Does the force feedback trim in the F-14 interfere with the autopilot? I feel like I'm fighting the autopilot when using the Rhino vs when I was using the Virpil T50CM2

I went to the site yesterday and could not get to the url. I can get to the landing page but not to any of the sub pages

What subpages? its straight to the order form.

@walmis, I am actually trying to move back in the line, since I won't have any time to play DCS in the next 6 months

goobernoodles•8/9/24, 2:42 PM

Is there any way to know what position you were in when you first pre-ordered? I pre-ordered in Feb. and hadn't joined this discord until recently. I'm at #95 in the queue now - just trying to get an idea of how quickly/slowly it's been going.

goobernoodles•8/9/24, 2:42 PM

Or is there a rough number of units being shipped a month?

Alighierian•8/9/24, 3:07 PM

The original position is probably tricky to find out at this time, unless Walmis kept records of that.

For a rough indicator, you can have a look at this: https://discord.com/channels/965234441511383080/1122080764163522571/1265701326478643322

You can even turn it just 90 degrees so the cables come out the side... then you just Swap the axes.

They sure are dragging out the patch….

Reed•8/9/24, 5:17 PM

Yup of course. I wouldn’t be surprised if it didn’t drop today

So far newy saying today

friday dump & run after a massive last minute crunch sounds like a recipe for success

Alighierian•8/9/24, 5:41 PM

I see no way that could possibly go wrong.

"Btw, 2-week company holiday starting next week."

Reed•8/9/24, 5:44 PM

What holiday

Alighierian•8/9/24, 5:45 PM

just a general dig at that kind of dump&run.

Bonus points if a dev does it prior to new year's seasonal holidays, so 'people can enjoy the new patch'

Welcome, you must be new.

Austringer•8/9/24, 7:48 PM

There is a home page and the order form is a sub page of the main page.

Austringer•8/9/24, 7:50 PM

Vpforcecontrols.com being the main page.

Austringer•8/9/24, 7:50 PM

Either way it appears to be fixed now

Nope, all fine in that department. Things go wonky if you go into back seat and then back to front, but if you stay in the front, everything except ACLS (HB bug) works fine FFB wise.

Anyone here who tried the DCS Chinnook yet? Trying to set up controls right now, but i'm not getting any spring forces.

Scarlet•8/10/24, 6:35 AM

from what I've seen, there is no FFB support yet

SScarlet from what I've seen, there is no FFB support yet

Can't wait to have it added in a few years then lol

"I need a new collective

TelemFFB has basic support whatever it means, I'll test spring forces now

Using the trim button doubles the trim asked for instead of holding current position.

So you're getting a centering force? I couldn't figure it out yet.

TrigaNZ•8/10/24, 9:21 AM

A bit, not as much as other choppers. The trim doubling is annoying.

Reed•8/10/24, 10:29 AM

I am barly getting any centering force and the double trim is crap.

slowmover•8/10/24, 10:43 AM

I think double trim is a problem with cyclic that trim and goes to center position.

Number481•8/10/24, 11:26 AM

The only way is to not bind the trim button in the game (it only understands sprung joystick logic) and then use either the hardware trim in configurator or, if you are using it, the hardware trim in TelemFFB.

If you have the trim button bound in the game it will double the inputs since it expects the joystick to be sprung and thinks you are going to let the stick go back to center after you have pushed the trim button.

Okay im honestly confus: what do i need on and what off to get a working trim release in telem for the hook right now?

Stryker990•8/10/24, 5:47 PM

It currently works as having no spring would like to have spring force and using the trim release to force trim

Number481•8/10/24, 5:49 PM

Delete the trim binding in the game... that will only work for sprung joysticks that always return to center as you've seen (regardless of the trim mode you select in its special settings).

If you're using TelemFFB, enable the Override Spring and the Hardware force trim options. Then bind your button for Trim Release (and optionally, Trim reset +hats).

Stryker990•8/10/24, 5:49 PM

Oooh the Override has a subsection didnt even know that :MurmKek:

I think it will only work if you have "hats as buttons" enabled in configurator.
