Now the stick stays - more or less - in the trimed position. But when I release the Trim button the stick in DCS / the position of the displayed indicator move still a little further. Is this the way it should do?

Number481OP•3/19/24, 3:36 PM

I don't have the KA50, so I cant say for sure what is normal... I've never really looked at the control view before, but looking just now with the UH1, when I first release TR and let go of the stick, it does sag just a little until the adaptive centering brings it back to the proper point where I released TR.

you dont want my config

Pay attention to the trim/position indicator - if the dot stays inside the circle centered you're golden!

Pikas62•3/19/24, 3:48 PM

It does but without the green cycle around it.

Number481OP•3/19/24, 4:03 PM

I'd suggest setting up and tuning/testing by using the hardware trim option in configurator rather than testing it first in DCS. If the dot is centered in the circle after releasing the HW trim button while only using configurator, but it is offsetting in the heli in DCS, then the issue is with DCS/The module rather than your vpforce config.

Pikas62•3/19/24, 4:21 PM

Out of DCS it works fine

. I will play with the config of DCS. THX!!!

Panny•3/19/24, 6:23 PM

OK I think I've found the issue. I reseated the cable and checked the front side flange connector for loose wiring. They aren't loose. However I think the female connector itself might be slightly bent or one of its pins are. In very select scenarios by angling the plug I can get it to connect, but it's difficult to do so and the moment it moves it disconnects. So something has probably slipped there. My guess would be replacing the cable and its connector would be easiest(I don't have anything to solder with)

@Panny You can also fiddle with the connector with tweezers, maybe you'll be able to fix the problematic contact (That will save some time with shipping, and you'll be able to use your Rhino sooner)

Hi all.
I started my DIY journey back in sept 22. And life got in the way.
I am waayyy out of the loop on the project and have forgotten a lot of things.

Few questions.

They standard warthog grip thread is M20?

To make an extension cable, I need to make an adapter from a 5-pin mini DIN to JST- HX 2.5mm correct? Is there a pinout diagram pinned somewhere?

Does anyone know where to get the NS39 Connector, used on the DIY motor kit in the USA? I cant for the life of me find them.

TheAmazinGreat•3/20/24, 3:39 PM

WH grip is M36x2.0

Correct on the 5 pin to JST XH.

My kit came with all the connectors other than the JST ones for the peripherals. If your kit didn’t come with the motor leads maybe Walmis could help.

BAKE•3/20/24, 3:42 PM

Thanks.
I found the Pinout (I think)

Given that Walmis is super busy, and my order was 2 years ago, I'm thinking my complaint period has closed.
Its just a couple of connectors after all.
If I cant find them, I'll likely solder on some Xt30s or something similar.

BAKE•3/20/24, 3:48 PM

Im not sure this pin out matches what @TheAmazinGreat linked..

TheAmazinGreat•3/20/24, 3:48 PM

TheAmazinGreat•3/20/24, 3:50 PM

The one I linked is the “male” side. The other one pictured can be a bit deceiving because of the pin numbering in the table since it is out of order numerically on the table but in somewhat of a numerical order on the picture.

BBAKE Will the 6pin PS/2 cable work fine?

TheAmazinGreat•3/20/24, 4:07 PM

You might be able to make it work by modifying since the nub in the middle is different between the two. I just got some off digikey, might be able to get those NS39 connectors there too.

BAKE•3/20/24, 5:07 PM

I ordered some 6 pin female panel connectors, I found a datasheet drawing of the 5s and 6s connectors. The difference is very minor.

Pretty sure I have the XH connectors in my RC stuff.

Xt30s to change out the motor power connectors. Since i have the 86 size motors. and a 300w PS.
Ordered 20amp resettable breaker,

What else....

BAKE•3/21/24, 1:08 AM

Number481OP•3/21/24, 1:17 AM

yea, I see that now.... if you've verified the motor is getting power, I'm not sure what else to look at. The wiring isn't complex and looks right to me.

BAKE•3/21/24, 1:17 AM

ju_caesar•3/21/24, 1:19 AM

I am not 100% sure but I think I saw someone with a similar problem some time ago and I believe it was that the motors are labeled X or Y and have to be plugged in as such into the M/B.

BAKE•3/21/24, 1:35 AM

looks like power issue, though i dont know what could have happened between last night and today to make it not work anymore

Number481OP•3/21/24, 1:38 AM

IIRC, there’s a green LED on the motor in the cavity where the connectors are. But I’m not sure if it’s just a power indicator or a board communication status indicator.
