Yeah m8 that's what I've used for MSFS2020 it's decent, though no support for force trim in heli's Walmis' VPforce software will do force trim for you. I asked Walmis about a Telemetry App like the DCS one for MSFS & he said it was definitely possible & I think something he may do in the future but don't quote me on that part.

WWill3D As I haven't got my FFB stick working yet, are people using XPForce for MSFS2020...

I'm using it with my hot rodded MSFFII until my new one is ready. So far so good, seems to do what it's supposed to do

Will3D•2/16/23, 6:07 PM

Cool thanks for confirming. Yeah, as I have a motion rig, it's always bothered me that all this telemetry info was available, but not being used for FFB. I have some Brunner units and they just use their own software to do what XPForce does. In fact I would guess XPForce is a bit of a knock off of the Brunner software.

Will3D•2/16/23, 6:08 PM

Do we have to do anything special for DCS ? Or is that completely native ?

AndyHill•2/16/23, 6:28 PM

There's native and then there's some kind of telemetry project going on in the background, walmis & co can probably fill you in

AndyHill•2/16/23, 6:28 PM

some modules are good natively, some not quite perfect

Will3D•2/16/23, 6:38 PM

Ok great. I did hear the f14 was good. But I don’t fly it! Generally more ww2. Feeling cannon fire in the motion rig is something else.

AndyHill•2/16/23, 6:40 PM

the ww2 modules I've tried so far have been pretty good natively

Will3D•2/16/23, 9:09 PM

That’s good to know. Thx

As Andy said there are different FFB effects per module it denpends on the Module maker & what they added, the F-14 is pretty much top shelf FFB effects from what I hear. VPforce has a Telemetry App for DCS that will give FFB effects to all the aircraft & can be tweaked also per plane, this doesn't overwrite any of the native effects but will just add the missing effects

Thanks. So where does one get the telemetry app? BTW, where in Aus are you ? I'm in country SA. Don't think there are too many of us here...

download & install python & git, I suggest doing it through git, it makes the updating etc. alot easier

Ok walmis, you're going to need to slow down. At this rate I'm running out of time to order a grip and getting it delivered before the rhino arrives

PiNKSH!TOP•2/18/23, 6:07 AM

hey m8, I can only speak for the Huey & Ka 50 bs2 I have the bs3 but not had time ti do my bindings etc. yet. With the VPforce DCS Telemetry App running in the Huey I get effects for most of the flight, etl etc. but the biggest game changer for me when it comes to the RHINO & flying Heli's is the force trim, that has been huge to me, it's made things feel so much better especially for hovering stationary, well somewhat stationary

. The Ka 50 has been just as improved by the RHINO though I haven't flown it yet with the Telem app too, on the Telem app it's great, it adds effects without over riding any default effects from the module itself. I've been intending on testing the free Blackhawk mod with the RHINO & telemetry app I've flown it before owning the Rhino but not since, also for mods like this if they don't support ffb or force trim natively the VPforce telem app should take over completely & you can use the VPforce config app to bind force trim buttons to your stick also. I'm planning on testing this out today. As for your question as to what dcs heli is best supported, I think the Vpforce Telemetry App will make them all great with the Rhino so mainly look for the best flight model. Also that blackhawk is really good.
