What is the issue with the TM F/A-18 grip? I was thinking about getting one to pair with my Rhino, so would be interested in hearing more about it.
RI have no issue with mine...
WI'll fix this, first it should load the values from [default] section and the update that with specific aircraft data

WThat's IRL ? I could implement this in the telemetry app 
MNo in dcs
MI have no clue what sticks do in reality, I'm just learning as we go
MIf you've got the a10c just put the flaps out and pull some aoa
MAnd you'll see it shake
WAh, so it's in stock DCS?
MYea
MI didn't think the a10c was modelled in it
MSo when it shook I was surprised
MI was just dicking around with flaps
MHey did you get in touch with the dude who does the m2000?
WDMs are blocked with him, so wasn't able to reach out directly.
MAhhhh dang
MI'm gonna try to pester him to message you 
MStall Warning Stick Shaker.
Stick shaker operation is a function of AOA vane, AOA indicator and interlocks with landing gear position and flaps switch. The mechanical stick shaker is mounted on the control stick just above the protective boot. The stick shaker provides mild agitation of the control stick 4 to 12 knots prior to wing stall in unaccelerated (1g) flight. Note that stick shaker is active only during landing approach configuration (landing gear down or flap switch in full down position).

MApparently what we have modelled is correct!
MI do remember the EAC changed the stick position too once when I pressed it
AJust finished building the plywood version as a prototype in MDF. A few small things I still have to adjust. Will publish the complete BOM then. The SheetMetal version will follow later.
MIts a great grip and has served me well, the Cons
- Its Heavy
- It wobbles (a bit of lego will fix that)
- Unless you have an extension you cant rotate it to the correct position.
I also have the winwing and prefer it over the TM but these are minor niggles really
S@walmis when is the next build of VP configurator coming out?
F!status
VHey @.flatspin,
So the last Shipped RHINO is #0041 on 2023-01-27
Average waiting time from preorder to shipped is 112 days, median is 110 days, max is 196 days
38 Rhinos are shipped in total

R@walmis any chance we could change the gun vibration to longitudinal (forward/backward) movement only? At the moment it feels like a diagonal movement. I think forward/backward might be more realistic?
Also stores/bomb drop maybe a lateral movement might be more realistic?

WYeah, it's diagonal right now, you can change the angles here, all are set to 45 now, 0 would be front-back, 90 sideways: https://github.com/walmis/VPforce-TelemFFB/blob/master/aircrafts.py#L130
RGreat! I will have a play 
PMan, the hype is getting to me. I'm squeezing that money like I'm about to throw it walmis' direction any moment now 
RWorks perfect. Only issue with F/A-18 is no weapon release effect coming through. CM and guns working fine.
Wthanks, I will take a look what's up with F-18 weapon release
P@walmis how much can be controlled in terms of fx if the developer hasn't implemented all the bells and whistles their end ? just out of interest ??
WYou mean via telemetry? Almost everything, there's full access to the hardware FFB features
MWhat is telemetry?
WDCS World Wiki - Hoggitworld.com
WWe can use this to add additional FFB effects
Pgreat stuff, thanks
MAh cool. I wonder if it adds any lag or stuttering
Wnope, it runs in a separate process
V:package: RHINO #0042 Has Shipped!
BOnly 130 to go before I get mine. 
TOnly 61 here
G
VI have tried the telemetry app...well it has a lot of potential...and in complement with simshaker it is really something
Magree really enjoying this, for me the aoa buffeting really helps in the F18 to get a good feel for the best turn perf
WDo share your changes, I'll integrate into the main branch
