MWalmis is troubleshooting this. Still not working right in the most recent firmware. I use Bluetooth for the grip in the meantime
P@walmis Hey m8, I've just shortened the ww extension cable & the connection to the female end of the adapter is still just too finicky, the slightest touch will stop the connection. I'm not sure what else I can do apart from hot glue but I doubt even that will fix the issue. Any help you can give me would be great
WProbably the extension's male pins are slightly too short.
If you're not afraid of a bit of soldering you could push the adapter female pins in the adapter. I have a video on how to do it:

Other way would be to modify/replace the male connector.

Pdo you mean the WW extension or the VPforce adapter?
PI've already shortened the ww extension cable & put it back together twice I'm really not keen to pull that thing apart again
Psorry just read that a bit better
Pguessing I just pull all the screws out of the adapter & pull it apart??
PDo I do this on both sides ie. all six pins for female side?
WOnly the three labeled ones
Poh, well I did all of them does that matter?
Wnope, you'll be fine, those other pins are not connected to anything 
Pstill no good!!!
Pdebug shows all FF's now, is that bad?
WMake sure you didn't short circuit 3.3V and GND pins on the female end (most likely)
Pso the adapter is toast now?
Wno, it'll work fine after you unshort those pins
POMFG !!!!! Got it! done, finally!
Pthanks heaps m8
MSorry to necro this discussion but is there any schematics or anything to help me get to the m/b? I can do soldering and all that, I just don't want to mess things up mechanically...
WYou'd need to undo the torx screws holding the rear plate (the one with the fan)
Moh, OK. rear plate doesn't sound too bad. Any advice on pot values?
W1-10k will work fine

SGood day all, trying to set XPforce up, for MSFS2020. I have TelemFFB, MSFS set to TRUE. XPforce licensed. I have trouble : If I go in the XPforce app once MSFS launched, at the Feedback menu, the case "Joystick Active" is sometime ON, sometimes OFF. It alterns fastly between checked and unchecked.
What's the problem? Somebody can help me to set it up correctly? Thank you much in advance.

Syou dont need both XPforce and TelemFFB. pick one.
STelemFFB is made specifically for vpforce and is rapidly developing.
N@walmis - Kit arrived safe and sound! Thanks so much!
MOK.....as its lost in the depths of previous posts above....can someone give a pointers as to how best to dial out oscillations if you move the stick when its not being gripped? I have gone back to my heavier TM F18 grip and needed to turn up the spring rate on the dial on the outside, to stop the stick sagging back under its own weight ( was using a lightweight F14 stick) But now it will bounce back and forth if you knock it.
MI am using the TM grip on the virpil z extension with no riser, what do people with the same combination have as settings please?
WCan you show your current settings, I could give some suggestions
Mwill do shortly....thanks

WOkay, try spring strength proportional damper at 100%, damper LPF - 6Hz, Spring LPF - 2-4Hz
MOK, have set those, but noticed in config, not getting anythin g reported in the raw data and blue circle?
Mok, re set made those wotk, ignore
Mwow, sorted! and stick feels much better generally as well. Thanks Walmis!
RWalmis, you easily read post and ask guys to try certain settings based on complexity and complaints of what the stick is doing. Can you post the base settings here and or pin it. Then give a short discussion on your thought process and what each setting does and why you are adjusting etc. I know it would be a long post and want be respectful of your time. As you already have your hands full. Maybe something every couple weeks as you have time. I feel it would help a lot of us u Dees hand the system better and what the settings actually do. Anyway just a thought. Thanks again for the great product and customer service.
SOk thanks
EShort question: can i set a different strenght to the stick when trim released is pressed? And if so, how?
NForce trim release is just βabsence of spring forceβ. So any other effect like friction/dampen/inertia will remain active.
However, there is no way to change those settings dynamically whilst force trim release is held

EThanks for the quick reply!
I am just starting to play around with all the settings. This thing is truly amazing!

Vdo someone has issues with Rotary Wings in DCS?
I have encountered an issue where in game the cyclic returns to center as I touch the physical stick after having used the force trim (in game force trim, and FFB stick trim mode selected)

VThe Rhino, stays where I put it, but the in-game sticks return to center.
I have double and triple checked that I have no other bindings (to roll/pitch axis) and that the correct trim mode option is selected

JWhich aircraft? And what trim mode do you have set in DCS for that module?
VI tried apache and Huey..
The trim mode is the Ffb one (I already wrote it above)
The trim mode is the Ffb one (I already wrote it above)
VI know it's probably obvious question, but did you enable FFB in the MISC tab? For FFB to work you need to assign correct axes in the controls, in Special settting set correct trim option, but there's also "global" FFB setting in one of the other tabs in the options (I really think it's the MISC one) where you also need to check that box.
VI mean, I've tried Huey, Apache, Mi-8, force trim works as intended, so there must be that one annoying thing that you missed
Wcould another device be bound to the X and Y axes in DCS?
