news for users who have pre-ordered our VPC MongoosT-50 LH Grip and PC MongoosT-50 LH Flightstick. Production has already begun and these orders will also be shipping on July 1st!
