Anyone here who tried the DCS Chinnook yet? Trying to set up controls right now, but i'm not getting any spring forces.
Sfrom what I've seen, there is no FFB support yet
BCan't wait to have it added in a few years then lol
CJust to clarify you mean there is no FFB support in DCS?
DFor the Chinnook. Other modules in DCS have FFB support (if I understand your question)
LSetting up controls rn... "cool I have 3 extra hats in my cyclic grip" 
... (glances left in the cockpit) there are SEVEN hats in Hook's collective thrust lever and there's another grip with even more hats next to it
"I need a new collective 
or two "

TUsing the trim button doubles the trim asked for instead of holding current position.
LSo you're getting a centering force? I couldn't figure it out yet.
TA bit, not as much as other choppers. The trim doubling is annoying.
RI am barly getting any centering force and the double trim is crap.
SI think double trim is a problem with cyclic that trim and goes to center position.
NThe 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.

SEnjoy your vacation! 
RYup. I’ll use override trim for now
SOkay im honestly confus: what do i need on and what off to get a working trim release in telem for the hook right now?
SIt currently works as having no spring would like to have spring force and using the trim release to force trim
NDelete 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).

SOooh the Override has a subsection didnt even know that :MurmKek:
SThx
Shm do you know how to make the trim up/down/left/right in telem recognise my trim switch (got a WW F-16EX) and it seems to only recognise buttons but not the 8way hat....
NI think it will only work if you have "hats as buttons" enabled in configurator.
S:grizzlyFacepalm: tried to but forgot to hit apply in the software now it works thx
AWould it be hard to have it work with pov hats?
AWould prefer not to rebind a bunch of stuff 
Fso the DCS Chinook currently does not support force feedback then?
ACorrect, all has to be done via telemffb
A(Or the configurator I guess, but that’s not the preferred way)
Fthat is kind of lame for it being an ED module
NWould be a q for walmis. As it stands currently, doesn’t look like the pov hats come through in the input report we get from the api in TelemFFB.
AIt is early access, and there’s a lot to do, I’m sure it’ll be added at some point
WHave a question about the Configurator "Store Setting" button. After adjusting the various effects to my liking, I then click the "Apply Settings" button and then the "Store Settings" button. Should those settings survive a power down of the stick. If so, mine doesn't seem to be doing that. It is always comes back up with the "factory" settings after a power up.
UPDATE: I did some more testing and it seems that powering down the Rhino (using the power disconnect button) and then restarting my pc, restoring power to the stick and the starting the configurator keeps the last loaded settings. However, when I started my pc and stick after them being powered off overnight, it returned to default settings.

RWhere is latest default config. Getting really bad reverberation with ch47 and my stick is going crazy and erroring out. Resetting doesn’t work with button or motor reset. Belt tension is good. It’s definitely something to do with the spring hz setting and natural dampening compensation.
RVery frustrating. I want to start from scratch to see if it fixes it
WI have had something like that happen if I power up the stick with Pot 1 turned to 100% and the spring slider is at 100%
RI always run both at 100 haven’t had issues until latest dcs update.
RI have however had issues with reverb in the past related to changing settings and my 40cm extension
N<configurator_path>\configs\RHINO-defaults.vpconfRAlso my teleffb is having a lot of trouble while in game and staying running when changing settings. it stops responding every few seconds.
Rive had to close it and reopen to make any changes then after about 5 min its becomes unresponsive.
AStore Settings absolutely should store to the firmware and should survive any restart/unplugging of your computer or the device.
Can you be more specific about what settings are not being stored?

CHow can I know how far down the wait-list I am? I placed a request in June but did not get it any serial number or anything
AYou can poke the bot, either via DM or / command here
COoof long wait 760 rhinos to go 
Cthanks
SIt goes quickly and sometimes folks will bow out when they're number is up so keep positive Trust me, it's worth the wait!
Trust me, it's worth the wait!WI can't seem to reproduce it now. If it happens again I'll revisit the issue in Support.
MWhat’s the wait time like nowadays for his the motor kit?
Cwhat are people doing to mount this on this off the floor?
