When I bank left or right there seems to be some inertia that carries the stick further into the turn than it should. I would think that the inertia setting would fix this but I haven’t had luck with that yet. Can anyone suggest what setting I might want to tweak?
Hi @Number481 I solved it. Indeed my problem was that IL2 already had 8 devices identified. Not sure when IL2 included the Winwing MIP screens but yes, that was the issue. The post you gave me was actually not necessary but gave me the info I needed. It was as simple as opening the IL-2 Sturmovik Great Battles\data\input\devices.txt and delete all unnecessary devices. Then open IL2 and map the Rhino as usual. Great info, thanks very much!!!
Yea I ran into that one with IL2. I had to do some wild contortions of Joystick “melding” to stick with their mind shatteringly primitive DirectInput Windows 97 limitations.
It’s safe enough. It totally won’t hijack your GPU and start mining crypto and sending it to my wallet or anything….
But it will do to your device whatever you tell it to.
It’s in a GH repo but it’s been a while since I updated that with any of my local changes. I’ll update the repo and post a build to GH and send you guys that asked a link to it later this evening when I get back home.

Hi guys. I finished my Rhino this week and it is fantastic. But I have some questions:
Runway Rumble effect in DCS F/A-18C is much weaker then in A-10C(II) and F-16C. Even if I put it on 100% (compared to 30% in A-10CII). Is it a bug or a feature? Or did I something wrong?
I don't understand Trimmer in Ka-50(_3). I set it to Instant like shown in the manual. But it feels weird. I would have thought that after trimming the stick would stay in position and neutralize the forces. But it still pulls backwards. Any Tipps are very welcome.
Again and as always thanks for what you do… The Rhino is only a device or a “really cool DIY” without constant adjustments and updates.. So I appreciate everyone of you guys who are out here kicking ass on this project on the communities behalf
not sure how I can get the periodic to work so that it does it's own minimum to maximum movement by itself. unless I misunderstand that one.. the spring effect works well when I drag it tho
@walmis Maybe it would be good to switch support channel to a forum (like knowledge-base and wishlist) to have a bit more structure in support requests?
Yes that's because of the gear strut data is different, you might need to tune it for specific aircraft to achieve optimal feel
Make sure you don't have any axis curves set in DCS, the stick should stay in the trimmed position if configured properly. To debug - follow the blue circle in the VP configurator, it displays the trimmed position. And the dot displays the actual stick position.
I have had a couple week break from DCS. I came back and was prompted to update telem. Usually it brings my profiles in. This time it did not. Does the current build have a way to import them? Are we still using a config.user.ini? Sorry I tried reading back last night and didn't find anything that helped.
no, the user ini files were from the old non UI based config model. The config in the new version is stored in an xml file in your AppData folder.
The user configuration is carried forward from release to release, as are the system settings (which are stored in the registry).
The only exception to this is this specific release where the format of the system settings stored in registry has changed. Per the release notes, You will need to re-configure your system settings. All of your model settings will be retained.
First I appreciate all you and Walmis have done to make the Rhino and Telem a better product with each release. That being said you have a much more intimate understanding of how all this works, than the mere user. I read the same blurb in the release notes. It doesn't tell me what to do. When I ran Telem I had to reconnect to DCS and in the lower right there seems to be a pointer to profiles, which won't let you point to the folder containing them. Do I need to re setup the entire configurator and/or telem?
Those are for configurator profiles that you want to push to your device when TelemFFB starts or exits, they are a convenience feature and you don't need to use them if you don't have a need/desire to leave your Rhino with a different setup depending if you are/are not running TelemFFB. Those settings have nothing to do with individual model effect settings.
Is anyone running all sliders in vp software at or near 100? Is it even possible? For me it seems impossible to set anything at 100 without getting the beep error. Even the tiniest stick movement will cause the beep and the stick will flop over. It's making the process of fine tuning settings very difficult especially when adding telemffb into the mix and not knowing exactly which setting is the likely cause. I fly dcs and msfs.
