Can anyone confirm if this happens without TelemFFB running? Just want to confirm the trim workaround feature isn't bugged or something. Though it is only enabled by default on the AV8B and Mig-19

Boggy•5/29/24, 12:24 PM

I'll try to replicate it without the Telem and let you know

I had TelemFFB running, but the F14 has its own trim implementation, and I am sure trim workaround is not enabled on my end

I don't use trim workaround and had it again 1h ago, short bump of trim button in the same direction as runaway, fixed the problem. It occurred when pressed and hold so I suspect ghosting issue on reading phase by DCS

I have a 9.5A power brick that came with my Rhino, it's set to 7.0A in the software, shoud I change this to 9.5A?

Ice•5/30/24, 1:09 AM

Electricity is NOT my area of expertise, so I'm asking first lol.

Ice•5/30/24, 1:09 AM

Or is the "PSU Current" in the configurator unrelated to your power brick?

Maybe a stupid question but is it okay if the blue marked grid is blocked?
The cooler below has unrestricted airflow but the blue marked area is directly in front of my seat cushion, so the question is how close can i put it near the cushion?

Matchstick•5/30/24, 10:21 AM

Just noticed last night that the red stop button isn't disconnecting the motors when it's pressed so the only way stop the joystick moving is to physically unplug it.
Is this a known issue and if is there any way to resolve it ?

walmis•5/30/24, 10:56 AM

If it recognizes the TM and not Virpil/RS is very odd. Since both use the same signalling. The only thing comes to mind is it's not making a proper electrical connection at the 5 pin mini din socket.

Ok, any suggestions to rectify that?

AlexS•5/30/24, 10:57 AM

Thanks for such a speedy reply.

walmis•5/30/24, 11:06 AM

Make sure it's inserted fully. Try pressing a button on the grip and push/wiggle the connector in the base and see if the button indicator in the VP configurator shows any action.

Boo Berry•5/30/24, 12:58 PM

I have the winwing adapter but need the stick to be just a bit longer. I made my own adapter and extention to go from vp rhino to winwing grip but now I have to make/buy a plug for the wiring. I see that the rhino base uses a 5pin female and the winwing uses a 6pin male plug. What does 6th pin do, do i need it. I have a short 6pin to 6pin, can I pull the 6th pin out and use that cable?

TheAmazinGreat•5/30/24, 1:36 PM

Can you not put the WW adapter on top of your new adapter and go 5 pin to 5 pin?

Rhino (5) to new adapter (5 to 5) to WW adapter (5 to 6).

Boo Berry•5/30/24, 1:50 PM

Unfortunately it would be too long at that point. Plus the adapter doesn't really tighten very well. Always has this loose feel where you can't tighten it enough and twists.

TheAmazinGreat•5/30/24, 2:09 PM

I’ve seen a few people use a rubber oring to help snug it up. But have you tried removing the screws and seeing what’s inside the WW adapter? I don’t think it’s just a straight pass through cable with one pin removed. I think there is more to it. But if you can get it apart you may be able to transfer the guts over to your adapter.

Boo Berry•5/30/24, 2:23 PM

I did take the screws out but that's as far as I went. I was afraid to try and take the wires out in case I broke anything, still have to use it for now. I'm hoping there is a wire diagram showing which pins are being used and where they go.

TheAmazinGreat•5/30/24, 3:51 PM

I want to say there is a PCB in there from what I have seen others discuss on the topic but I am not sure, you may have to ping Walmis.

Aiva•5/30/24, 5:07 PM

When I start VPforce Configurator any idea why the "green circle" is on the upper right corner?

walmis•5/30/24, 5:12 PM

Either hardware trim or an external application has set the trim position there

Number481OP•5/30/24, 6:26 PM

do you have multiple devices? The auto-launch is to automatically launch instances of TelemFFB for pedals/collectve. Theres no auto-launch checkboxes for the master device since that is the instance that gets created when you actually start the app.

Number481OP•5/30/24, 6:28 PM

You didn't say anything about the 2nd image, but it is informing you what it is going to modify in the IL-2 config to enable telemetry export towards TelemFFB.

Number481OP•5/31/24, 2:40 PM

6, I think. Only because you are limited to PID=2050 to 2055 in configurator. No idea there's a reason for that other than walmis probably never considered anyone would even have 3 going simultaneously

Not sure where best to post this, but I'm all set to receive my Rhino. Order is paid, and I think there's a few orders ahead of mine. I am concerned about when it will ship however. I travel for work every month. Who can I coordinate with to ensure that, when my order is ready, it ships so that it arrives when I am home?

AndyHill•6/1/24, 2:37 PM

Walmis can probably try to help you, but in the end it's up to the delivery company to get it to you on time

Touch_Of_Legend•6/1/24, 2:56 PM

I would contact Walmis and ask for a delayed shipment.

Tell him the day you return so it can be shipped while you’re home and can deal with any local taxes or shipping fees directly.

SamNFTY•6/1/24, 3:10 PM

I'll reach out. Thanks

@walmis Any idea why TelemFFB created a 68 GB log file?

LastRonin•6/1/24, 5:15 PM

Got the text file open looks like it loops an error when TelemFFB is running and the device is disconnected, over 600,000,000 lines of code as it pushes a log every millisecond:

The latest version should handle device disconnection properly and attempt to reconnect. The log size is quite amazing though

thedicecooler•6/2/24, 3:09 AM

With damper enabled, I keep getting oscillations and shutdown. I've been messing with LPF tuning etc. and have reduced it where I dont get the shutdown for just touching the stick. However, I still get slight vibration/oscillation but only in the x-axis, yaxis is smooth. Any suggestions? Trying to fly DCS Apache. When I get the ETL vibration effect from TelemFFB, it goes bananas and vibrates strongly until I shut it off and back on.

Try damper filter at 4Hz, but yeah it shouldn't be this sensitive at those settings. Check the belt tension on the X axis too.

walmis•6/2/24, 4:18 PM

My bet would be to check the wiring, see if wiggling the data wires near the plugs give some connected/disconnected beeps. Also check if the motor LED blinks steadily when powered.
