Hello folks, is there a good setup for DCS and the rhino? i had some strange behavior when using the ffb function in dcs. when flying the f14 everything was working as intended. jumping into the f18 there was no real center at the stick and the plane was rolling and pitching the whole time. now with the f4 i disabled ffb in dcs and in the rhino software and use it as a "normal" base. maybe someone can send me some settings for the rhino software and dcs?

MashedPotato•6/18/24, 4:22 PM

If you had no centering with the hornet, that's a dcs bug, happens sometimes with ffb, with any module. Restarting the client usually fixes it. The hornet's ffb implementation is decent. The F-4s is pretty bad unless you tune the fuck out of it

DirtySanchez228•6/18/24, 4:25 PM

ok, thx for the feedback.

Swan•6/18/24, 8:56 PM

Hey guys - I'm approaching single digits in line. Is there any accessories I'll need to buy that will go along with the Rhino. I think there's a thing that limits the range of motion. Thanks

AndyHill•6/18/24, 11:14 PM

there are throw limiters, yes, I'd recommend getting some (or building some yourself once you've had the chance to try the rhino out and figure out what kind of limiters you need)

AndyHill•6/18/24, 11:14 PM

Also what grip are you planning to use? Some require adapters, some don't

AndyHill•6/18/24, 11:15 PM

also I believe there's a metal connector piece or something like that for the grip attachment, I'd look into that especially if you intend to switch grips from time to time

I've got a WinWing F-16 stick, so I added the adapter. I have a 3d Printer, do I NEED to order limiters or anything that I can't print?

How I will mount It I have no idea yet, so i'll poke through here for ideas. Full 6dof, actuator based rig w/ a RigMetal Ultimate.

Yup - so this plate will work for floor mounting (feet area) on the RigMetal (it's 4080 based, standard extrusion)

walmis•6/19/24, 10:12 AM

Some people prefer metal, for durability, when changing grips often. I personally haven't had issues with the stock ones. Just don't cross thread the stock one and it will last forever

SamNFTY•6/20/24, 12:59 PM

Ok. I didn't know helo's had that, but I see how it would be helpful. Sounds similar to the A/T on a Boeing, if I'm understanding correctly.

Stryker990•6/20/24, 1:02 PM

One thing that i think would be nice is if ur in AP the collective moves since you might disengage the AP if you accidentally move the non ffb collective while a ffb collective wouldn't completely negate that, it would still mean that there isnt a significant difference in ingame and irl collective position

Stryker990•6/20/24, 1:03 PM

But honestly i dont know if thats even a thing that can be replicated or if i missunderstand stuff

SamNFTY•6/20/24, 1:06 PM

Another solution would be to disable input from the collective while AP is on. Honestly, I figured helo AP was only the cyclic, and maybe the anti-torque pedals, but not collective

Best thing about the collective is in my eyes the feeling of vibrations/periodic effects and the comfortable configuration of friction, inertia, damping and travel. I'm loving it!
