    Just found these guys. They call it a Rhino. Looks pretty clever how they do it. The website mostly just points to a Discord and there is apparently a waiting list. Looks like nicely cut plywood for the housing. 800€. That looks to be for the assembled, with kits 179€ to 439€ depending on motor/force options. Stick mounting is compatible with Virpil, Thrustmaster, and others that have that connection.

    https://vpforcecontrols.com/ (images from the Discord credit to VPForce) At the Discord, the faq has lots of information.

    Edit - ordered the middle size motor 2-axis kit as that should integrate better (and cheaper/faster) than waiting for the built version though will have to do some work to integrate it.

    What games support it/FFB joysticks in general? I have a Logitech G940 FFB Hotas that I got used for €25 and want to start using
