Hey guys I'm in need of your recommendations, Settings for DCS helicopters. Additionally, how I might set a force release button on my stick just like you would find in the UH60 and AH64.

are you having trouble with something specific? I did my inital setup with the VP Force configurator settings and running a stock config file for TelemFFB works fine for me. the force trim works with the binings in DCS. additionally you can override the force trim in dcs and have the VP Force configurator handle this.

It looks like a reversed(?) pendular mechanism? To my knowledge lots of aircraft share this design, from GA to airliner, and helo; some fighter(F-14)/attacker(A-10) uses a pendular version similar to the TPR; the ones on newer fighter like 16 35? has very limited travel and requires strong force to operate and don't like any design in the consumer market(18 is also short travel+strong force but seems to be a different mechanism)https://forum.dcs.world/topic/215458-rudder-pedals-animation/?do=findComment&comment=5133172

The ones from virpil seem to be more RUS style; I'm not familiar with the mechanism used by MFG/WW, this is the only one I know one:https://forum.dcs.world/topic/159858-jet-provost-rudder-pedal-conversion/

Jet provost rudder pedal conversion

Hi all thought I would share a little project I have taken on. Still waiting for delivery but should be here this week. A set of jet provost rudder pedals with toe brakes. I plan to use a Leobodnar board and hopefully hall sensors, but will take a closer look once it arrives. EDIT: Had to remove ...

Anyone used their Rhino in Star Wars Squadrons or another space sim? Just looking for ideas what the correct settings/profile should be

B34ker•1/15/24, 5:41 PM

I'd imagine for space you'd want fairly light resistance with a bit of light damping, plus a limited throw so your arm doesn't get tired from moving it around all over

Boggy•1/15/24, 8:19 PM

For those that fly the F5 in DCS , what are your settings for the ailerons/roll? It rolls faster than an A4 if you leave it as standard.

Stryker990•1/15/24, 10:16 PM

How long should i make the horizontal arm of a monstertech style centermounted deskmount with a rhino+WW f-16ex Combo (without extention) so i get good travel without bumping into the vertial beam?

Anyone use the Rhino or DIY kit with the F15E in DCS? How well does the Auto pilot work? I have the Brunner stick and the center is mushy enough to effect the AP.

MashedPotato•1/16/24, 9:47 PM

Autopilot in the F-15E seems kind of wonky in general this patch, it likes to follow the trim rather than holding altitude. When it was working though, it held true, followed courses, didn't get flipped to ATT mode out of NAV or HDG

TrigaNZ•1/16/24, 10:09 PM

I have found the A/P's to work better with little to no Friction or Damping or Inertia. In the AV8B and F/A-18 anyway.

Duchess ✈•1/16/24, 10:26 PM

Best way to get the TM F-18 grip at an angle without using an extension? Will the plug on the Rhino "move" or rotate a little?

Tinman•1/17/24, 8:48 AM

If you feel you've done all you can on the Rhino side, you can also add a slight deadzone in DCS axis. Used to do so in the FA18 but was able to dial in my settings in the Rhino software and removed the deadzone.
