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

holy hell there's physical throw limit adapters now?

Number481OP•7/28/23, 2:52 PM

yeah.. they work great

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

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

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

Number481OP•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?

Number481OP•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

Jarmak•7/28/23, 7:33 PM

also what is the difference between spring strength proportional damping and regular damping?

walmis•7/28/23, 7:33 PM

But that + endstops can cause more stability issues

walmis•7/28/23, 7:34 PM

When spring gain increases, damping also needs to increase to keep it from shaking to death. That (spring strength proportional damping) parameter does that automatically.

Jarmak•7/28/23, 7:35 PM

is the other setting a constant regardless of spring gain?

walmis•7/28/23, 7:36 PM

Damping parameter is not dependent on spring gain

walmis•7/28/23, 7:38 PM

Also there is a RHINO-defaults.vpconf file in the configurator directory, that has the updated "factory" settings for the Rhino.

Jarmak•7/28/23, 7:40 PM

is there a reason to turn max psu current to 7 down from 9? the PSU rated at 9.5

walmis•7/28/23, 7:41 PM

Just a default safety margin, you can increase it

Jarmak•7/28/23, 7:43 PM

wow the new defaults are way better than what I had

Jarmak•7/28/23, 7:45 PM

think I discovered why

Jarmak•7/28/23, 7:50 PM

So I think it was my axis scaling being off

Jarmak•7/28/23, 7:51 PM

That's asking the point of the physical axis where 100% logical is reported, not taking the endstop into account

Jarmak•7/28/23, 7:52 PM

I had the values in relative to the endstop. But now that I've solved that issue I'm getting oscilation when I hit the endstops, any tips on easing that? lower spring frequency?

Jarmak•7/28/23, 8:11 PM

decided my solution is going to be print those deflection adapters

Jarmak•7/28/23, 9:11 PM

Wow yeah cleaning up my settings combined with the telemetry app and it's like Rhino 2.0

Reed•7/29/23, 12:48 AM

What and why the default setting updates ?

RReed What and why the default setting updates ?

Jarmak•7/29/23, 1:41 PM

Defaults didn't use to have good values already built in for a lot of the effects

Jarmak•7/29/23, 1:41 PM

like I was never able to get the balance spring working right, but the defaults work great

Reed•7/29/23, 1:41 PM

Ahh

Jarmak•7/29/23, 1:42 PM

My settings were built from a defaults file that was very old

Jarmak•7/29/23, 1:43 PM

also it looks like the frequency settings for a lot of the effects are higher, which I'm guessing is they were very conservative at first and got tweaked up as things were made/confirmed stable

Reed•7/29/23, 2:41 PM

I see

Leodis•7/29/23, 8:14 PM

Hello, is it possible to get the Rhino to treat the TM hornet grip trimmer switch as a HAT switch instead of buttons?

amadeus•7/29/23, 11:23 PM

is 15hz a new recommendation for spring filter? in the app you recommend a max of 12hz

Leodis•7/30/23, 12:14 AM

Anyone have any thoughts on how I can get rid of this play in the pitch axis where the grip (or extension) attaches to the base? It seems as though the mating face on the base has a hump on it, but when I check it with a straight edge it seems fine. Neither the grip nor extension have this play when I connect them to my Virpil base. Oh and if I turn the extension 90° (can’t with the grip because of the rigid connector) the play is still in the y-axis.

amadeus•7/30/23, 2:34 AM

If you unscrew the square ring around the base of the leather, you can lift it up and check the tightness on the bolts on the alu stem

LLeodis Anyone have any thoughts on how I can get rid of this play in the pitch axis whe...

Leodis•7/30/23, 2:37 AM

Thanks, I’ll check it, but it seems like the movement occurs above that. The connection between the aluminum stem and mounting adapter feels solid. But, maybe I just can’t create enough leverage without the stick attached.

Leodis•7/30/23, 3:15 AM

I guess it was that joint after all! Seems to be much better now (after tightening the screws) but I took the opportunity to print some throw limiters while the dust boot is off so I’ll test properly when they’re done.

Leodis•7/30/23, 3:20 AM

Sadly I damaged my TM Hornet grip in the process of taking it off and putting it back on so many times troubleshooting. I broke the center alignment post of the DIN connector and bent all the pins

. Managed to straighten them back up and everything seems to be working fine again. Is that a standard part I can get somewhere to be proactive in case it fails in the future?

kingjamez•7/30/23, 12:29 PM

It's a standard part called "DIN 5P". Some folks modify old keyboard DIN 6P connectors to work, but I just buy the real thing. You can find them on digikey in many forms. Here is one https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/cui-devices/MD-50/96914

Subsonic•7/30/23, 5:03 PM

Digikey ftw!
