hi if i buy kit with two motors and usb ... what else do i need base i know but on electronic side of things ... is the USB the controler for servos or i need something else... and power suply does it just go to usb bord ??? sory for stupid questions ...
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 donβt 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 itβs just the loose belt. Any way to tighten the belt?
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
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)...
@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?

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.
oh I've just been using the python install of telemffb & doing a git pull to update, but I just dl'ed the new version & used the .exe, will that be ok? cheers
yeah, just make sure you grab the latest zip from #VPforce-TelemFFB . The 'stable release' posted on GitHub is a snapshot of the WiP branch from a couple days ago.
yeah.. or you can hit the link in the pinned messages in that channel which should bring you to the download site with the page already sorted by newest
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.
BTW, since you migrated from source.. you can take your old user config and drop it in the exe folder. If it is named config.user.iniconfig.user.ini, telemFFB will see it when starting and offer to convert those settings to the new model for you.
If it has a different name, you will need to start telemFFB with the -o <userconfig filename>-o <userconfig filename> runtime flag in order for it to pick it up for conversion.
@walmis @Number481 The latest auto update has made a mess. It did not restart after the update and the updater now enters a continuous cycle of updating from the former start shortcut. No new install location can be found. Is there a manual version of importing the previous *.VPconf files and User.ini?
common occurence for apps bundled with pyinstaller.. Windows defender and some other AV tools will sometimes flag a given build as a virus. This is because it is written in Python and compiled with βpyinstallerβ which can sometimes result in certain partial file hashes that have been previously found in low tech malware that is commonly also written in Python and compiled with pyinstaller
