MIn that instance, as you can see, I was using the F18, but Telem was stuck thinking it was the F14. Going to turn everything on again this morning and check…….I will turn off all mods as well…….
WDoes the telemetry update while flying?
TJust sharing unsolicited advise, The F03 motor is more than enough for rudder purposes. I'd go as far as to say the F04 is a bit overkill as just having tried both myself. With the F03, you wont even need more than 50% spring force generally speaking, how much more for the F04.
DHi, I’m searching for the type of connector used on the pcb for the motors communication wires .
WIt's JST PH
MHi guys, well this morning on restarting, it was all working as it should....so obviously some kind of PC brain fart going on...sorry to have troubled you.......
VHi, I'm bulding joistick - not ruder so I need two X and Y. I've tried to disable offline motor. After that configurator can read data from online motor.
Additionally I've checked:
Additionally I've checked:
- motor data cable is ok (both pairs)
- mainboard is ok (working motor is identifiable on any data port)
- Motor X is offline in any combination but it is blinking the same as other motor when not connected (motherboard is always quiet)
What to do?
Is motor Id could be updated somehow?
Hwonder, anybody has tried using the rhino for car racing? Unsure how to calibrate it, the in game wheel moves left / right very fast even when I do nothing, and it is barely playable so wonder if this is doable. Or I need to add a deadzone?
Hin project cars 2 for instance when trying to calibrate it, I need first to move the "wheel" to the max side, then move it to 90°
TMost sim racing titles are built for wheels with 900/1080 degrees of rotation so you are essentially scaling it by a huge factor to get full travel. You don’t often need full travel during racing, maybe max 100 degrees either side. In iRacing you can define the limits of the wheel. If you can turn that down from 900 to 200 that may work. Not sure if PC2 has the same function.
TYou could use the motors from the rhino to make a wheel. But using the joystick as a wheel you need to downscale the virtual wheel axis travel.
T
Hok thanks will check that. Or maybe I could use the gamepad option instead of wheel option in PC2, as gamepads still have analog axis but less travel... though maybe with gamepads force feedback will not work
HI took the rhino for flight sims, and I removed my wheel as I do not have enough room in my cockpit for both a wheel and the rhino, but then if I can do some car racing with the rhino as well... ^^
Hjust thought about something... PC2 asks me to turn wheel to the max then wheel to 90° for calibration. So if I push stick to the max left then for the 90° also to the max left, the sim will think I have a 180° wheel (90° each side). Will have to try that to check if this works.
TSounds right to me!
Pshould I just get the order going and it'll ship when you get stock -or wait until kit is back in stock
MIs this still the hold up with the MFG conversion kits?
Pcould be, but that's a
q for @walmis
q for @walmisMthat's why I asked that in a tagged reply lol
BThis is dependant on the helicopter. On an H-60, when you press the trim release on the cyclic, it removes the force gradiant on the cyclic, and the pedals. If the particular model you're flying also has force trim on the collective, the trim release for the collective is exclusive to the trigger on the collective.
MGeneral query: Does the rhino retain as its settings the last applied vpconf file settings? IE when turning on the PC and before loading DCS, or any profiles, when the stick is powered, it uses the parameters of the last active profile....is this correct?
BLast stored profile, you can load a profile and not store it.
TIs there an ETA on the bigger 86BLF04 motors? I’m thinking about getting 3 of them for stick and rudder and then a small one 57BLF03? for a collective. Or will there be an even smaller one available? I thought I saw a 57BLF01 used for a collective.

TThank you!
HHi, is there a way to launch the VP Force configurator along with a specific configuration file and send that right away to the Rhino?
NTelemFFB can do it for you if you are wanting to have different configs load per aircraft. If you have another use case for doing it, you can call the configurator executable via CLI and pass the config and device serial with
-config and -serial
SQuick Question: when I reach the edge of the Y-axis (roll input) the Rhino starta vibrating and finally beeps and seems to reset. I guess I trigger a safety mechanism, but I can't figure out why. What exactly is the cause for that "warning"/feedback?
Fcheck your "Ibus" and max motor current, you're hitting that limit
Fsolution is to reduce the force or pull less hard
Hyep, the latter is the case. I have issue with F14 that sometimes get crazy with the trim, pushing all the way forward or backward... I'd like, in case this appens during a mission, load a profile with the STICKY function on the spring and the trim override
Nin that case you could just create a bat file and launch
If you only have one device I think you may be able to omit the serial number

WThe VP configurator shows the fault at the bottom right of the window, it displays OK when everything's normal. It'd be useful if you post your settings too.
SFigured it out, I guess, reduced "Spring Gain" to 95% and for whatever reason, "Spring strength proportional Dampening" in the Expert Settings was at 100% (I reduced it to default 25% and upped it to 40% now).
With these settings (see screenshots), it didn't happen anymore.

Hhi, why is it recommended to have the center value to 2048? What it does if it is not at 2048?
HMy axis are like that
Hso the Y value is like that because I want the stick to be closer to me, but even the X axis is not centered at 2048, but it looks like it is centered
WThis notice is to avoid undefined behavior on startup when DIYing the Rhino or replacing belts.
HWhat is the max recommended extension length to not wear off the motors too fast?

[hi there,
does TelemFFB have an autostart function or something else? Or a autostart with DCS?

BFor it to do something like that I imagine it would need to have a running background service.
I think you can use the skatezilla launcher utility to start it an other software needed, granted I haven't actually used it for that yet myself.

DI created a .ps1 powershell program that's a button box where you can open up all the programs you want if you want I can put that on github from one button. Ill post a pic of it when I get a chance.
BI just keep my dcs programs pinned in the task bar and click in rapid succession
Easy works

DOh for me i have like 5 programs i have to open so this helps so much, plus I start it with windows too.
Hah i hear ya though, just might be useful for ya. I was learning powershell for work, but would be better if I made it into C#, no idea how to code that ... But ChatGPT does

BI like to keep it simple so really only start telem and configurator now.
Sconfigurator doesnt need to remain open for everything to work
BI'm just still tweaking and playing around with it.
DGood Day, I recently purchased a two-motor DIY kit and have somehow managed to misplace the motor wires. I would be grateful to know if these are standard wires and, if so, where they could be purchased here in North America. Alternatively, if those can be purchased individually from VPForce that would be great. Thank you.
