afaik, as long as you have 2 it wont be a problem to use the pitch motor for roll axis
afaik, as long as you have 2 it wont be a problem to use the pitch motor for roll axis
Fhowever, you cant use 2 pitch motors or 2 roll motors
Fone of those combos might work, the other certainly wont, cant remember which
HCan you tell why that is?
FI believe the rhino needs a specific motor
Feither pitch or roll, forgot which
Fi've heard some people that had only one for ffb pedals needing to flash different firmware onto the motor cause the rhino didnt like the one it had
HI seeβ¦still not sure, if I understand why though. Maybe @walmis can add to this. Thank you meanwhile!
Aas for winwing stuff; I don't have personal experience, but I think the 16ex should work except for the vibration motor
Anote that there is an adapter you need to get for winwing
Fmy understanding is the program looks for a specific ID on the motor thats connected to it
Fif the ID it needs isnt there it wont work
Fif you have 2 motors it isnt a problem as youll always have X and Y
Fbut if you have only 1, which might be X or Y, only one of which will work
NMotors are encoded as X or Y
Ports on control board are agnostic
Motors can be axis swapped via firmware tool or Configurator software
Joystick must be 1 each X and Y axis
Pedals must be X axis
Collective must be Y axis
Each device must be discrete VPf control board

SHello I had a bit of trouble flying the F4 anyone have some settings and profile that works good with it and settings within dcs?
SHaving trouble with forces and trimming the f4 properly , always jumping around +-5000vvi with one click
TTry this, with roll 150 Pitch 250 in the DCS/Special/F-4 option. WIP.

DCan anybody tell me what is needed to use a Virpil grip with the Rhino? I am in the process of building my Rhino base and would like to purchase a Virpil VPC Constellation Alpha or VPC Constellation ALPHA Prime to go with it. Is the Virpil just a plug and play add on? Do I need special thread adapters? Do I need special circuit boards?
PVirpil should be plug & play m8
Pno adapter needed. VKB & Winwing need adapters VKB being a pass through to the VKB black box
DIf I am not mistaken some other sticks require you to have their base off to the side. Is that not necessary with the Virpil?
DThank you!!!
E16ex works for sure. I'm using it. I have actually even wondered if the vibration motor works too. I just don't know how to separate rhino and 16ex vibration motor to test it
EBecause it feels to me like the winwing vibration motor is working too
TVirpil plugs in and works great with no external nothing.

BReposting to maybe get an answer this time 
Power supply question: What voltage should i set on my MeanWell LRS-350-24 using the adjustment? Lowest i can set it is 20.6V. Searching the discord i'm reading replies saying a 24V power supply is also fine. How does this affect the recommended Max PSU current setting of 7A? Can i turn it to 24V and get more forces before reaching max psu current?

WI run mine at 22V, but 24V is totally fine. You can increase the max PSU current to the match the PSU
BAlright thanks! What is your max PSU current set to then using 22V? At 20.6V i reach 7A pretty easy, 24V/7A prevents the overload reduction of forces almost completely.
WYou don't need to set the PSU limit that low with that powerful PSU
SIs a crosswind pedals upgrade kit on the horizon??? 
TThe DIY runs on 20v 9amp so youβre totally safe to run it anywhere around there.
The DIY has an initial set up video showing some steps in the first set up of the configurator where you set the software to βcallβ for the power you provided.

This is a first introduction of the Rhino FFB system that will be available soon for purchase as a DYI kit. This system will enable enthusiasts to build a plug-an-play FFB joysticks with custom mechanics. Contact me for details if interested.

TIn this video (above) Walmis talks through most, if not all, the settings and how to set them up for DIY kits and what each βeffects settingβ does.
Itβs a great video. Watching it a few times will give you a greater understanding of not just the Rhino but of its equally powerful config software.

BThanks a lot, i'll watch it later
SI'm gonna try these settings later. The F4 feels really weird with my Rhino. Not sure if it's meant to be this way or it's the integration with FFB.
RDid the MFG kits get cancelled?
RI've asked I think literally dozen times with no answer, since the supposed date that the motors were available
RThinking the worst
TThanks for posting this link!! Somehow I missed it in my initial research. Useful information on the settings, though itβs a little out of date, itβs still a great resource.
AHaven't seen any news. My money is on fine details or something of the sort.
AThanks. That's the answer I was looking for.
FEngineering takes time, and people have been asking quite often so dont be surprised when a question like that is unintentionally left unanswered
SI asked that like 6 month ago
HSo I have just flown the f4 for for first time. Have to say the FFB by dcs is usually okay, the heatblur implementation in the F14 was very good once they fixed some issues. But this implementation in the F4 is just odd and a bit confusing.
I have turned the percentage option they have in the dcs special menu up to see the difference, as at a Takeoff/Approach speed there is little resistance so it's far too easy to overcorrect. Just to see the limit I set the FFB gain in the settings to 400% and on the ground the pitch force was very bizzar, none initially, then I applied some trim and it forced the stick full forwards.
I'm very confused as to what that's supposes to be simulating, because after Takeoff the forces reduced again to quite low, even at such a high gain.
My Rhino has the z extension on it so I do need a little bit more force but this is very odd.
