There will apparently be a kit to FFB-etize the MFG Crosswind pedals, needing 4 holes drilled in the MFGs. I am not aware of a planned release date, but then I can't keep up with the backscroll here.

The motor shuts down automatically when it receives no data. Not sure what's the state of your setup currently and I'm also not sure how it's possible to switch motor data and power wires? I mean the plugs are all different sizes.

Minanke•1/6/24, 8:06 PM

Thanks @walmis Fixed the problem. Yes, motor 0 receive no data because one of the data plug pin was pushed inside the case. So I open up the motor back cover and push it back, now all are working.

Are you flying DCS with these? Do you use a rhino joystick as well? I'm curious if DCS works flawlessly with both FFB joystick and pedals simultaneously

Number481•1/6/24, 8:51 PM

DCS doesn’t understand FFB pedals at all. In fact, it treats the axes as if they were a joystick.

TelemFFB fixes that and implements pedal effects and dynamic spring mode switching.

Vulcan•1/6/24, 9:02 PM

Ah okay so you have to run telemffb , I can do that- im enjoying my rhino without any extra software going currently

Vulcan•1/6/24, 9:02 PM

That sucks it doesn't have native support considering the joystick works flawlessly

Power supply and USB cord are required. Recommended also are some potentiometers and an emergency stop button. You will also need a grip but I am assuming you have one that is compatible but make sure you don’t need any of the optional adapters.

Today while flying the Spit in DCS I heard a loud crack and the stick went limp in the Y axis. Fearing the worst I took of my VR googles and turned the Rhino off and on after a quick inspection where I found no obvious fault. I then preceded to try and replicate this, and it looks like my belt in the Y axis is way looser than the X axis causing it to skip. I also get a Fault_Encoder_Magnet or Fault_Unexpected_D_Current then the belt skips. Hopefully I have not damaged anything and it’s just the loose belt. Any way to tighten the belt?

How do you have the launch settings set up? You don’t want to start TelemFFB with any launch args. Just open the exe

I launched TelemFFB as always and said yes to the auto-update after finished the new TelemFFB, which was displayed with the wrong UI size.
On the second error, I checked in System Settings the auto-launch and start headless for pedals and collective but I don't have collective, and because it is not visible, I couldn't enable the joystick option

Its a brand new feature that I shoved into the very last commit before this new version and didn't document anywhere..

Number481•1/9/24, 2:18 AM

Were you able to get the new version started with only the pedals selected in the launch options? Because of the error state you may need to delete the system settings from the registry... Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VPforce\TelemFFB you can just delete the whole TelemFFB key

just pushed a new build that should fix the DPI scaling, disallow erroneous autolaunch configs and allow you to at least startup with your corrupted registry settings (though you will see "cant connect to "FFFF:" errors)...

Edwin.Zhang•1/9/24, 5:30 AM

@walmis Recently, I've been experiencing frequent protective shutdowns on the Y-axis. I will make a video to show the situation. At that time, I will also share my debugging and configuration files. Could you help me take a look and see where the problem might be?

Edwin.Zhang•1/9/24, 5:32 AM

Edwin.Zhang•1/9/24, 5:33 AM

This issue often occurs during stall shuddering and the instant of firing the machine gun, and it always results in a shutdown of the Y-axis.

walmis•1/9/24, 5:36 AM

Hey, try reducing the damper/inertia/friction LPFs in the configurator, I see you use all the effects simultaneously (damper/inertia/friction) so that might cause instabilities with the current settings.

Edwin.Zhang•1/9/24, 5:39 AM

What would be the appropriate values to set for each LPF?

walmis•1/9/24, 5:43 AM

Try experimenting, but I've found down to 2Hz is slow, but reliable

No worries, your Rhino is safe, motors enter into self protection if there is unusual stuff happening.

PPiNKSH!T hey m8, is runway rumble supposed to be on 750%?

Number481•1/9/24, 12:26 PM

hah.. runway rumble is one of those weird effects that didn't blow up if you set the value higher than 1.0 in the original configs and I think there were some aircraft that had that set as the default.

One of the new aspects of this new UI is that the settings sliders can be made so that they only offer a useful range, even though they display %0-100.

So many of the usable effect intensity values are in the 0.1-0.2 range, that the sliders are actually applying a scaling factor under the hood to 1.) only provide a usable setting range and 2.) give more granularity inside that setting range.

So there are some artifacts like that (%750) on a few of the old default values.
