Quick question about setting up the stick.
I’ve managed to do the install and the set up.
Only problem I have is if I bank or climb and release the stick, it centralises but the aircraft stays in the bank / climb until it crashes.
Left stick starts the bank, but it continues until I give it right stick, then it continues turning.
I don’t seem to be able to get it not to continue until it’s crashed.
Spent over an hour last night, but I’m hopeless with computers.
Any idea what is wrong.
Stick powers up and stays in the center

Not sure if I can follow. As far as you describe it, this is expected behavior from an Aircraft (well, depend a bit on what aircraft precisely).... You need to counter control to bring it back to level. If you deflect your ailerons to get in a 30 degree right bank and then neutralize the control input, the AC will stay banked until you deflect the ailerons in the other direction and level it again. For pitch it is a bit different (because AoA/Pitch is also a function of speed), but a FBW aircraft like the F-16 e.g. will keep any attitude you steer it to until you give opposite commands.

Easiest way to tell if there is a problem with your input device (I dont think so) is to bring up the controls overlay and see if the virtual stick position corresponds with your physical stick.

As Hiob above says you roll, into the bank then centralise the stick to stop the roll at the desired angle of bank and hold the attitude with some back pressure on the stick otherwise the loss of lift due to the bank will let the nose drop.

Just to clear this up.
If I bank over, it continues to turn,
Even when the stick centralised itself, it’s still in the turn until you put opposite input.
Then it will continue that direction.
I’m over halfway through my PPL, it’s not supposed to do that.
It’s either right bank or left bank , up or down, no matter what I do.

Hiob•7/9/24, 12:17 PM

Continues to roll/bank or continous to turn? The latter - of course it does, as long as it is banked. It will turn in the direction the lift vector is pointing....

Hiob•7/9/24, 12:18 PM

What are your (virtual) controls doing in relation to the physical?

OneillOP•7/9/24, 12:26 PM

If I initiate a turn with stick and rudder, the aircraft will start the turn, it then continues until it’s almost inverted and into a spiral downward.
Applying full opposite input then makes it the same.
There’s no levelling the turn.
The stick returns to the center position while the aircraft just goes on its merry way to destruction.
Plug in the old warthog base and it’s fine, flys like a normal aircraft.
I’m on circuits at my local airport in an Ikarus C42, was hoping this feedback stick would help with my practice touch and go as there’s no feel with the warthog.

OneillOP•7/9/24, 12:30 PM

That’s exactly what’s supposed to happen, but there’s no middle ground to level the aircraft.
I can turn the ikarus without even looking at the instruments while I’m flying with my instructor.
This bloody thing won’t let me do that.
It’s either full left/right , up or down.
Nothing in between.
It’s definitely me as I don’t know what the hell to change to correct it.
As the saying goes, all the gear and no idea lol

If you open the https://vpforcecontrols.com/usb/rhino/ does indicator move smoothly when you move the joystick within the square?
I guess it could be the controls binding in MSFS is wrong

Yes, it works as the instructions.
Just don’t know where to go from here with it

Sometimes i wish I’d have just kept all the money and bought myself a used Ikarus.
I’ve spent £12 k on it so far

amadeus•7/9/24, 4:01 PM

What sim? Ima reckon it could be MSFS and maybe you have the wrong types of axis bound?

smitty•7/9/24, 4:28 PM

there should be no axes bound in msfs. it all comes from telemffb

amadeus•7/9/24, 4:30 PM

But maybe something is bound tho, by default and causing the issue?

smitty•7/9/24, 4:31 PM

yes could be.. luckily the rhino isnt one of those common sticks that just auto-configure themselves

Hiob•7/9/24, 6:14 PM

Have you checked in the VP configurator if your Stick has a valid profile loaded? Do you have set any „load on startup“ profile in Telem that you subsequently removed?

Hiob•7/9/24, 6:15 PM

Trying to make sense of the log, but not really in to deep….

SundogZeus•7/9/24, 7:32 PM

It does have a valid profile loaded, but it cant find the LUA script for DCS even though it's in the right place. I disabled MSFS and Xplane support and don't get the Unable to connect to simconnect any more. But it still can't find the DCS telemetry. Here's more log file with some strange errors:

Have you tried to delete the export.lua and let it install a new one?

OneillOP•7/9/24, 8:34 PM

Right I’ve got it sorted out .
The only problem is the stick doesn’t return on the screen when the actual stick has.
So if I bank over and then gently push the opposite way, it’s not smooth and sticks in that position on screen.
Absolutely nothing like real flying.
Any ideas ?

Hiob•7/9/24, 8:54 PM

Sounds like a controls binding issue in your sim. Double bindings perhaps?

Is that what you mean.

Hiob•7/9/24, 9:11 PM

I can‘t help you in detail, since you are using a different sim than I do. But I would start with checking the axis bindings or anything related to pitch and roll. Delete any binding you don’t intend to use.

I'm connected based on the message at the bottom of the screen, but I dont see any position information coming from the motor. I must be missing something...any ideas?

it is not center aligned what can I do ?

Hiob•7/10/24, 9:33 AM

I think most people use some kind of extension, which in most cases can be rotated freely. Also with a center stick you usually want the grip in an angle towards your right hand to have an ergonomic wrist position. Of course I can’t tell how it works out for your needs, The only solution I can suggest is some kind of extension.

PokePoke•7/10/24, 9:34 AM

Okay. is it normal? or mis printed?

PokePoke•7/10/24, 9:37 AM

i think is too much off centered

PokePoke•7/10/24, 9:38 AM

if all guys have like this, I am okay.
