Hey m8 good news is that the RHINO will work out of the box so to say with IL2, IL2 has FFB effects implemented very well including trim moves the stick. What specifically do you need help with m8?

yeah you can DM if you like, don't worry too much tough, I've clogged this channel up with many questions! lol

FFlatSpin windows firewall?

skyPickle•2/14/23, 4:02 AM

if it was a firewall entry blocking teleplot then I wouldnt be able to send it data from the command line using netcat.

skyPickle•2/14/23, 4:03 AM

The hercules mod has no FFB. Prob a shortcoming of the mod that doesnt broadcast telemetry

AsBurli•2/14/23, 6:50 AM

I find it curious that this is only the case for me with the A10. This does not occur with the F/A18.

walmis•2/14/23, 7:07 AM

also F-5

KKhangirey my black box is flashing red when I use the VKB adapter

Jaeger•2/14/23, 8:22 AM

That's no problem. It just shows that the input from the base is missing, should not affect the stick.

Jaeger•2/14/23, 8:23 AM

Have the same and being able to use the stick, or flash a new one of I change them.

skyPickle•2/14/23, 4:23 PM

When i boot pc, stick thinks it’s centered

skyPickle•2/14/23, 4:24 PM

skyPickle•2/14/23, 4:24 PM

But it is not

skyPickle•2/14/23, 4:24 PM

skyPickle•2/14/23, 4:25 PM

Recalibration is good

skyPickle•2/14/23, 4:25 PM

skyPickle•2/14/23, 4:25 PM

But needed w every pc reboot

AsBurli•2/14/23, 4:29 PM

The Stick should be nearly in center position when you power it on

AndyHill•2/14/23, 4:30 PM

You are storing the config instead of just sending it?

skyPickle•2/14/23, 5:44 PM

Nope didnt store, i'll try that. I thought store was volatile

skyPickle•2/14/23, 5:45 PM

thank you

AndyHill•2/14/23, 5:52 PM

it's the opposite

AndyHill•2/14/23, 5:53 PM

send is temporary, store is permanentish

AAsBurli I don't quite understand. Is this behavior realistic. If I'm honest, it does bot...

sydost•2/14/23, 10:43 PM

Yes it is realistic that the stick has to be more forward when flying faster in aircraft with traditional controls and vice versa when you slow down the stick has to be further aft to maintain level flight. It is simulated like it is to give you a realistic amount of throw to each direction. Short available movement forwards and a lot of movement backwards. What probably isn’t entirely realistic is that the “neutral” position where the axis lines cross at the controls indicator (LCtrl + enter) the stick is tilted so much forward. Quite likely in the real aircraft that position is such that the grip would be pointing straight up. To fix that you’d need to tilt the Rhino base backwards when flying A10 or if that is not possible then I think you could shorten the Rhino’s forward throw with the VPForce configurator’s end stops function.

sydost•2/14/23, 11:04 PM

Well, I did a quick test and frankly didn’t understand how to use the end stops function. Instead I changed my Ymin calibration point to about halfway of the available forward pitch motion and that made the A10 fly straight and level with the stick pretty much centered.

Magpie•2/15/23, 1:55 AM

Yep that's what I did

KKhangirey my black box is flashing red when I use the VKB adapter

Ye Old Grog•2/15/23, 3:07 AM

I think you can turn that off in the VKB software. I went in and changed the status light colors but that was awhile ago and I can't explain it

Ssydost Well, I did a quick test and frankly didn’t understand how to use the end stops ...

PiNKSH!TOP•2/15/23, 4:32 AM

they endstop function is to limit the length of throw on each axis & even further the + & - of each axis can be adjusted. Basically if you set the end stop to 50% you will have only 50% of the length of throw of the stick, so set it at 30% & you only have 30% throw.

PiNKSH!TOP•2/15/23, 4:33 AM

So for the f-18 atm I'm using 55% on the x axis & 35% on the forward y axis & 55 on the rearward throw

skyPickle•2/15/23, 4:34 AM

Well, I found a way to graph the telemetry from DCS.

skyPickle•2/15/23, 4:34 AM

1) install teleplot and its dependencies
https://github.com/nesnes/teleplot

2) add this line to your export.lua
local telePORTlfs=require('lfs');dofile(telePORTlfs.writedir()..'Scripts/TelePORT.lua')
3) put the attached file below, TelePORT.lua, into your scripts folder
4)run teleplot
5) open a browser to http://127.0.0.1:8080/
6) run DCS, get in a jet and look at your browser

TelePORT.lua2.64KB

skyPickle•2/15/23, 4:34 AM

And it looks like this

skyPickle•2/15/23, 4:36 AM

You can get a graph of any of the variables in the green boxes in the left column simply by dragging that box up to the slot in the top left which is titles 'Drop here for new chart'. Then a new red chart (like the ones on the right side) shows up.

ddrake1984•2/15/23, 4:37 AM

Oh damn!!!

PiNKSH!TOP•2/15/23, 4:39 AM

omfg! that's sick!

PiNKSH!TOP•2/15/23, 4:39 AM

I'll probably never use it myself but it's still sick!

SskyPickle Well, I found a way to graph the telemetry from DCS.

walmis•2/15/23, 6:05 AM

You can also graph the data from VPforce-TelemFFB tool too - for example python main.py --teleplot=teleplotserver:port -p varA -p varB -p varCpython main.py --teleplot=teleplotserver:port -p varA -p varB -p varC you can get a name for varXvarX from the telemetry debug window.

ddrake1984•2/15/23, 6:06 AM

But, graphs

ddrake1984•2/15/23, 6:07 AM

Also, kinda cool if you can see “all” telem options available

PiNKSH!TOP•2/17/23, 6:31 AM

Hey guys does anyone know if the dcs telem app will work with mods too without needing to do any editing?

walmis•2/17/23, 6:53 AM

It should

Wwalmis It should

PiNKSH!TOP•2/17/23, 9:03 AM

oh awesome hopefully get time to test later tonight, at least the Blackhawk

PiNKSH!TOP•2/17/23, 9:04 AM

oooooh, I might even need to test out the loop back app to bind a force trim button?? or will the Telem App know it's a heli I'm in & do force trim automagically?

walmis•2/17/23, 9:04 AM

No, it's not that smart yet

PiNKSH!TOP•2/17/23, 9:05 AM

that's cool I'll get to test out the loopback app then

walmis•2/17/23, 9:05 AM

But DCS should handle force trim, no? HW trim should be only for MSFS ant the likes.

PiNKSH!TOP•2/17/23, 9:06 AM

Oh I'm talkingt about the blackhawk mod though? not sure if it's got ffb & force trim in it?

walmis•2/17/23, 9:07 AM

ah, no idea though

Wwalmis But DCS should handle force trim, no? HW trim should be only for MSFS ant the li...

PiNKSH!TOP•2/17/23, 9:08 AM

while I have your attention & we're talking about this, I think I asked before but it was bought up again recently; would you be able to make a ffb telemetry app for msfs2020 at any point? more asking if it's feasible.

Hey m8 good news is that the RHINO will work out of the box so to say with IL2, IL2 has FFB effects
