Hi, is there any way to disable effect in vpforce telem app? I find annoying feature on high g turns

Hi, is there any way to disable effect in vpforce telem app? I find annoying feature on high g turns, stick moves where g force vector goes. It's like inverted stick stiffness on high speed with warbirds. And I don't want to disable telem app, because it gives a lot good effects except this one

@walmis I hooked up a 2kW 24V/80A power-supply to our rig as a main source. We have a DIY-FFB JS with two standard-motors 57BLF03, a DIY-FFB JS with 2x 86BLF04 and FFB-Rudder with 1x 86BLF04. Shure the JS will not be used together, but i stumbeled over the input-fields for the max-current. ive set them to 30A for all motors what is, mo my understanding, the limit of the driver. But the max-value for the PSU is limited to 25A. Does it make sense to allow a higher value like the 80A for our case as a fix for a next release?

Did you try un-ticking the effect checkboxes in TelemFFB? I’d suggest starting with the one called “G Force”

Comments like this make me curious whether I’m running the right version of telemffb… mine has no checkboxes

Sorry, I have a tendency to assume everyone is running the wip version.. which greatly simplifies config management

i will try it

thank you

For the throw limiters available for purchase would a higher number mean more throw? I bought mine with the 11deg one but want to add more range. Should I order say a 14 or 15 degree one maybe both? Thanks

AndyHill•2/18/24, 8:42 PM

If I remember correctly the limiters are numbered by the degrees of travel

AndyHill•2/18/24, 8:44 PM

if you want to order a limiter but don't know exactly which one, maybe you can try to remove the one you have now, move the stick around (perhaps try the software limiters) to see where you'd like the limits to be, make note of the numbers and ask walmis what that means in degrees

Ophelia•2/18/24, 8:54 PM

There's a minor UI bug with the WIP version of TelemFFB - with windows desktop scaling set, some of the UI gets cut off

tarpoon•2/18/24, 9:34 PM

I think I'm close with the HPG 145 setup, but it doesn't feel 100% yet. Could someone with a good config show me a screenshot of the configurator and TelemFFB? Been going through all the docs and searching in here...

Sir_Diggins•2/18/24, 10:11 PM

Quick question. I’m getting some noise in the pitch axis of my stick. Popping off the cover it seems to be a bit of a tolerance thing where the metal rod goes into the 3d print. I tried snugging up those 4 screws, but it still seems to be rubbing there or something. Any advice is appreciated!

Number481•2/18/24, 10:44 PM

what res and scaling are you running? I've already implemented what's possible inside the PyQT framework for handling windows scaling. I only have the ability to test at 1440p, but my understanding was that it was resolved after that fix (was quite bad at first)

Ophelia•2/18/24, 10:44 PM

1920x1080, 125%

Ophelia•2/18/24, 10:45 PM

i have a small screen for the desktop, and use VR for flying, so the scaling is turned up a little to be able to read the screen

Number481•2/18/24, 10:50 PM

Interesting.. I guess I never considered that anyone would use scaling at 1080p

I just tested and do see a little clipping of the text and checkboxes. Will have to see if I can adjust the widget properties to accommodate it

Number481•2/19/24, 1:09 AM

The important bits from a TelemFFB perspective are:

Make sure you bind the trim release in the TelemFFB settings.
Make sure you have enough spring force enabled in your configurator profile that the joystick can properly sit centered when hands off.

If your joystick sags from center due to the weight of the grip and extension offset, use the balance force settings and adaptive centering.

The “hands on/off” detection depends on proper centering ability.

The other important bit is to make sure the helicopter is set up properly in its in-game settings.

If your running the latest version installed by Hype Operations Center, follow the guidance in the TelemFFB manual on setting up the iPad.

If your running the latest dev builds, follow the guidance in this page : https://davux.com/docs/h145/SETTINGS.html#setup-v2
Hands-on detection = None
Trim system= hardware

While you're tightening stuff, also check the five bolts on each large pulley. I had some clunking coming from them, and a 1/8 turn on each bolt sorted it out.

Also try additionally tightening the small pulley grub screw (2mm Hex), from the sound it could be that also.

Thanks for your input!
Did follow all the docs, but the missing piece might be spring force, and adaptive centering as I'm using a long extension and a heavy thrustmaster grip

Sir_Diggins•2/19/24, 2:28 PM

Thanks guys for the recommendations! While it wasn’t those in particular (I did snug them up a bit though) I found it was actually the bolts holding in the grip attachment. It was just under the dust boot, so I didn’t think about them earlier. If they do get loose again I might throw some thread lock in them if it’s safe to do.

Glaive(Rikk)•2/19/24, 4:23 PM

N00b here

Just trying to set the stick up in DCS, have FFB ticked in settings and stick set to instant trim.
Problem is the stick recenters after I've clicked trip, ie it always wants to stay centered rather than staying in position.
Had a good read through but nothings jumping out at me.

Glaive(Rikk)•2/19/24, 4:28 PM

Had another play, it's not recentering, if I go 20d to the right and click trim the stick jumps to 20d left.
If I click trim reset, it centres

Arew•2/19/24, 4:29 PM

somehow did this over the weekend, is this recoverable or will i need to replace that whole part?

walmis•2/19/24, 5:05 PM

Easy replacement, but I see only the top part is damaged so I guess it should hold the grip until a replacement arrives.
Maybe the grip was not fully tightened or was it cross-threaded?

Arew•2/19/24, 5:06 PM

i imagine i cross threaded it unfortunately, main problem is now the damaged side doesn’t thread at all so it screws on lopsided and doesn’t tighten properly

Arew•2/19/24, 5:07 PM

though i thought about using tape to cover the damaged section to try and screw it on but didn’t want to risk damaging it more if it was salvageable

TripRodriguez•2/19/24, 6:29 PM

Hey guys, I'm using the TM Hornet grip. Set to generic in VPForce settings. Currently the 1st stage trigger activates ALL buttons simultaneously, and no other buttons work at all. It was this way at first a week or two ago when I first put this grip on so I asked here, then it fixed itself so I told you all was well. Now it's doing it again. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

TripRodriguez•2/19/24, 6:38 PM

Sitting here unable to fly in the meantime.

TripRodriguez•2/19/24, 6:43 PM

Even if I set grip to "disabled" it still does the same thing.

Number481•2/19/24, 6:44 PM

are you using an extension?

TripRodriguez•2/19/24, 6:45 PM

Yes, but FWIW it was working when I shut down the PC before the weekend and none of that has been touched since.

TripRodriguez•2/19/24, 6:46 PM

Actually wait, I did loosen the grip a bit to twist it a little more left from where it was.. and that may have been after it was tested working. I'll take it apart and replug I guess. Was trying not to mess with it since I got it exactly where I want it.

Number481•2/19/24, 6:46 PM

personally I would want to rule out the extension (I had issues with my Virpil 200mm offset). See how it behaves directly connected to the rhino

TripRodriguez•2/19/24, 6:47 PM

I can't actually use it without the extension, or the grip is turned round the wrong way.

TripRodriguez•2/19/24, 6:48 PM

But I can test that if it still doesn't work properly after I replug the extension cable a couple times.

Number481•2/19/24, 6:51 PM

not meant to be a alternative configuration.. just to see whether it is the grip or the extension that is causing the issue

TripRodriguez•2/19/24, 6:53 PM

I know I'm not the first who has found that with the Rhino mounted the way it's meant to be, it's too far forward if you don't have a seat with a cutout in the center for the stick!

TripRodriguez•2/19/24, 6:53 PM

And thank you, the extension was not loose at all, but after unplugging and replugging the bottom end it works! I tried replugging the top first, and that didn't help, but the bottom did.

TripRodriguez•2/19/24, 6:55 PM

I'm now suspicious that this might be a recurring problem, but at least now I know where the problem is so many thanks for the help.

TripRodriguez•2/19/24, 6:56 PM

I have a different extension cable to try too. It's not a virpil extension but I'm using the virpil extension cable. I have the annoying super short cable that came with the non-virpil extension to try if this happens again.

harf4ng•2/20/24, 10:21 AM

hi, is it possible to change the centering of the rhino? I would like it to be closer to me when it is idle. Thanks

harf4ng•2/20/24, 10:23 AM

also, I use the rhino with a virpil delta constellation prime grip, and most features of the grip work except the lights, and the left thumb stick. Is it normal?

Eraseri•2/20/24, 5:45 PM

Hi, just received the Rhino today. So far so good. I'm using WinWing adapter with Winwing F-16EX grip. The grip has "shaker" -part. Obviously the shaker doesn't work. However, the addon part has few extra axis and buttons. Most of the buttons on addon part work. Nevertheless, none of the three axis work and also few buttons dont work. I highlighted non-working buttons/axes with red circle
