Hello Walmis,
how much do you sell this type of connector, and is it for a thrusmaster stick? because I am interested in finalizing my vpforce rhino

Hello, all. Thinking of jumping in and trying to build my own.
Someone has offered me these motors. I have never seen them before. Does anyone have experience with them. They seem awfully small next to the Odrive board.

Spit400•4/12/24, 6:58 PM

Secondly, where are the step by step instructions for this build? I have been poking around but haven't found a thread for directions. Could someone point me in the right direction for directions? Cheers.

smitty•4/12/24, 7:02 PM

any directions youd find here are for vpforce motors, not those

Spit400•4/12/24, 7:14 PM

The motors aren't agnostic? I read somewhere that electric scooter motors might be used, no?

smitty•4/12/24, 7:16 PM

nope, there is a custom board on the end of the motors that talks to the usb board

You might be confusing the rhino with FFBeast

I believe they also have a diy kit but I'm not sure, they do use scooter or hoverboard motors

I am running into a strange issue where the Rhino is connected but the VPforce FFB Configurator is not picking it up. The device shows up on the WebUSB Tool and in Game Controllers but it does not register with the Configurator. Everything runs fine in game but I can't configure anything. It was working previously albeit I haven't used the configurator in a while

DCS warbirds, aileron resistamce feels a lot more than elevator resistamce, what setting will help make them have equal resistance?

I/JG7_Moto•4/13/24, 1:06 PM

WeaselGX•4/14/24, 12:22 PM

I figured it out after some trial and error. The USB ID is somehow stuck on 2050 even though the default in hardware is 2055. Once I was able to plug to another computer and change the joystick USB device ID to 2050, I was able to connect to the machine in question above. I am not sure why the software is stuck to 2050 on that PC. @walmis

On an unrelated note, It warms my heart that after a decade people are still using this. I created this diagram when I first started modding and here we are, building a FFB stick.

from what I have seen, firstly of course VPforce Rhino is the best as far as software, support & community etc. but if you are going diy with non vpforce motors then I would suggest FFbeast not laserwing, can't say about current laserwing but from what I saw of it last & what I have recently seen of FFBeast I would suggest it over laserwing, it seems to have decent software & support growing. Though a vpforce motor/electronics kit would be my top suggestion.

Fierce_Fire•4/15/24, 2:19 PM

Its just the motors, board and usb connector. You'll need a way to connect the motors to the stick (the gimbal) and some way to attach them to your rig (base). There are DIY kits people have designed where you need a 3d printer and to purchase the listed parts, if you use the discord search function you'll be able to find a few.

Smorgus•4/16/24, 2:07 AM

My apologies if this is the wrong section for this. I’m trying to build a g-seat and the vpforce telem seems like an ideal place to get telemetry across sim platforms. Is there a feasible way for me to export data from VPforceTelem to a usb COM port?

SSmorgus My apologies if this is the wrong section for this. I’m trying to build a g-seat...

Toddimus•4/16/24, 2:36 AM

I’m sure there’s a way to “pass it on” from Telem but that would likely only add latency. The more ideal way would be to pull it directly from the sim in parallel with Telem, instead of getting it from/through Telem. Probably not what you wanted to hear but it would likely be better to do it independently, unless you had Telem directly driving your extra transducers or motors.

TToddimus I’m sure there’s a way to “pass it on” from Telem but that would likely only add...

Smorgus•4/16/24, 2:37 AM

Hmm got it. What level of latency are we talking? One potential Avenue could be to make the seat an FFB device and give it the G-effect. (That seems a bit round-about tho.) I’m most of the way to what I need for DCS, getting data out of MSFS and especially IL2 will be trickier

Toddimus•4/16/24, 2:39 AM

I don’t have a feeling for what latency it would add but a direct “pull “ would be better. Think of it as a separate thread.

Toddimus•4/16/24, 2:46 AM

Eventually, I want to add a 2-3 and ultimately a 6DOF motion platform. While the telemetry from the sim (no matter which sim it is) is being queried (or published to) TelemFFB, the outputs are different. I imagine that one could incorporate motion platform outputs into TelemFFB, it’s really designed for controls, rather than motion. That’s my geek understanding of it and it might be incomplete. Having said that, there could exist a super-program that does everything. I just don’t know that such things exist yet.

Toddimus•4/16/24, 2:50 AM

BTW, your stick configuration on another thread looks quite impressive, I must say!

SSmorgus My apologies if this is the wrong section for this. I’m trying to build a g-seat...

Number481•4/16/24, 2:53 AM

Rather than trying to piggyback on top of TelemFFB, or shoe-horn some additional export functionality into a fork (and then having to try to keep it updated in synch with the main branch)... you'd likely be better off just borrowing the DCS export script and modifying it to suit your telemetry needs.

What TelemFFB does with simconnect is likely way overly complex for what you would want for a G-Seat. I'd recommend just looking at some of the pysimconnect examples on how to get the basic G/Vector telemetry you would want/need.

Similarly with IL2, most of the complexity there is in the decoding of the telemetry stream, which again, you could lift that decode module from TelemFFB.

Hello Walmis, how much do you sell this type of connector, and is it for a thrusmaster stick? becaus
