@walmis I am having an issue with using any thrustmaster grip to work. I select Generic Grip, apply and save, and every time I push one button the whole Colum of buttons register a press. I have zero issues with my virpil f-14 grip though. What am I missing, why dosen't TM grips work?

Wwalmis Yeah, I get the same behavior if I disconnect the +5V wire going to the grip. So...

Mistic•4/21/24, 4:07 PM

I got it to work! Yes the +5V wire was hanging partially out. Weird but it is working wonderfully now. Truly impressive Walmis!

Change to the debug grip profile and post the debug window.

@TheAmazinGreat

HammerOP•4/21/24, 6:52 PM

it continues to log the same over and over

HammerOP•4/21/24, 6:53 PM

that was the f/a-18 grip with no buttons being pressed

HammerOP•4/21/24, 6:55 PM

this is the a10/ f16 grip with the trigger being held

TheAmazinGreat•4/21/24, 7:31 PM

Walmis may chime in and know right away but I would verify all connections between grip and the board. It could be that the virpil grip hits the pins on the connector just right.

Swoop•4/22/24, 2:39 PM

Before I make a massive assumption, can I confirm that:

5v = VDD
CS = Latch
CK = Clock
DI = Data
G = Ground

Trying to wire a warthog to the board!

Toddimus•4/22/24, 2:50 PM

That’s how I would interpret it. CS is chip select, which means hey you, I’m talking now. So latch makes sense.

HammerOP•4/23/24, 12:23 AM

I found out the issue I was having. Apparently the powered usb hub I was using wasn't providing enough power causing it to act funny, but only with the TM grips.

Silver•4/23/24, 8:36 AM

I'm getting slight cracking noises in the pitch axis when changing movement direction. I've heard there is a screw that you can tighten to fix the issue. Anybody knows more about that? My Rhino is relatively new, only used it for about 3-4h.

Fresh_Mint•4/23/24, 8:54 AM

@Silver That may caused by interference between the body of base and the thick electric wire for connecting grip

If I remember right, it was this screw.

Or the ones on the bottom of the picture.

Thanks for the info guys, I'll check out that screw and see if it helps

CapnFlint•4/23/24, 6:30 PM

Does the Adaptive Recentering feature respect an off-center helo force trim location? I think so, but I want to double check?

Number481•4/23/24, 6:32 PM

yes, since the "center" moves with the trimmed position

Stryker990•4/23/24, 8:32 PM

can report after a pc restart and reseting the effects it worked again tho in hindsight i should have done them seperately now i dont know what fixed it

Touch_Of_Legend•4/24/24, 10:49 AM

Just sayin’ I love me some VA so I’m watching and looking at all these cool features as you guys figure them out (or implement new ones).

If this isn’t possible maybe you can go suggest it!?

Number481•4/24/24, 11:35 AM

AFAIK there is no command line ability in configurator to perform the reset function.

You could possibly restart TelemFFB (if you are using it) and pass the

-r

-r

flag though, which will force a reset via the hidapi.

Do keep in mind though that if you are using DCS, doing a reset while it is running will likely end up in requiring a restart of the sim.

Bob Bushman•4/24/24, 1:26 PM

Silly question time perhaps, but I got the virpil Z-extension, but as soon as I apply any measure of lateral force, say towards the edge of throw and barely 40-45% on spring it twists (well there is a lot of leverage and this point), it feels almost to me it's not twisting in the attachment but that the extension itself is being rotated.

Question though is this for anyone with this extension, is this how the extension is built or am I wrong and should just add a rubber gasket inbetween the rhino and extension ?

Bob Bushman•4/24/24, 1:29 PM

Took it off again, and from the other angle see its got grub screws or whatnot to prevent just that twist, off to buy rubber

Shamansky•4/24/24, 2:31 PM

Hii. Please excuse me, I received my invoice to pay but I'd like one more item to be added, an adapter for winwing sticks. Who to contact?

Bob Bushman•4/24/24, 2:54 PM

And of course at the second attempt of attaching the extension i shred the 3d print

hi, is it possible to use the rhino through vjoy and still have the force feedback in dcs? Or is it not recommended? Thanks

Swoop•4/25/24, 7:34 AM

Does anyone have any good profiles preconfigured for the VPRhino with 57BLF03 motors? curious about the max amps collumn down the right hand side but would also love to know how other people configure the damper, spring, intertia etc

Bob Bushman•4/25/24, 10:11 AM

And now I notice another feature of the z-extension and realise all my shenanigans from yesterday was all for nothing :facepalm:
It has locking screws for crying out loud..
In my defense there was no manual in the box.

Ha, I did the same thing. Same day too!

Major_Fault•4/25/24, 3:06 PM

Hi guys, looking for a bit of guidance. If I mount the Thrustmaster grip, do I have to remove the silver screws before attaching or can I just screw the grip on like is?

walmis•4/25/24, 3:19 PM

It should just fit

Wwalmis It should just fit

Major_Fault•4/25/24, 3:20 PM

Perfect, thanks.

Hi guys, is there a way to turn on the fans permanently?

Bob Bushman•4/25/24, 7:17 PM

There is a "test fan" button or something in the debug section of the configurator.

Bob Bushman•4/25/24, 7:18 PM

But shouldn't really be any need to do it.
It will activate long before an actual issue.

[OR] SerGeant•4/25/24, 7:29 PM

I want to build a custom cooling solution to reduce the noise of the build in fans. So I am looking for a 12v permanent output on the PCB. An option to always on would be nice.

Touch_Of_Legend•4/25/24, 7:38 PM

You should put it in the wishlist

Sudeebare•4/26/24, 1:15 AM

On VKB adapter the locating screw diameter is too large to fit into the receiving chamber in the VKB MCG Pro grip for offset. I guess that isn't necessary since the grip can be oriented as desired then tightened down on the base with the adapter's cap. It's hard to believe that the adapter won't loosen under any unintended twisting of the grip though.

Major_Fault•4/26/24, 7:10 PM

Speaking of VKB adaptors ... is there a way to connect that old KG12 grip to the Rhino (black box owned)?

Vitalii Muravytskyi•4/26/24, 9:06 PM

Sure thing, VKB adaptor needs to be connected to a BlackBox, Rhino is not handling the grip. I’m using the same KG12, no issues.

Spelljammer1•4/26/24, 9:41 PM

I was rotating the orientation of the base connector, something I see many have done. Any tips on reconnecting this cable again?
