Is there a way to implement a dead zone? I'm having trouble in a non-sim game where the Rhino is causing a constant scrolling in menus. Of course, I could disconnect it's USB but the cable is routed under my desk and it's a pain to get at.

Look into hidhide. You can hide your rhino from that program

This is the way. HIDhide was built to solve this problem exactly. Works great. I use it to hide the rhino and my custom sim controls when playing “normal” games like cyberpunk and diablo which have an embarrassingly limited control customization.

I've had the same issue with my adaptor. You're missing the metallic shield on the lower mini din connector which helps the connection. I replaced my din Mini 6 with one from Jaycar but accidentally caused the pads to lift. I now have a couple of new PCBs and have soldered mine directly to the rhino board for my DIY kit.

@walmis did you manage to get a new connector out to me buddy ??

Cuda•7/28/23, 4:23 AM

@walmis I'm likely going to need one too and I can send back my second one. I haven't had any luck with resoldering it.

Hello, is the rhino directly compatible with the warthog stick?

Do you need the inner piece or the whole assembly?

GUNSHIP_AlexG•7/28/23, 1:53 PM

If mounting the base to a motion rig, what would be the effective weight of the unit (i.e., the base itself in the absence of a power supply or anything that could effectively be on the floor and connected by wiring alone)?

walmis•7/28/23, 2:08 PM

Base without grip weighs in at 4.7kg

Wwalmis Do you need the inner piece or the whole assembly?

Cuda•7/28/23, 2:10 PM

Actually yea just the inner piece with microcontroller would be fine

Settings question: if the game is taking over the centering force instead of it being the spring force in the settings, is that considered a periodic effect?

JJarmak Settings question: if the game is taking over the centering force instead of it ...

Number481•7/28/23, 2:34 PM

no, that is controlled by the Spring slider

Number481•7/28/23, 2:35 PM

the spring setting defines the max.. the game could make it lower or non existent

Jarmak•7/28/23, 2:36 PM

so what is going on there, is the game invoking a spring force function in the firmware?

Jarmak•7/28/23, 2:36 PM

Because my centering force in the apache is way stronger than in the F18

Jarmak•7/28/23, 2:36 PM

"centering" in the case of force trim

Number481•7/28/23, 2:37 PM

its part of the FFB sdk library. Each module in DCS implements their own FFB, so its not going to be universal across modules.

Jarmak•7/28/23, 2:38 PM

if I make the spring force sticky will that mean it's what it's set to instead of what the maximum is?

Jarmak•7/28/23, 2:39 PM

The purpose of these questions is I'm trying to tighten up the centering force on the 18 and Harrier

Number481•7/28/23, 2:39 PM

Yes. But it also wont disengage the spring if you disable force trim in a helicopter

Jarmak•7/28/23, 2:40 PM

Yes, but I have a seperate profile for helos so that's fine

Number481•7/28/23, 2:41 PM

If you use TelemFFB (wip version), there is a file you can use to define Rhino profiles per module

Number481•7/28/23, 2:41 PM

Its a new thing walmis implemented (I haven't actually tested it yet)

Jarmak•7/28/23, 2:42 PM

That's tempting, I've avoided it so far because I'm wary of adding even more exports

Number481•7/28/23, 2:42 PM

Jarmak•7/28/23, 2:42 PM

I'm already exporting for WW and Simshaker

Jarmak•7/28/23, 2:42 PM

and streamdeck

Jarmak•7/28/23, 2:43 PM

maybe I'll try it today

Number481•7/28/23, 2:44 PM

check out https://discord.com/channels/965234441511383080/1091401951951982602 I added some documentation for TelemFFB yesterday (basic setup info and links to the releases)

Number481•7/28/23, 2:47 PM

the export is pretty light weight in the grand scheme of things.. prob on par with Simshaker

where do the config files have to live for it to load them?

Number481•7/28/23, 7:10 PM

I believe you need to put them in the root folder of TelemFFB

walmis•7/28/23, 7:17 PM

FIY, The config loading stuff will work properly in the next firmware/sw release

Wwalmis FIY, The config loading stuff will work properly in the next firmware/sw release

Number481•7/28/23, 7:18 PM

that would explain why everything went sideways when I just tried to test it

Jarmak•7/28/23, 7:19 PM

What's the max motor current for the rhino motors?

walmis•7/28/23, 7:19 PM

30A

Jarmak•7/28/23, 7:21 PM

Why would allowing damper gain above 0% induce vibration/oscilation? do I have a Lpf setting off somewhere?

Number481•7/28/23, 7:25 PM

I keep my damper at around %20.. no issues. THe only one that induces oscillation for me is friction

Jarmak•7/28/23, 7:27 PM

maybe I need to turn friction off

Jarmak•7/28/23, 7:28 PM

nope

walmis•7/28/23, 7:29 PM

Need to see your settings to make any guesses

Jarmak•7/28/23, 7:30 PM

It's just very intense, it stops oscillating at 2% gain

Jarmak•7/28/23, 7:30 PM

walmis•7/28/23, 7:32 PM

Try spring filter @ 15Hz, and set spring strength proportional damping to something like 70%

Jarmak•7/28/23, 7:32 PM

tangentially: is there any other way to increase my spring force? after feeling the damper make it solid as a rock I know the motor can cause more resistance, but I have my spring force at max and it is not very strong

walmis•7/28/23, 7:32 PM

You can use spring mapping to increase gain
