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...

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

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

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

walmis•2/20/24, 6:16 PM

Did you select the "WinWing Adapter" grip profile?

Wwalmis Did you select the "WinWing Adapter" grip profile?

Eraseri•2/20/24, 6:17 PM

Yep. The black 5-hat on the addon-part works. Additionally, push button for the grey axis-hat does work

walmis•2/20/24, 6:18 PM

Those axes you highlighted should work too

Eraseri•2/20/24, 6:22 PM

I see. Pinkie brake-lever axis for example works. Also the switches on that work

walmis•2/20/24, 6:25 PM

I recall one instance when the axes didn't work at first, all that was needed was to calibrate the axes on a WinWing base with their software

Eraseri•2/20/24, 6:35 PM

You have now another instance that needed calibration with winwing base and software. It solved it, Thanks a lot

harf4ng•2/21/24, 9:46 AM

the compatibility with grips is just a firmware issue? Not hardware? So we can imagine if some features are not working, they could work later on? I wonder about my virpil delta prime constellation grip, some features like the left thumb stick that do not work. Thanks

Hey again, got another A2A Comanche question.. I tried different settings on the Elevator Prop Flow settings, but there seems to be no effect. Even with full RPM on the ground the Elevator Droop effect doesn't decrease its force, this can't be correct right? I'm also not seeing the effect appear in the monitoring tab of the TelemFFB software. Edit: Elevator Droop effect shows up, Prop Flow doesn't.

Hi there, any advice would be greatly appreciated if any of you happen to know off the top of your head. I use the monster tech chair and plan to have the base product as a centre mount. Due to its size it looks likely I'll need to get an extension. I use Virpil and Thrustmaster grips. Is there a recommended extension to get(and possibly length if you happen to know) as I read the Virpil extension doesn't work so well with the base. Thanks to anyone who can help

nothing simple, no (that wouldn't involve running from source and hacking the L:var into TelemFFB).
