is the latest Ryzen chipset driver from AMD installed?

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 3:36 AM

is Disable Global C-State in the BIOS enabled? if it is then disable it

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 3:37 AM

can you run prime95 on you computer for a while?

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 3:38 AM

or convert a video in handbrake

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 3:40 AM

and see if your computer crashes

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 3:47 AM

try out all the ports on the back of the motherboard, there are cpu ports and chipset ports. the faster ones like usb3.0 and usb c are generally the cpu ports, also the newer the port like if ts usb 3 gen 2 or somethingits more likelyto have better signal integrity then just a usb 3 or a usb 2. for some people this happens only cpu ports or mother board ports only and for others it happens on both

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 3:54 AM

next step would be to buy a powered usb hub or powered pcie card

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 3:54 AM

lots of people say this one worked

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 3:56 AM

but if you find another cheaper where you live with sata power like this one then give it a try

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 3:59 AM

also try plug in all other usbs in the usb hub and plug in the rhino one alone in the best usb port on the back of your motherboard like usb c or the turquoise ports, those should be the best

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 4:00 AM

this might decrease the noise from the other usbs just enough for it to work

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 4:02 AM

try multiple different usb hubs, 3.0, powered , non powered, pcie, etc to try and get the cleanest signal possible

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 4:07 AM

oh one more is to try out pcie 3 in bios

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 4:09 AM

here is another idea

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 4:09 AM

use a really short usb cable from the rhino and plug it straight into a powered usb 3.0 hub with good quality thick shielded wire

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 4:09 AM

then the usb hub into the computer

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 4:12 AM

try adding a faraday cage or some kind shielding around the rhino logic board so it doesnt get affected by the magnetic currents from all the other components

HomeOfMomoOP•12/15/22, 4:35 AM

Wow, that's a lot to digest. I did update AMD's chipset driver to the latest and saw no improvement. I'll try one thing at a time as you suggested. I think it's pretty clear now that it has something to do with signal integrity.

SwiftVengeance•12/15/22, 4:38 AM

Yeah I think so too. Basically try to get the best signal possible and do the settings changes.

Roger, thanks!

PiNKSH!T•12/15/22, 9:11 AM

Hey sorry if I'm missing something obvious, but is there any documentation/tutorials of any kind to show me how to go about initial set up of the Rhino base?

walmis•12/15/22, 9:15 AM

Hey, there's the in-depth technical guide about the system: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNhRD2Bsb8o
This one was made for the kits, but applies to the Rhino too.

Haha I'm going through the same thing right now

Magpie•12/15/22, 9:15 AM

Is crazy

F14 omg

Ha ha, like I said, sorry about missing the obvious!

Magpie•12/15/22, 9:16 AM

I'm just restarting dcs all the time when I make changes

MMagpie I'm just restarting dcs all the time when I make changes

PiNKSH!T•12/15/22, 9:17 AM

right, well I need to do the firmware possibly & just install the software etc. really just want to get the Ka50 set up & go test this thing out!

Magpie•12/15/22, 9:19 AM

Finally just figured out I had the wrong ffb axis inverted

Magpie•12/15/22, 9:19 AM

F5 trim was driving me insane

Magpie•12/15/22, 9:20 AM

Hey if the stick is waaaay more further forward than I think it should be for the f5

Magpie•12/15/22, 9:20 AM

Do I change a setting?

walmis•12/15/22, 9:21 AM

I think that's the way it is in DCS

walmis•12/15/22, 9:21 AM

the F-5 has short FWD travel, and much more AFT travel ?

walmis•12/15/22, 9:21 AM

Can't rememeber exactly

Magpie•12/15/22, 9:22 AM

Yeah

Magpie•12/15/22, 9:22 AM

Maybe I have to change the endstop

Magpie•12/15/22, 9:22 AM

It's there a way to make changes in the app on the fly without having to restart dcs?

walmis•12/15/22, 9:23 AM

Oh it messes up DCS if you change settings in the app ?

walmis•12/15/22, 9:23 AM

Generally it should work without restarting DCS

Magpie•12/15/22, 9:23 AM

Nah the stick just goes dead sometimes

walmis•12/15/22, 9:24 AM

Ah, I'll need to have a look

Magpie•12/15/22, 9:24 AM

Ahhhh gimme a day to trial and error it

Magpie•12/15/22, 9:24 AM

Amazing dude tho thanks so much

Wwalmis the F-5 has short FWD travel, and much more AFT travel ?

Magpie•12/15/22, 9:25 AM

Like in game the stick is vertical but in the simpit it's almost at the front stop

PiNKSH!T•12/15/22, 9:25 AM

Is it a viable strategy to make one profile each for helicopters, fly-by-wire & warbirds/ga then make copy & tweak from there? or just easier to make a seperate one for each aircraft as you come across it?
