@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.
HYes sir, it's the first gen Mongoose T-50. Just let me know what you need and I'll get it
HI 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
WJust 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
HWill do!
JI’m sure it’s been mentioned, but the web app doesn’t capture the USB or something. Am I missing something? Trying to update firmware.
Phey m8, are my constant effects supposed to be @ 50% too like the Periodic are for telemFFB with DCS? Cheers
HHere is the data from the Mongoose T-50 grip
GTelemFFB 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.
NTelemFFB 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?

Gahh I've been doing most of my testing in SP, which starts paused, but most of my flying is done in MP.
GI haven't tried MP without TelemFFB
Gwill give it a shot tomorrow
WThanks. Am I correct to assume the first 24 are buttons, and 25-32 are data from brake axis?
HCorrect, I see 25-32 blink when I actuate the brake
Jany tips on controlling unstable oscillations? Turning up the damping doesn't seem to be having the intuitive effect I expected
Jor maybe I just wasn't being aggressive enough
BAnyone 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
WYou 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.
WHmm not sure if it's a connection issue if it works via an extension. Can you do a demonstration of the issue?
BIts hard to show in a screen recording but I'd say there's a consistent .5-.75 second delay between pressing the physical button and the registered press
WThis one is a head-scratcher. First time seeing this behaviour.
BI 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
THey 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?

TTo 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.
MMight have to open it up and make sure the stop mechanism didn't pop loose in shipping
JPlay 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.

WI recommend updating to the latest firmware first.
WYeah, 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.

SMy VKB isnt registering any input in USB settings. Could I have a bad VKB adapter?
Rhas any one mounted this to a DOF motion sim if so How did you mount it
JI also have this question. I’ve been eyeballing them.
SIs 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
WCould you elaborate? Not sure what you mean exactly by "crooked". You mean 15 deg on the twist axis? VKB and Virpil grips can be twisted freely at any angle if that's the case.
SYes thats what I mean. can the warthog or default grip be twisted?
P@jehlybean I did it. Bought a 6mm thick aluminum plate from 8020.net, printed out metric graph paper and used a metal punch to make the correct hole positions, then drilled and countersunk the holes where needed. If you're interested, I can try and get you guys the exact specs this week.
WAhh yes, I see what you mean. Well, I have a 15deg grip mount head piece, but it would require completely replacing it. One alternative is to get a short extension from Virpil, it should allow the grip to twist.
AI'm experimenting with my TPR Rudder pedals and Rhino FFB. The FFB Type is set to Pedals in Telem and telemffb_controls_axes = true.
But i can't get Telem to move/control the Rudder Axes. When leaving FFB Type at stick, the Pedals move the Aileron. Do i need to tell Telem which of the Axes is assigned to Rudder? Or is Telemffb_controls_axes not working for Rudder currently?

NTelemFFB expects the pedal motor to be the X axis.
RYes that would be appreciated I have the H6 and I'm having to redesign the sim so I will fit this stick
AThank you. I do have the Rudders assigned to the X axis. I can set Spring/Dampening effects etc. through the configurator. But there is no noticable effect through Telem, except for some added dampening. The Effect monitor also only shows engine rumble.
Does anyone have a config file they use for Rudders with MSFS2020?

AI do get the engine rumbling, when i turn up the periodic effects. Is it possible to make this dynamic? F.e. more rumbling when on the ground, kess in the air, etc.?
I dom’t get any of the other effects. My guess is, i’ll first have to get Telem to control the Axis correctly through Simconnect. Currently i have to assign the Rudder Axis through the MSFS UI or FSuipc, to get Rudder movement.

NPossible yes, but not supported currently. For fixed wing prop aircraft the engine rumble is based on the prop RPM and varies between stronger intensity at low RPMs and lower intensity at high RPMs (the intensities and RPMs are configurable). For helicopters it is based on the rotor RPM.
If you have telemFFB set to control the axes, it actually sends the simconnect events itself. As long as you have an instance of TelemFFB running for your pedals using the -D and -t runtime options, TelemFFB will send the axis position to MSFS for the pedals (again, assuming you have it enabled in your config you are using for the pedal instance of telemFFB - which can be the same as your config for the joystick instance)

AI'm only running the FFB Pedals, so no Rhino Stick. But i did assign PID 2054 in the configurator and use the -D and -t options. Telem shows FFB Type Pedals.
ABtw, when i don't change the FFB type -t, the X-Axis moves the Aileron axis in MSFS, so the Simconnect connection seems to work.
NWhat aircraft are you flying?
ADefault aircraft. To test if axis_rudder_set is actually used by the Aircraft, i assigned it through FSUIPC and then the Rudders do move.
