hey guys, just built up a diy rudder with the F04, I'm having trouble with the centering it being slow to center. Any suggestions?
WCan you post your settings and showcase the behaviour?
Thold on

Tat full defection, then release it only returns to that point in pic 3
WYour spring is at 20%
Hhi, after calibrating the rhino into the configurator, I have to calibrate it in windows as well?
WNo, never calibrate in windows
Tat 100%
Tso i have to set it at 100% for it to work like a rudder?
WYeah
Hok thanks. I wonder because look how the axis is in windows in comparison with the configurator. I'm full in the corner in the calibrator and not in windows.
Tlol, damn, looks like i dont need leg days... lol
WThat's how windows calibrator displays it, it won't go further
Hok. so if I find I have to push the stick too much forward for full forward move I just adjust dcs axis saturation?
WYou can also use axis scaling feature
W
Hat 50% means if the axis is at 50%, for windows it is at 100%?
Wyep
Hok thanks. Will try that. btw are those the default settings and are they good, knowing that I use a heavy grip with something like a 30/40 cm extension?
Nyou certainly shouldn't need %100 spring force to center the pedals (unless maybe they are direct drive).. I run my pedals at %60, and much lower in game settings (with TelemFFB) and they center just fine.
Houch I clicked on reset config, because I thought it will just do that on screen, and it did that in firmware as well so load settings do not work. Next time I'll export my settings 
TI only want to set it to 30%, it would be perfect. Thing is, as walmis sait, it wont center quick enough to act like a rudder at 30%
WThese settings are "Board defaults" you can import the "Rhino defaults" from
configsah ok thanks
Hah yes rhino defaults are really different than board config
WMaybe there's some friction in your pedals? Try enabling the adaptive recentering feature, or make the centering curve a bit stiffer using the spring "gain map"
Tits a Slaw Viper 3
Hyou're talking about pedals. Do you mean you have hardware to add ffb to pedals too?
WI'm planning to release a HW kit for MFG pedals soon, but there are DIYs out there that mounted the motor to other pedals too.
W
Hah ok. I had MFG before but now I have virpil ones. And in march I'll have the virpil apache collective as well. But I do not have the knowledge to make those ffb
Tjust finished it an hour ago and testing it right now
Hin a real helicopter, do force trim also work on pedals? Or only cyclic?
Hthis is strange, why with the rhino default config, the X axis is inverted?
Nhere's a clip of centering at %30 spring. I run Virpil pedals with the 8603 motor
Nand my gain map.. just gives it a little more oomph right around center
Tseems to have helped a lot so far
Hok I undrstand about the inverted axis, this is because the default config file does not change the ffb axes setup
WYeah, X axis is usually inverted to work in the right logical direction on the Rhino
HI have an issue calibrating my twist axis. If I want the axis to go from -4096 to +4096 then at neutral the value is not 0. And if I click the C to have it centered at 0 then it goes from -4096 to 3955
Hok I found a solution, I removed a few values to max and increase the min the same value so center does not move but the axis goes to max and min
TLastly, whats a good setup for the Apache? I saw your posts before something bout trim issues in dcs and i think Telem ffb helped solved it.
Nyeah, if you run DCS by itself, you will find that your pedals react to the x axis FFB for the cyclic. TelemFFB overrides that and just sets no springs with a configurable dampening setting
TIm planning on adding ffb to my collective soon, still figuring out how to connect the direct drive to the virpil collective.
Tsweet, was testing it earlier. was trying to look for faults and didnt find any. I did have telemffb running so thats why
T@walmis @Number481 Thank you for your time helping me out guys, much appreciated.
DThx, it seems to be the problem. I tried to unplug those wire and probably damaged the connector. I think îll have to buy a new one.
Awhat types of screws & stuff is Rhino made with, I need to upgrade my set and I want to make sure I get suitable stuffs for screwing rhinos
