BHi....I completed the Google Forms Preorder sheet back in Dec 2023 but am concerned that I can't find a confirmation email indicating being on the preorder list. Is there a way I can verify this? Thanks... Terry Swindle
BYou can pm the @VPforceBot with !info your@email.etc
TWhen you filled out the pre order form did you get an email reply?
(basically a copy of the form you filled out should have been emailed to you at that exact moment)
That email doesn’t confirm you’re on the list but that’s how the google docs work so I’d check for that first to be sure you didn’t make a mistake and forget to “submit” the form.
If you can indeed find the form.
I’d ping Walmis and ask him about it.
Good luck!

TOr yep use the bot!
That’s who sends the updates like “invoice sent” or “paid”

F@BSS_Shadow_73 or you can DM the bot and type !info youremailaddress
FSo I got my Pre-Order update and submitted my order request, but was wondering how long it takes to get the invoice for the selected items?
TIf you order the DIY kit the bot will invoice you as soon as they have your order assembled and your shipping calculated.
My order took a total… of 4 freaking days. TOTAL.
I got lucky and probably ordered right when new stock arrived before it was earmarked for the next order.
It can take some time depending on what you order and if it’s in stock or not.
IF you are on the Official Rhino pre order the bot will message you when your unit is being build and see if you want to Pay or drop out of line.
A lot of folks must drop out of the line because I see it move pretty quick.
So it matters if you are DIY or if you are official pre order that determines how long the wait is.

TYou can always ping Walmis and ask if you feel like you missed or lost your place but there’s also a bot for that
Fthanks
LThank you! I've tried this and set Damper Instensity to 100%, but still felt so weak.
N@walmis my stick is doing this. Seems to be proportional to the periodic effects slider. Currently at 50% but even at 5% it's noticeable
WCan you post debug and effects tabs also?
N
Wlooks like there's a bunch of left over effects, probably from telemFFB ?
You can click reset all effects in telemFFB or restart DCS it will reset the FFB automatically

Nthat seems to have got it. had done a pc reset and closed telem ffb. must have had some weird artifact happen. thank you for your help
SLet your stick have some fun for once and dance a bit :HelenaSmile:
Fyeah, looked cute with the music playing in the background 
LNo. 0072 says hi! How do I pull the top part off the shaft? Only two of the four screws were in their threads and I was advised to insert a nut in the shaft to fix it. But my hands are too weak to pull the part out.
WYou don't need to pull it out to add the nuts, just unscrew the connector and you will get full access
LI shined a light in the holes and neither is aligned. So that's why the screws don't connect. I guess a nut cannot fix this?
LI'll take a picture, hold on
L
WYeah, It's still within tolerance. Btw, what's the problem?
LNoise and very small amount of play when spring force is > 50% and I move it forward-back in large movement. I fly helos now
Lso it's not bothering me right now
Lbecause I never need such movement, but I guess with warbirds and dogfighting this could occur
WAre you sure it's the grip mount that's causing this? The play is only on the Y axis?
LNo I'm not positive. Yes it's only in Y axis. What else causes these symptoms, usually?
LI think I can cut the plastic a little with a dremel and if the thread is ok, I might be able to fix it.
LI would like the new aluminium mount though. I wish I knew which one is misaligned the holes in the plastic or the holes in the shaft.
RThis works surprisingly well
LI removed some plastic with a dremel. I can now get the pilot-facing screw in, but the forward facing doesn't want to connect. I think it's the screw thread. I tried swapping screws but that didn't help.
LI put it back together with just 3 screws. I realised the fourth screw could drop into the Rhino at any time. The noise is unchanged. It's like a thud and I feel it in my hand too. But I don't feel any play in Y-axis. Maybe I imagined the play and it was just the thump I felt?
NI fought with mine for some time trying to source some creaking/popping. I focused on the connector for a while too, but it ultimately turned out to be the pulley screws. They had loosened themselves up a bit which was allowing the Y pulley to shift ever so slightly under heavy loads. Giving them a good cinching down resolved the issue for me.
NWorth a check
NIt does produce a different feeling type of dampening from the normal "Dampen" effect type.
@legobirds , this effect actually uses spring force to generate the dampening effect. So if you have your spring set relatively low, you won't get a lot of dampening effect out of it.

LThanks - unfortunately it's something else. I tightened them a bit but I don't know what the right moment even is. Also mine made this noise anew.

CTrying open VPforce_FFB_Configurator. What is that?
DCan someone please post the TM angle grip adapter file?
N
TIs that a WW with a thrustmaster base nut connection?
NYup winwing with the wingwing adapter
Lcan anyone tell me what causes this behavior? this time it vibrated my extension loose.
WProbably unstable feedback loop. Could you share your settings? Effects/settings tabs
L
LI currently have it mounted via an extended desk clamp and it can wobble a bit, trying to figure out a more stable mounting solution right now
Wtry these values
Lthank you, will give it a shot
