I want as much force as I can possibly get out of it, since no PC stick generates as much force as many real aircraft. Since the limiter setting felt to me like significantly more force than I get when settings are maxed I was wondering if there's a way to get more force out of it while using the stick normally. I don't expect there is, I just thought it was worth asking.
Basically at 100% spring the force is scaled linearly through the travel range (green line), you can also have a stiffer response, but saturated at travel edges (black line). The endstops have a very rapid rise of torque response vs travel giving the illusion of more force. It's possible to increase spring gain above 100% using the spring "Gain Map" tool
So in order to achieve the peak torque output (ex. 9NM for rhino/57BLF03) at the end of the travel, is it necessary to go beyond 100% spring gain? Will it cause any damage to the motor etc?
i have a question for @walmis and the TelemFFB Devs (looking at @Number481 ) What would you recommendation for a yoke be? Is there a good Project with the VPForce Kit? Or is there a way to use Brunner Yokes with TelemFFB?
Last question first, no, the Bruner won’t work with TelemFFB. The driver is very custom to VPForce.
If you search around, a few people have attempted yokes. I am not qualified to give mechanical design advise, but if I were going to try, I’d rip apart my Alpha yoke that has been collecting dust under my desk for 2 years and see what I could make out of the guts.
Anybody know if/when the VKB adapter will be updated to match the new VKB RevC connector that is now the standard? That’s what is on the current Gunfighter Mk4 sticks and the Gunfighter Mk3 base.
In DCS how do the settings in the configurator interact with what DCS is giving? Does making changes in the configurator settings and effects change anything in DCS at all?
Configurator sets the max capability for a given effect type. A sim can send the FFB command for “%50 spring”. That will be %50 of whatever your configurator spring settings are.
Yes. Some modules also vary the amount of dampening on the controls. The resulting force you feel will be affected by the damper settings in Configurator.
Same goes for all the stuff in TelemFFB. Most of those effects are "periodic" type. So while you can adjust each effect individually in TelemFFB, they are all really "% of configurator value"
That may explain the issue I'm finding with the apache, I have an offset grip so have -5.5% static force and that allows the stick to centre perfectyl for every module........ except the apache which seems to want -2.5% Is there anyway to change profiles/settings based on module?
I know I’ve asked a few times but I’ve finally finished my move. Does anyone have any budget friendly Rhino compatible rig recommendations? I love the 80/20 style. Happy to build my own if there are plans too.
I tried desk mounting but my desk isn’t that strong and it limited me. I do want a full rig style one. I like the racing sim ones just without the angled racing chair and with actual mounting options
