Guys, quick question. I got TM Hornet stick, but "CMS press", button 19 is not registering in VP app

Guys, quick question. I got TM Hornet stick, but "CMS press", button 19 is not registering in VP app and in windows game controllers. I don't have TM base to check, is that normal with Rhino base or do I need to change some settings?

Hi, just setting up my Rhino for the Helo pit, how easy is it to rotate the 5 pin connector so I can turn the base around ( cut off etc to the front) otherwise my stick is backwards....

It's easy, just undo those two screws and rotate the socket. The cable inside might not let it lift up, so you might need to open the leather cover to feed in the cable a bit.

Other buttons work fine?

Wwalmis Other buttons work fine?

KowalskyOP•4/2/24, 12:04 PM

Yes, rest is fine. I've played with grip selection settings but no joy.

walmis•4/2/24, 12:06 PM

No clue, sounds like it could be a wiring issue/fault in the grip itself for that particular input.
It should just work.

KowalskyOP•4/2/24, 12:06 PM

I know this from TM manual but I'm not sure if it's the same case with Rhino

walmis•4/2/24, 12:07 PM

You need to push the cable into the tube

walmis•4/2/24, 12:18 PM

Dunno then, grip doesn't report it for some reason. I can confidently say it's not a problem on the Rhino's side, though

Any tips for my question for ac adapter disconnecting easily. Am I the only one with this issue as there is no one saying anything. Usb adapter is not loose but ac adapter is kinda loose I tied wire down below around my mount so usually it is nit dissconnected but it happened now in last few weeks 2-3 times that during usage wire dissconnects from vibrations I guess. Very frustrating spec when I was playing in VR and just all of a sudden stick goes limp.

walmis•4/2/24, 2:50 PM

Can you make a short vid demonstrating how loose it is?

mark turner•4/2/24, 3:59 PM

Is there a way to offset the grip slightly ( twist it slightly to the left to allow for me mounting it centrally and using my right hand ) In my other simpit, I was using an extension and could turn it using that. In this pit, I am not using an extension. I cant angle the base either due to using the mounting plate which sits at a right angle on a cross member.

Fr4Ged•4/2/24, 4:42 PM

depends on the grip I guess.
you can fasten the Virpil Constellation Alpha however you want to

DuraCell•4/2/24, 6:16 PM

Wwalmis Can you make a short vid demonstrating how loose it is?

DuraCell•4/2/24, 6:16 PM

Here is is

Fierce_Fire•4/2/24, 6:33 PM

isnt that not in all the way?

Fr4Ged•4/2/24, 6:34 PM

my cable isn't that much different. my plug goes in 3/4 of they way but it does not wiggle that much.
I did not force wiggle it like you did though.

DuraCell•4/2/24, 6:37 PM

it is all the way in

Fr4Ged•4/2/24, 6:38 PM

exactly

Fr4Ged•4/2/24, 6:39 PM

your connector looks to be worn out a bit though.
did you pull the cord or something?

DuraCell•4/2/24, 6:40 PM

there is around 3 mm more but I cant put it in more and it just slides out easily and wiggles like that from day 1, thought that is weird from the start but started bothering me now once it dissconect during play even tough I secured the wire so it dosen't get pulled

DuraCell•4/2/24, 6:41 PM

if it looks worn its only looks like that in vid it is pristine

DuraCell•4/2/24, 6:42 PM

where does connector looks worn?

DuraCell•4/2/24, 6:43 PM

As I said it is same feeling of connection from day 1

DuraCell•4/2/24, 6:43 PM

it is not all the way in, wiggles and slides out easily

Fr4Ged•4/2/24, 6:44 PM

the socket has some metal springs keeping the plug tight. mine does not wiggle that much.
but you are as deep in as possible.
the plug is just longer than the socket is.

Number481•4/2/24, 6:48 PM

looks like these little spring tabs need to be bent back out a little to create some tension on the outer plug barrel

DuraCell•4/2/24, 6:53 PM

So Should I try and bend them a bit?

Number481•4/2/24, 6:56 PM

its what I would try... but I've also never been a very good role model so....

DuraCell•4/2/24, 7:00 PM

Ok helped a bit I think still loose but less slidy feel I think It will be fine will see after some testing.

Hi @walmis , I have received a DIY kit and trying to connect everything together. WebUSB connects well and I can move a point (one axis is reversed) but Configurator app says USB: Disconnected and both motors offline. Tried a different cable - no luck. Joystick is detected by Windows once I plug the USB in.

This method is really good and solved my problem. Now the software is working fine

BigBANGtheory•4/3/24, 4:56 PM

hey everyone I came across an issue today in DCS Apache (could relate to other modules) with the force trim... what I noticed is if I set an axis tune S curve on the cyclic it messes with the FFB effects when you trim release (set a new trim position). The joystick and ffb want to return your stick to the centre by a small amount, the physical centre not the trimmed position. When I remove the curves within DCS to linear the Rhino and ffb behaves as I would expect with the spring accepting the new centre.... Is this normal or am I doing something wrong?

Number481•4/3/24, 5:23 PM

it is normal. Axis curves are not compatible with FFB
