Hey Walmis I'm getting some funny effects in IL2 with the A-20, I think it might be related to inertia? The stick in game is sort of jumping along the axis, especially when I trim to full nose down, when I move the stick it jumps back to middle of Y axis. When I try to log the data it stops when I alt tab back? is there anyway to log the data & save the log file?

Not sure what to make of this, too little information. Need something more to go on.
The data log button should stay activated irrespective from alt-tab status. Data is logged to samples.csv file inside the configurator folder.

Is it possible you have bound two different controllers for the main axis and they conflict?

getting late for me atm, I'll jump on IL2 tomorrow & try to capture it better for you.

walmis•4/29/23, 3:59 PM

Yeah, I see some oscillations

walmis•4/29/23, 3:59 PM

can you show me your settings?

Yeah, turn off breakout force

walmis•4/29/23, 4:01 PM

that one is a bit broken with trim

Wwalmis that one is a bit broken with trim

PiNKSH!TOP•4/29/23, 4:02 PM

ahh ok cool, I just use it like a deadzone in the centre

walmis•4/29/23, 4:02 PM

and oscillations are probably because of untuned friction settings

can you also expand the

should I set it like that for all my profiles?

yeah would be best for all

I’m looking at a Rhino FFB Board Rev 1.2 for a friend of mine. Looks like he may have killed the 3v3 reg. Is there any documentation for this board that I can look at?

smitty•5/1/23, 11:37 AM

Thanks Whitey

HereComesWhitey•5/1/23, 9:25 PM

A schematic?

HereComesWhitey•5/1/23, 9:25 PM

Boardview?

HereComesWhitey•5/1/23, 9:26 PM

Even just a BOM would help a little

Wwalmis yeah would be best for all

TC-Durham•5/2/23, 12:12 AM

So are you saying that these should be the new default settings?

HHereComesWhitey Even just a BOM would help a little

walmis•5/2/23, 5:25 AM

Hey, the LDO is this one here, it's XC6206 but any other SOT23-3 should work fine:

TTC-Durham So are you saying that these should be the new default settings?

walmis•5/2/23, 5:27 AM

Yeah, I've updated the defaults, there's a file included in the configurator directory in

configs/rhino-defaults.vpfconf

HereComesWhitey•5/2/23, 9:29 AM

Thank you. I don’t believe I have any 3 pin ones on hand (Just some MIC5219-3.3) so I’ll have to order one or 2

@walmis Hey m8, I'm getting a clunk again when moving along the x axis, the gear is tight, so are the grub screws. Any idea what could be causing this?

PiNKSH!TOP•5/3/23, 11:07 AM

when I move it right & it makes the clunk feeling, after that the physical stick is sitting to right but the software says it's centered

PPiNKSH!T when I move it right & it makes the clunk feeling, after that the physical stick...

walmis•5/3/23, 11:47 AM

Hey, if you can't make a clunk with your hand while holding the large gear it's probably still the small pulley that's slipping.

Wwalmis Hey, if you can't make a clunk with your hand while holding the large gear it's ...

PiNKSH!TOP•5/3/23, 11:49 AM

the small gear with the two grub screws? both of those are tight, should I look at pulling that gear off & see if the shaft has been dented by the grub screws slipping?

walmis•5/3/23, 11:51 AM

Yeah, you can even try to reattach the small gear in a different orientation

Wwalmis Yeah, you can even try to reattach the small gear in a different orientation

PiNKSH!TOP•5/3/23, 11:52 AM

ok I'll try that, what size are those grub screws, just in case I want to replace them?

walmis•5/3/23, 11:52 AM

They're M4 3mm length DIN 916

walmis•5/3/23, 11:54 AM

Before you start doing stuff, can you record some data with that clunk happening?

PiNKSH!TOP•5/3/23, 12:20 PM

Sorry I missed htis, hang on

PiNKSH!TOP•5/3/23, 12:20 PM

one of the grub screws won't come out

Wwalmis Before you start doing stuff, can you record some data with that clunk happening...

PiNKSH!TOP•5/3/23, 12:25 PM

nah I don't wanna run it, it's just going to slip more on the shaft & not being able to remove this grub screw is going to be painful

PiNKSH!TOP•5/3/23, 12:25 PM

the heads on those grub screws are rather shallow

PiNKSH!TOP•5/3/23, 12:26 PM

what's the exact alan key size that you used for these?

PiNKSH!TOP•5/3/23, 12:27 PM

I'm going to have to try super gluing the alankey to the grub screw head so I can get it out

walmis•5/3/23, 12:38 PM

It's 2mm hex

got the log for you m8

PiNKSH!TOP•5/3/23, 12:41 PM

I'll have to wait till tomorrow to look any further at this, I can't find my alan key set, & the alan key I have here that got one grub screw out might not be the right size & I don't want to burn the grub screw's head

PPiNKSH!T Click to see attachment

walmis•5/3/23, 12:49 PM

Yeah, from the plot def looks like slipping pulley

Wwalmis Yeah, from the plot def looks like slipping pulley

PiNKSH!TOP•5/3/23, 12:51 PM

ok, so what should I do to prevent this from hapening again, obviously once I fix it I can check the grub screws before use, but what should I do to fix this? Take the gear off & turn the shaft then put it back on, maybe some lock-tite on the grub screws?
