Have 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.

Where 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.

Reed•8/10/24, 6:41 PM

Very frustrating. I want to start from scratch to see if it fixes it

witcoheOP•8/10/24, 6:44 PM

I 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%

Reed•8/10/24, 6:47 PM

I always run both at 100 haven’t had issues until latest dcs update.

Store 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?

average of ~20 a month I've heared, supposedly half of those queued don't come through in the end

Fr4Ged•8/11/24, 1:57 PM

well I got mine pretty much like 5 months ago and have no. 444.
last sent was 663.
that is like 44 per month.
once you are like 200-100 units in front of it it will go fast though

JIGGAwest•8/11/24, 3:46 PM

I'm curious if anyone else has had issues with centering of the sick and what they've done to resolve it? I've had the base for almost a year.

- I've tried balance spring adjustments
- I've tried static force
- tried static force and balance spring together

I have an extension with a decent offset so it's not naturally balanced. Ultimately whatever setting I try, it won't hold a tight center. It's always off, and based on its previous movement direction it's off by a different amount. This causes lots of issues when trimming, especially force trim in helicopters. I've fiddled with this so many times, but I almost never get consistent behaviors. Especially after recalibrating. I'm pretty lost at this point. Any ideas or help would be grateful.

walmis•8/11/24, 3:49 PM

Did you try balance spring + adaptive recentering?

Wwalmis Did you try balance spring + adaptive recentering?

JIGGAwest•8/11/24, 5:19 PM

yes, I can't get balance spring to do anything consistent either. Adaptive recentering is a bit slow and throws off the trim.

Stryker990•8/11/24, 9:03 PM

okay sometimes when something happens (game crash or something) the rhino does get proper FFB effects (it doesnt have any spring effect for example) and some said reseting effects in telem helps but for me in most cases only restarting the PC helps any tips on this? disregard in this case i was dumb and turned the spring force to 0% via pot#1 no wonder there is no effect >.>

WhiteHawk77•8/11/24, 10:54 PM

What’s the distance between gimbal centre and grip connector? I’m trying to work out how long of an extension I want to get for my mounting setup that will roughly match my Virpil CM3 with 200mm extension plus Z-extension that adds about another 100mm. Cheers.

Reed•8/11/24, 11:36 PM

I used balance spring, and the data of centering and added a little bit of a gain curve to the spring effects and now works pretty good. I’m still having issues with my horizontal wigging out when going through ETL so I’ve had to turn my ETL down to like 5% in teleffb

Reed•8/11/24, 11:37 PM

It’s really frustrating that my horizontal axis is having these issues, but I’m not sure how to solve it. It even doesn’t on the default config settings.

JIGGAwest•8/11/24, 11:54 PM

i tried the gain curve. But for what ever reason the stick goes bonkers if I add any amount of gain. It actually destoyed my extension last night the shaking was so violent.

Reed•8/12/24, 12:25 AM

I also experienced this but was able to just put enough of a dip to improve my middle strength

DCS

- Added rotor RPM and damage model telemetry for CH-47

DCS/MSFS/X-Plane Helicopters

- Added hardware force trim option for pedals. @SerGeant
- Can be bound to button from master instance (i.e. joystick)
- Enable "Use buttons from master device" in the feature options
- To bind to a different controller, use the loopback app (and set grip type in pedals configurator to loopback).

Limitless VR & Simrigs•8/13/24, 6:48 AM

Mate those settings are a game changer, One of the crew on here suggested settings of 280 roll and 190 pitch. The default of 100% for both in DCS is simply not enough force going to the Rhino. The F4 always felt to slippery, now with the changed percentages its a dream and with heaps of force feedback. Those percentages can go as high as 500% each.

Anthony•8/13/24, 9:32 AM

Nah, it’s fine as is

Anthony•8/13/24, 9:33 AM

When you add dampener effects in the Rhino software, it makes it a dream

Anthony•8/13/24, 9:34 AM

I think the F-4 simply demonstrates how poor FFB effects are implemented by DCS since they only account for “spring” and nothing else

Anthony•8/13/24, 9:35 AM

Other modules just don’t suffer from it as much

Anthony•8/13/24, 9:36 AM

Upping the FFB gain just creates
unrealistic feedback which, while it can work, isn’t how the stick would feel in the real plane

Anthony•8/13/24, 9:37 AM

Just add 30-40% “dampener” instead and you’ll likely have replicated a decent feel of how the bob and bellows feedback worked in the real plane

Anthony•8/13/24, 9:38 AM

The stick definitely stops sliding around

PiNKSH!T•8/13/24, 2:01 PM

So depends on personal taste. Irl the f-18 is fly-by-wire so there's no trim like that but if you'd like to you can set it up in the config or the telemffb app to behave that way.

ameister•8/13/24, 4:17 PM

Hi - Newbie here. I am trying to set up my new Rhino for helicopter force trim but cannot seem to get my stick to center to the new position once I force trim. My settings and button bindings of my attempt to force trim are attached. Would anyone be so kind as to explain what I am doing wrong here? I was trying to upload a short video but it would not let me b/c of size. Essentially I was trying to demonstrate is that I can move my stick while holding the force trim button I have assigned and the center circle does not move away from the center to the point where I release the force trim.
