Don't you want to have springs active when you aren't holding trim release?

KThe spring force will come from DCS and anything spring related you set in VPForce software will be overwritten by DCS
SSo the VPForce software is just setting the max power available to DCS (settings tab) and relative axis tuning (effects tab)?
HYep
HBe sure the knob is set to control overall power (which it sounds like you did)
KI have Damper at 50% and Inertia at 30٪ IIRC but I will send you a Screenshot later
KThis are my Settings for Helicopters in DCS
KYou can check in the Debug Tab what effects come from the Configurator and what will be overwritten by the game
SAwesome, thanks!
LSo how does the WinWing adapter work? I have a couple WinWing grips I would love to use, but I'm kind of confused about how it works. I know the WW grips use a different 6pin din connector vs the 5pin, but I was under the impression the WW grips had some kind of processing inside the grip.
Does the full functionality still carry over to the rhino? Would SimAppPro recognize the grip?
Would this same adapter allow a WW grip to work on a Virpil/TM base also?

LThank you all for your time
VIs there someplace that states current wait time for getting one? Trying to decide if I should fill out the order form or if it is fruitless at this stage of the game. The only info I found is from July when it was a year wait
CThere is no cost to get on the wait list, so no reason not to. Also it seems like a lot of people are not able to purchase them when they come up. So it seems like most people are getting their orders sooner than expected, albeit it's still a decent wait.

Fjust direct message the vpforce bot with "!stats"
SHey guys, which DIY kit has the strongest motors? I have a machine shop, I figure I'll just build my own base
SOops ,found the info
SI ordered mid-May and got it this week. Worth the wait!
DI took some pictures today, figured I would share the important bits

RSomeone told me there was a FFB kit for MFGs?
JIdk if he's made then available yet but yes
JJust have to drill some holes in the mfgs and done
MThe rudder movement on this bird is more akin to a jet than other helos or am I mistaken?
D@stewmanji will know better
JThe adapter translates the full functionality of the WW grip to the Rhino. You will have all the extra buttons and axis. One exception is probably the stick shaker that is integrated in some WW grips. But with the Rhino you have a better option for these effects anyway. Don't know about the SimAppPro. I also don't know but doubt very much that the adapter would make the ww grip work on a virpil/TM base. I believe it is working withe the rhino only.
VGood to know. I use a VKG gunfighter 3 with the MCGU grip. Wondering if it will be too heavy. I also have the older plastic MCG but rather not go back to it.
S@VPforceBot !info
Fprobably best to private message the bot instead of sharing your e-mail address with the public 
SI was trying to
SYeah, I wanted to avoid that
Jplenty of people use the mcgu just fine
SIs there a waiting period for the DIY kits? My order was moved to "processing". Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask.
WNo, the kits are quick. Usually a few business days.
SOk, thank you

RPics?
Dok whats the deal. do i need VPforce configurator still if Ive donwloaded the new joystick VPforce software?
DIt looks like there are a lot more options in the old software
WWhat do you mean?
DI guess to be more specific, the software defined end stops. I don’t see an option for that in the new software. I had to use the old configurator to access that. Plus other stuff like breakout force for example. Not that I use that one
WThey're all there 
DIs that not the old software though? As it stands now I have 2 different programs to interface with the VPforce Rino
DI’m just wondering if the new software was meant to replace the old one, or if they work together now
W1.0.16 is the latest one
D@walmis is this not associated with you then?
DIt’s 3rd party?
WOh, you confused the firmware configuration software with the telemetry effects app
WYeah those are two different tools for the Rhino
