Hi, is it possible to submit telemetry to my Rhino rudder too? It auto connects with my Rhino Jostick . On github i found -D or --device is used to specify the Rhino device USB VID:PID (default is "ffff:2055"). So it is only possible if i install the complete python project?

harry•5/10/23, 2:03 PM

Forgot to mention I mean with telemffb of course.

walmis•5/10/23, 2:36 PM

Rudder is not yet supported

harry•5/10/23, 2:41 PM

Thanks, than i will wait for it. I am very happy to have both , the joystick and the rudder. You do a great job!

Was this to fix a creaking issue? If so did it help?

JaegerOP•5/10/23, 3:49 PM

Yes and Yes. I had a little play while holding the big wheel. Can't remember in what direction though

LeLv30_Superbus•5/10/23, 7:16 PM

Nope, my stick doesn't make any sound whatsoever and neither does the fake leather. I do hear two different sounds on the video but this was the first time I heard them.

FYI on my Rhino creak.. Last night I lifted the boot and tightened the 4 screws holding on the top threaded piece. They were by no means loose, but I gave them an extra cinching down. Pretty much eliminated the creaking.

Number481•5/10/23, 7:35 PM

Number481•5/10/23, 7:36 PM

At some point I'm sure it will work its self just loose enough for the creak to return. I'll probably pull it apart and maybe add some graphite powder to the socket between the aluminum shaft and plastic part.

peachmonkey•5/11/23, 5:07 PM

hi, @walmis , how are you, sir.

Wanted to update you/follow up on my Mosquito FFB issues in DCS. With the help of another DCS users ( @eaf51_havebug ) and your VPForce ForceTrim/Forced option I was finally able to resolve my issue. Using DCS FFB curves with Mosquito actually works great as long as I use the VPforce forced trim instead of the in-game one!!! And it fixes a similar issue with P47 (albeit less pronounced, but still an issue). Again, thank you for developing/adding the Override feature to your application, it freaking rocks!!

Congrats for now. Haha. I loosened the gimble screw just a tad, and the creaking is gone when off... but actually got worse under load. scratches head

Oh, also @walmis mentioned being careful of overtightening there, since the shaft is aluminum.

The shaker is not implemented. However the FFB motors can shake the stick.

Troll 🇸🇪 🇳🇴•5/14/23, 5:05 PM

I bought a Meanwell LRS 350-24 powersupply for my DIY FFB project. I got two 86BLF04 motors from @walmis and I’m thinking of either mounting the powersupply inside the joystick base or separate from the base in a 3D printed enclosure. The PS is rated at almost 15A. How much current will the motors draw? I need to know what kind of DC contact I can use between the PS and the VP Force controller…

Rhino has 180W supply, 19V ~ 10A.
You could look at Laptop PSUs or go with a Meanwell LRS-350-24, it's powerful for it's price, but bulky.

slowmover•5/16/23, 7:45 AM

This power supply will be able to work with 4x57BLF03 motor? Cause i am thinking of building full FFB pit. (cyclic, collective,pedals)

walmis•5/16/23, 7:46 AM

yeah, meanwell should handle it

slowmover•5/16/23, 7:48 AM

this board can handle 4 motors or i will need a second one? Or there is another board which supports 4 motors?

walmis•5/16/23, 8:11 AM

You would require two boards for 2 pairs of motors

slowmover•5/16/23, 9:08 AM

Is there a link to find the datasheet of the 57BLF03? to see the Dimensions?

Has anyone used FFB kit to a collective?

Comrade_Weng•5/16/23, 10:26 AM

Is it possible to drive the motors in the kit continuously? The reason is I want to ensure that my belt is seated properly and run my pulleys slowly for a few revolutions. Its a bit difficult to drive by hand in my arrangement.

Sslowmover Has anyone used FFB kit to a collective?

walmis•5/17/23, 7:03 PM

Hey! You can verify if the Rhino detects it by setting grip type to debug and checking the data it gives out in the debut tab. If it's all FFs then maybe it's not making contact.

Yeah looks like intermittent contact. Could you try to give gentle push on the din socket on the adapter after you seated it.

I took mine apart and tightened what I believe was this screw (been a while)
