@walmis Hi, I have your Rhino base with an 20 cm extension and a VPC Alpha PRIME grip. Now everty time I press one of the 4 way hats I get multiple inputs. In the configurator I seleced the apha grip. I hope somebody finds the step I'm doing wrong.

“Use FFB trim implementation” should be ticked in. Reckon that’s your problem right there

Anthony•6/23/23, 1:54 PM

Though “Spring” looks like it might cause some issues since you’ve set pitch to just 1% and have it override game ffb. I wouldn’t say that I’m certain of it, but I imagine that it has the potential for causing issues.

Try unticking all “Sticky”, tick “Use FFB trim implementation” and see what happens re FFB trim, so we might figure out if that’s on the correct path

walmis•6/23/23, 1:58 PM

You need to uncheck "sticky". That will override any effects the game sends.

Subsonic•6/23/23, 1:58 PM

As I mentioned, it shows off now since it is just off, but I have set it to on as it should be

Wwalmis You need to uncheck "sticky". That will override any effects the game sends.

Subsonic•6/23/23, 1:59 PM

The "spring" sticky?

walmis•6/23/23, 1:59 PM

Yes, disable that.

Subsonic•6/23/23, 2:01 PM

Thanks.....Will do!
ALso, meant to ask....should I use the VP Hardwre Force trim? Or just use the DCS settings and leave VP force Trim off and map the game trim controls as normal?

“Sticky” means that your software settings will override in game FFB. In DCS, “Spring” is the only effect that’s implemented though AFAIK

walmis•6/23/23, 2:16 PM

Yes, spring and some periodic shake/rumble effects

amadeus•6/23/23, 2:23 PM

Also - spring shouldn’t be at 0% either? /cc @walmis?

walmis•6/23/23, 2:24 PM

Oh yes, def should not be zero

Subsonic•6/23/23, 2:25 PM

Yup, understood that from all the docs and chats, never thought it would override teh trim in that way though

Wwalmis Oh yes, def should not be zero

Subsonic•6/23/23, 2:26 PM

saturation?

amadeus•6/23/23, 2:26 PM

He’s talking about the screenshot I linked — put all those sliders at 100%

amadeus•6/23/23, 2:27 PM

Only tune them down if you find a game is applying too much effects

SSubsonic Click to see attachment

amadeus•6/23/23, 2:28 PM

Subsonic•6/23/23, 2:28 PM

ahh, the main slider, I see
Was not going to use spring at all until I found a convo with walmis and jager about center sensitivity and spring

Subsonic•6/23/23, 2:28 PM

I am going to drop it all together and tweak if needed

Subsonic•6/23/23, 2:29 PM

I am getting it now...if you turn on an effect, the slider itself needs to be at some value over 0. If you dont want any strength to the effect, disable it in effects tab

amadeus•6/23/23, 2:29 PM

I’d recommend not changing any settings in the app unless you’re trying to tune an existing plane, spring centering is what gets adjusted in the f-14 when trimming

amadeus•6/23/23, 2:30 PM

Those big sliders also change how much a game can apply

amadeus•6/23/23, 2:30 PM

You basically told the game — never apply a spring

Subsonic•6/23/23, 2:30 PM

Thanks, going to drop everything back to vanilla, get trim working, then tweak from there

amadeus•6/23/23, 2:33 PM

Given your green role color, sounds like you built a custom setup, but on the default rhino — we have that encoder dial we can turn to manually in real-time adjust how strong the spring effect is. Not sure if you added the equivalent for your setup, but probs best to just that dial that in real time to turn up/down the spring if you don’t like it so strong

kingjamez•6/23/23, 2:38 PM

I just tried Trim on my system. I have nothing sticky, and only master gain set to 100%, then controlled by the potentiometer. and the only thing I did to DCS was set the trim buttons. My trim moves with the button presses.

Subsonic•6/23/23, 2:41 PM

correct, DIY build. Currently have one pot set to friction intensity and the other one I have changed between periodic effects and damper.
I do think my issue is sticky spring which I will remove all together and if I do add it I will set pot 2 to spring effects or master gain.
Thanks!!
