@_blave could be any number of things that aren't implemented properly in that aircraft, or in a way that TelemFFB isn't expecting (or a legit TelemFFB bug...)

But at the very least you should add the aircraft to your config as a helicopter:

[500E.*]
type=Helicopter

[500E.*]
type=Helicopter

[500E.*]
type=Helicopter

[500E.*]
type=Helicopter

@walmis Could have the wiring diagram for the 32 input Shift register to “Main Board” - I used the diagram given by @subsonic1748 but no joy.

ahhh sorry, missed that you were using the shift reg

@subsonic1748 no probs buddy, just a quick swap of the pins and got it working

Thank you November Four Eight One. I'll give that a go!

blave549•9/21/23, 11:39 PM

OK, that worked. I added this to the user config file:

[500E.*]
type=Helicopter
runway_rumble_intensity = 0.5
rotor_blade_count=5
etl_start_speed = 15
etl_stop_speed = 24
etl_effect_intensity = 0.25
overspeed_shake_start = 60
overspeed_shake_intensity = 0.2

I googled "translational lift" and more than one source says that it starts between 16 and 24 knots, so I upped the entry speed. I cannot find a reference as to when the vibration goes away. But what I did notice is that the 500E's vibration is of a higher frequency than the Cabri, which is as it should be (5 vs. 3 blades). Nice work, 481.

Bblave549 OK, that worked. I added this to the user config file: [500E.*] type=Helicopter...

Number481OP•9/21/23, 11:49 PM

sweet... keep in mind those speeds in the config are in meterts/second. So rougly cut the knot values in half (.514) to be exact. So that would be 8 to 12 m/s.

Or (I think walmis added this).. you can say 15kt and 24kt and it will be auto-converted at runtime

to adjust these programatically, i.e. from TelemFFB config.ini

So, anybody using a 20 cm extension that would be willing to share his settings ?
Thanks

Does anyone know if p3d would support simple stall stick shakers and g force load increase, along with xplane? It may not be tested but my rhino has just shipped so I can test, but just waning to know!

Mustang 1-1•9/22/23, 3:06 PM

P3d has sim connect so I think it would work

Number481OP•9/22/23, 3:07 PM

xplane has no native FFB at all, and the Telemetry software doesnt support it yet (will require a complete new effects module similar to the one for MSFS).
P3D is a fork of old FS and thus has simconnect support, but it is so ancient I don't know if it will work with pysimconnect (which is the underlying simconnect support that TelemFFB uses)

Mustang 1-1•9/22/23, 3:10 PM

Ag. My brunner works nice with xplane. Well, thanks.

Mustang 1-1•9/22/23, 3:10 PM

Brunner works best with xplane.

Mustang 1-1•9/22/23, 3:10 PM

But the rhino is way different

MMustang 1-1 Brunner works best with xplane.

walmis•9/22/23, 3:11 PM

I guess that's with the Brunner's telemetry software?

Mustang 1-1•9/22/23, 3:13 PM

Yeah. You don’t even need hardware trim. Xplane automatically sends the data to brunner. If you are interested with anything brunner, ask me. I have their pedals and stick. If you even want to test it I can help with that.

Mustang 1-1•9/22/23, 3:13 PM

As I am moving to rhino now.

Number481OP•9/22/23, 5:13 PM

am I correct in my understanding that for X-Plane it requires you to edit each aircraft to change the trim behavior so that it works properly (software trim method)?

Mustang 1-1•9/22/23, 5:17 PM

Yes. It sucks but in the end it’s really nice, and realistic.

ToreDL87•9/22/23, 6:16 PM

Just got my Rhino today, reading the readme and trying to get things working, first order of business seems to be an error when trying to run TelemFFB?
Currently running Windows 10 (latest version).

Number481OP•9/22/23, 6:30 PM

what do you see here when you look at the configurator?

ToreDL87•9/22/23, 6:30 PM

Hang on, will advise

ToreDL87•9/22/23, 6:32 PM

And I did store settings in the configurator, heard an audible "blip" from the base when I did so.

Number481OP•9/22/23, 6:33 PM

what version of telemFFB are you running?

ToreDL87•9/22/23, 6:33 PM

Currently the newest stable version, 0.1.3

TToreDL87 Currently the newest stable version, 0.1.3

Number481OP•9/22/23, 6:37 PM

likely not related since afaik the older 'stable' version should still at least connect to the Rhino.. but you'll probably want the latest from here: https://vpforcecontrols.com/downloads/TelemFFB/?C=M;O=A a lot has been updated since 0.1.3

ToreDL87•9/22/23, 6:38 PM

Ok, I only went with a github link, will try that one!
Have been unable to find the repository you just linked

you can also check out the documentation for TelemFFB in the Rhino Manual https://discord.com/channels/965234441511383080/1091401951951982602

Number481OP•9/22/23, 6:40 PM

it is by no means complete but may help get acclimated

ToreDL87•9/22/23, 6:40 PM

Manual is where I found the github link in which I found the download link for 0.1.3.
Regardless, much obliged, I shall make all efforts to stay tuned!

Number481OP•9/22/23, 6:42 PM

the new version may give more info as to why it is failing to connect

ToreDL87•9/22/23, 6:42 PM

Unfortunately the newest telemffb has the same issue, but as you said, probably not related
