Hey @walmis I only got as far as confirming that only the VDD pin was reporting any voltage, everything else wasn’t doing anything. Do you need me to message you any place to organise a Winwing replacement converter?

Hey guys, sorry if this has come up before. Using the VP Force with a Virpil PAK grip and the virpil extension. I'm getting repeated uncommanded button presses regardless of what grip configuration I use. Makes binding in DCS very problematic. The grip is known good, tested on Virpil base with zero issues

does the issue still occur if you directly connect the grip to the rhino without the extension? Myself and at least one other had issues with the 200mm offset virpil extension.. the way its wired internally introduces enough noise to cause problems with the Rhino base

Hook47•12/5/23, 4:13 PM

Yes. Persists with both. Extension also tests good on its base

Number481•12/5/23, 4:15 PM

if it persists without the extension, then thats not the issue (but my extension worked fine on the virpil base, too)

Hook47•12/5/23, 4:16 PM

Virpil extension, or at least my example is well made. Wiring is tidy and better than Thrustmaster or Wingwing products. I rather suspect it's a software or configuration problem with the VP Force software.

walmis•12/5/23, 4:50 PM

Which one is the PAK grip? T50CM2?

AndyHill•12/5/23, 4:57 PM

I think so

Wwalmis Which one is the PAK grip? T50CM2?

Hook47•12/5/23, 5:51 PM

Mongoose T-50

Hook47•12/5/23, 5:52 PM

Should be the same as a T50CM2 I think

Hook47•12/5/23, 6:00 PM

This is pretty clearly a fault on the VP Force softwares end IMO. Testing a TM Warthog grip on the same extension, it's working great. The VP Force software isn't processing button data from the Virpil grip IMO, especially where the brake lever is concerned. Seems like it's trying to read that axis as button presses rather than a potentiometer axis

walmis•12/5/23, 6:26 PM

@hook47 Is this an old VPC T-50 model? Could you enable the debug grip profile and copy some data from the debug tab? It'll probably be an easy fix.

Hook47•12/5/23, 6:27 PM

Yes sir, it's the first gen Mongoose T-50. Just let me know what you need and I'll get it

Hook47•12/5/23, 6:28 PM

I prefer the T-50 over the Warhog grip as it's much lighter/less strain on the base, so I'd prefer to revert back to it

walmis•12/5/23, 6:32 PM

Just enable the Generic Grip (Debug) profile and make a screenshot or copy data from the debug tab in the vpforce configurator. It'll show data coming from the grip

Here is the data from the Mongoose T-50 grip

Gascan87•12/7/23, 4:58 AM

TelemFFB is sometimes not giving me the proper forces when flying IL2. Sometimes when I start up the game it acts as though spring centered, other times it gives proper forces based on the game's FFB implementation. The telemetry monitor screen shows the correct data for the plane, but I don't get any effect. I have verified that Sticky is not turned on, and if I turn off the Spring effect in FFB Configurator then the stick goes limp. I can't figure out why it does one or the other. I've even had troubles after a fresh computer restart. Anyidea on what to look for next? Currently on 0bfba240 for TelemFFB. I have used SimShaker in the past, but turned it off before the Rhino arrived. The Rhino has worked correctly several times, but sometimes gives this problem.

Number481•12/7/23, 5:14 AM

TelemFFB doesn’t do much in terms of stick forces with IL2 since it implements its own dynamic stick FFB forces. TelemFFB is limited to the haptic effects that you see settings for in the config.

When writing the support for IL2, I noticed that it’s FFB implementation is pretty flaky. On some aircraft after having been on pause, it’s 50/50 whether the spring force will return to one or both axes.

Also, if the game window loses focus, all effects get reset by the sim and TelemFFB does it’s best to recover from the condition (for the haptic effects it generates)

Do the issues still occur if you don’t use TelemFFB?

Gascan87•12/7/23, 5:18 AM

ahh I've been doing most of my testing in SP, which starts paused, but most of my flying is done in MP.

Gascan87•12/7/23, 5:18 AM

I haven't tried MP without TelemFFB

Gascan87•12/7/23, 5:19 AM

will give it a shot tomorrow

Jarmak•12/7/23, 4:53 PM

any tips on controlling unstable oscillations? Turning up the damping doesn't seem to be having the intuitive effect I expected

Jarmak•12/7/23, 4:56 PM

or maybe I just wasn't being aggressive enough

butternips•12/7/23, 9:46 PM

Anyone have any issues with a TM warthog grip? My grip worked fine on my VPC and warthog bases. Plugged into the rhino buttons don’t register immediately and the input pulses during a prolonged press. I have the grip type set to generic grip. The pins look in good health and I also tried an extension that I’ve verified as working as well. My VPC VFX works without any problems on the Rhino. I tried a search here in the discord and couldn’t find any relevant issues

walmis•12/8/23, 7:12 AM

You can play with filter (LPF) values, decreasing spring filter, and increasing damper bandwidth usually helps. Too much damper BW can cause vibrations and motor failsafe.

This one is a head-scratcher. First time seeing this behaviour.

butternips•12/8/23, 12:28 PM

I guess I’ll give the resistance between the pins a check when I get home. It is an older stick I guess, I got it in 2017

tomatoflames•12/9/23, 2:22 AM

Hey guys,

I'm finally getting my Rhino set up and mounted, so I was able to power it up for the first time today. Unless I'm missing something, it doesn't seem that my Emergency Stop (big red button) is functioning---the stick has centering force behind it whether the button is pressed or not. This isn't the intended function of this thing, right?

tomatoflames•12/9/23, 2:23 AM

To add on to this, when the stick is unplugged from power, whether the button is pressed in or not the stick will center itself on startup when I plug it back in to main power.

MashedPotato•12/9/23, 3:02 AM

Jarmak•12/9/23, 5:53 AM

Play with in what way? I don't see anything called spring filter or damper bandwidth.

I am picking up violent vibrations near the center point while in DCS, I think since I turned on the adaptive centering spring. triggered failsafe earlier this evening. usb port seems to have broken loose inside the casing but cable is still plugged in, unsure coincidental or caused by the vibration.

Yeah, looks like a bugged switch.
You can try to open up the back of the rhino, unplug the stop switch, unscrew and remove it, pop it a few times and it should start work again. Then you can install it back.

Is there a way to rotate the grip mount? Mine is slightly crooked, in the wrong direction and I like my stick curved inward about 15 degrees for ergonomics
