Quick boot won't help in this case, I just recommend disabling it as it ie a source for a lot of windows rot.
And it doesn't actually make booting up any faster what so ever.

@walmis Hey Walmis, I found a bug in telemffb. If you invert your aileron axis. In the configurator. The lateral force will be in the wrong direction. I changed the sign in the aircrafts_msfs_xp.py (side_accel = -telem_data["AccBody"][0] * self.lateral_force_gain). Now it works for me. But an invert button like the deaceleration force would be nice.

Moe1875•6/27/24, 11:16 AM

thats why I inverted the axis. the center point is movin in the opposite direction than the one I move the stick.

walmis•6/27/24, 11:21 AM

So assuming the axis moves in the correct direction in the configurator, to verify the effect : the lateral force in telemffb should add some force in the direction of the pull i.e. if you roll left wing down, and hold the plane level using rudder the stick should feel a little pull to the left due to gravity.

Wwalmis So assuming the axis moves in the correct direction in the configurator, to veri...

Moe1875•6/27/24, 11:48 AM

ok I can verify the effect. I assumed I had to feel the stick move to the rigth if I turn left on the ground. But this is wrong?

Hiob•6/27/24, 1:11 PM

Just to clarify: You don't have any axis inverted in DCS? When you have (properly) set the axis in the VP configurator, the axis in DCS should not need inverting.

Will3D•6/27/24, 8:44 PM

@walmis Hi Walmis. What's the chances of getting an auto calibration routine when a device is powered up ? I know almost all joysticks motion probably fall within the one motor rotation so the system knows where centre is. But for some non joystick designs ( like yokes) it is harder to do.

Will3D•6/27/24, 8:44 PM

I'm also working on a pedal design that would also fall into this category. The idea of having to calibrate before every use isn't ideal.

walmis•6/28/24, 4:26 AM

Hey, I'll research this, but in the meantime you can do something like this:
Let's say you're building a yoke and when powering it you need it to startup in the correct calibration. Now, let's say the simplest the position to startup is the fully forward one (for a stick it would be centered).
Then what you would do is to push it fully forward, reset the motors and check what the "raw" angle is. Adjust the belt/pulley so it's roughly 2000(+-500).
Next do the full auto calibration and store it.
After that, before powering on, move the yoke fully forward and it should start in the correct calibration every time.

Will3D•6/28/24, 5:08 AM

Thanks walmis, I think I understand. But would this process be dependent on being only one rotation out of the middle rotation ? What if there were 4 rotations from one axis end to the other ?

smitty•6/28/24, 5:18 AM

Ah, 4 rotations shouldn’t matter. Because the full forward calibration point will be between 0-4096 and it’ll be happy at startup. Full back will be ~18000 or something.

Arno•6/28/24, 6:31 AM

Would it maybe also be possible if the stick calibrates to 3800 full left to 3700 full right that the controller will remember that 3900 is actually a left defection, left of 0? So that exact centering of the physical motor doesn't matter as long is there is no ambiguity in position (because <360 degrees rotation overall)?

Arno•6/28/24, 6:33 AM

I guess how this would work out is calibrating to find the middle and then the max deflections from the middle.

does the axis move in the configurator?
Once you select the T50CM2 grip profile, the hat switch should "just work", do other buttons work?
