I know you asked neok but I tried this and for me it makes the same noise (or rather I feel something move) even if I push/pull the stick from the plastic part below the aluminium shaft. So the cause may different in my case?

It could be a couple of things -

a loose motor pulley - tighten pulley grub screws
Loose large gear bolts - tighten the 5 hex bolts
Tighten the bearings preload of the gimbal itself. Those are hard to reach, but I'm able to grab the screws with long nose pliers and turning the gimbal to tighten em.

You can workaround the stripped thread by using an M4 nut.

LeLv30_SuperbusOP•3/10/24, 11:41 AM

Thanks! It must be the bearing screws inside then, tightening the screws outside changed nothing. I'll figure out how to reach them with pliers next.

neok•3/10/24, 11:44 AM

Where are the pulley grub screws?

hello everyone, I'm taking the next step, I'm starting the FFB rhino, I already have the files being printed, my question is I found the 57BL03 motors through a professional supplier, however it is the type of motherboard to control the 2 motors and where I found it.
thanks in advance

It is not possible to directly change these forces from DCS. Best to change the settings to your liking in configurator while you are loaded in the aircraft in DCS.

Vakarian•3/12/24, 8:53 AM

Not sure if this was talked about before. I've run into an issue with TelemFFB when I run both DCS client and a dedicated server instance off the same PC.

The big issue is that sometimes the base will remain in the "limp" mode, same one I'd get when I'm loading into DCS and it's waiting for inputs. This is not happening always, so I'm wondering is there some process scanning priority going on or should I start DCS first and only then start dedicated server so the TelemFFB hooks to the first "DCS" process?

walmis•3/12/24, 2:26 PM

This sounds tricky, seems like DCS takes control of FFB regardless if it's a server or not. You could try playing with HID Hide utility to hide the Rhino for the server instance.

I use dediserver to play large campaign missions and it seems that actually the last dcs to launch takees control

Yeah, that would explain why I only sometimes experienced this, but never really paid too much attention why is it like that. I'll give it a proper test tonight

Phantom•3/12/24, 5:15 PM

Is there a way to prevent bounce back oscillations please ? I think it is bounce back from the end stop values ?

Phantom•3/12/24, 5:25 PM

ingame oscillations are exaggerated in severity if you hit the end stops due to forces generated against them, for example letting go of the stick when flying something like the Mig29 when at high AoA

Ophelia•3/12/24, 6:45 PM

increasing damping/friction is how i've dealt with it

that's good news

Andre•3/13/24, 3:09 AM

so I'm currently trying to figure out the exact components that I need for my FFB stick. I'm assuming that the Rhino FFB Base and the VPforce Steel Mount are the no-brainers, but if I am trying to use a VKB gladiator stick, is there any other special mount that I need to order? Will I need the VKB adapter?

Ophelia•3/13/24, 3:45 AM

yeah, you'll need the vkb adapter

plehmann•3/13/24, 4:03 AM

@walmis I've placed an order for the DIY FFB kit: 86BLF03 x1 + USB based on feedback from @Tinman rather than the F04 versions for the slaw rudder pedal conversion. Questions can I ...1. add another motor to the controller at a later stage ( collective conversion ? and /or 2 does that motor have to be the same 03 version or can I shoot for a 57blf03 for instance for the collective conversion later?

Number481•3/13/24, 4:06 AM

You can mix/match motors on a board, but be aware that TelemFFB and presumably any software that supported pedals/collective (there are none) doesn’t work that way. Each control needs to be its own usb device.

Lei•3/14/24, 10:00 AM

On a different topic, anyone experiencing some clicking sound and a very minor clicking sensation when moving the stick hard suddenly (in some cases only)? Not sure if it’s the base or the Winwing adapter or something else. Hard to tell.

wolfman59#6013•3/14/24, 2:20 PM

well I think that the stl file of the base plate must be damaged because I have printed it 4 times and the printing fails towards the end in the finishing phase, does anyone have the corrected files?

peteg•3/14/24, 3:06 PM

Number481•3/14/24, 3:50 PM

What sim? I'll assume DCS for the time being. The spring force, which is ultimately what controls how hard the stick is to manipulate, is completely controlled by the DCS native FFB implementation. You can adjust the spring force settings in configurator, but that will only affect the max range that the DCS FFB has to work with.

The G-Force effect in TelemFFB sort of does what your looking for by applying a constant force pulling the stick away from you as g forces increase, but its not really the same thing, and depending on how pitchy the aircraft is, it can result in some weird force oscillations.

peteg•3/14/24, 5:40 PM

Good point thanks! I use it with MSFS and DCS primarily. I have the settings pretty well dialed in except for the amount of strength required under g. To your point - maybe I need to look at the g-force settings in TelemFFB.. If I adjust the spring force I think that stays the same whether under g or not right? Thanks so much for your help!

Wiz•3/15/24, 1:07 AM

Hi all, I have a minor issue I was hoping to raise here. Effectively I'm having some kind of conflict with the VKB adapter and MSFS. Often times the VKB stick will disconnect when using MSFS, and I have to unplug and plug it back in to the VKB blackbox to get MSFS to recognise it again. This doesn't happen in DCS, X-Plane 11 or IL2 - only MSFS. I'm aware of conflict issues in the VPForce Rhino manual regaridng axes and trim, but this is specific to the VKB connection itself.

Once the stick disconnects, while I can still use the axes, I can use any of the buttons. It seems clear to me that there is some kind of software conflict, and I'm hoping someone here might know whats up!

Any help would be most appreciated.

Yeah, it’s just a “convenience popup” (that should time out and disappear) in case you want to open the web-usb connection to the device. But you don’t need to unless you want to update the firmware.

Number481•3/16/24, 2:19 PM

Do you have more than one device?

Double check that there are no TelemFFB instances hung in task manager.

Does it load if you launch TelemFFB from the

_previous_version_backup

_previous_version_backup

folder in your install directory. (Decline the upgrade offer prompts if it loads)

If so, create a support bundle from the help menu and post here or send to me. It contains your logs, user config and system settings

Toddimus•3/16/24, 6:57 PM

I am about to buy a VKB grip and figured the latest and greatest revision would be the one to get. But looking further into it, the Gunfighter base MkIII and MkIV have different physical connections, which isn't really a surprise. But what's important is that it looks like the VKB adapter available on the VPForce order form is only compatible with the MkIII version, rather than the MkiV version. So I'll buy this one:
https://www.vkbcontrollers.com/products/mcg-ultimate-grip-add-on?variant=39779669868662
instead of this one:
https://www.vkbcontrollers.com/products/mcg-ultimate-add-on-grip-for-gunfighter-iv?variant=40102765232246
Hope that makes sense.

I guess this is more of a PSA than a support inquiry. Unless I'm looking at it wrong, then please tell me I'm wrong!
