FDo you have the configurator setup etc?
NTry enabling axis control.
TTHANKS haha
RQuestion: using telem is it possible to combine hitting the trim button in the Apache virtually combined with having the stick actually trim correctly
RReason I ask is for SAS inputs and how closely trim works with the different "auto/hold" modes. Requiring some participation with the ingame trim button in DCS on the cyclic
NI don’t fly the Apache. I have it, but I’ve never done more than fart around the pattern with it.
What does the virtual stick do in response to trimming and SAS inputs? I assume your talking about trim other than normal force trim.
In general though…DCS is severely lacking in exportable telemetry at the aircraft system level.
The AFCS implementation for the MSFS H145/160 works well because there is data available to emulate the trimming motors and the developer provided hooks for me to be able to send specific events so the heli knows when a user is overriding the stick position.

CI think the SAS in the Apache is mixed in after the cyclic (and pedals/collective) input, so you as the pilot don’t feel the controls move with SAS interactions
CI could be wrong but that was my understanding
SI think Carlos is right. For the Apache, leave the force trim settings in VPConfig alone and use the DCS keybinds. You can't use curves on your stick axes with a FFB stick or it gets all weird.
CThat’s what I do and it works as I expect it to
CYou can even open the controls indicator and see the SAS authority limits and what it’s doing in real time
SI recommend flying with that on for a while when you first start with the Apache to get a feel for what the SAS is doing so you can stop fighting it and work with it.
CWhen in doubt just hold the trim hat up and it disables the SAS and lets you take full control
CI usually hold trim, set new flight attitude, then release
CAnd fine tune it from there if needed
CThe rhino has really made helo stuff waaayyy smoother and easier
SFFB is pretty magical with the Apache. I flew with a clutched stick for a hundred hours before I got my Rhino. Now all the weird trim stuff makes perfect sense!
CYup, I never even have that so like the trim “ratcheting” I had to do with a normal unextended stick sucked before lol
HYeah, Apaché with FFB is magic. Tap-tap-tap that trimmer and you'll be performing amazing feats. A bit of damper in the Vpforce software is all I use, but keep gain at 80ish percent for centering force
HThough heli's like the Huey have much longer throw so are very satisfying
CThe hind and mi8 are very similar, you gotta hold the trim and tap the trim to have the SAS help you get to where you want vs fighting you to keep the prior attitude
HGreat model's, there's nothing like FFB rotary in DCS.
CAmen
CLook at my profile picture then look at my discord join date. And commiserate with me lol
CThis is my original profile picture
CI’ll pitch in $100 for a bounty, anyone who helps the fragger finish the BO 105 gets a Rhino. Give them one for development, and once it’s delivered they get one each as a bounty
HPersonally I'm more jazzed for the Chinook

TIs this going to take longer than a year? or we talking 6 months?
Tlooks like he has shipped 10 units since the last time I checked a week or so ago.
BTook me 7 months, but pace has increased.
BAnd i got unit 317
Tso he's building like 10 a week? thats alot of units if so
BYeah think pace bumped up considerably just before christmas.
For a long time I'd estimate maybe 5-6 units in a week.

RIt’s the best mod I’ve bought for flight sim other than VR
ODepends what happens with the orders ahead of you. A lot of people don't go through with the purchase which moves the line along pretty fast.
Pposted in support too as not too sure where this Q should go....
PFinally rejigged the 'pit and rotated the rhino with the cut off switch way from me ( rather than tucked under the seat!) but with the extension I have it is obviously reversed. so... I thought, lets rotate the Rhino ' thrustmaster' connector round by 180... I'm a bit wary as there did not appear to be much slack in the cabling - so put it back together and asking here.
TLDR- can I swap the rhino joysitck connecter 180 and is there enough cable to pull it out to do so ?

HI did it with mine no problem
TI had 260 to go in the beginning of December (before that production was slower), and now at 4. Your SN will go down a lot as people will drop from the queue. So at current rate you're looking at about 6 months.
DI ordered 11. December. But i have 512 to go :(. Whats your SN? Mine 891
TI ordered in July and had something like 390 in the queue ahead of me at that time. SN went down from 552 to 383 overall. But production was quite slow until ~December, so I wouldn't look before that for any relevant statistics.

GI filled out the order form after getting an order confirmation for the Rhino base and selected Paypal. I'm guessing I'll get another email soon about actually paying? It's been 24 hours and it says "Processing"
Fwhen it's ready to ship you'll get an e-mail
Gok great, thanks!
