Was it working before or is it a new build?

new build, never powered it on until today

hmm, try unplugging one motor, see if the other comes online in the app

issue found, when case is closed, E-Stop button pin bends and power not going through. works fine with open case. Going to bypass it for now, thank you very much @walmis

which direction to look if (only) one axis feels grinding gears on gain 60%+ ?

Check belt tension, check if the pulley sits tight on the motor axis, make sure the belt pulley isnt rubbing against your seat (ask me how I learned)….

LastRonin•8/16/24, 11:18 PM

May be a Walmis question, but is there a way to disable the buttons on the VPForce device, especially if you're using a VKB blackbox for the grip? Niche circumstance but some programs have a total button limit and I'd like to free the number of buttons that VPForce reserves by default.

PiNKSH!T•8/17/24, 2:27 AM

you can use the loopback app + HIDhide to make the vkb grip & Rhino seen as one. Of course only downside is you will likely need to rebind in sim

Hi how do you go about ordering an attachment for a VBK joystick to fit a thrust master base,

LeLv30_Superbus•8/17/24, 9:51 AM

You can mount a VKB grip mechanically with an adapter available from VPforce - is that what you want to do? If you have a TM base, it won't connect to the grip though. The grip would still require a VKB Blackbox to work.

Are you also planning on buying a Rhino?

Red Magic•8/17/24, 6:54 PM

just unboxed my rhino last night. Is it supposed to have a sort of cogging feeling right out of the box? does that go away once it's hooked up and it does its own movement

Number481•8/17/24, 7:01 PM

With no power applied, you will feel cogging in the motors. As soon as its plugged in, that should disappear.

Red Magic•8/17/24, 7:15 PM

I knew it was gonna be big but I'm still surprised at how big it is

I gotta think up a way to mount this thing

Haaank•8/17/24, 7:19 PM

Col. Sanders•8/17/24, 8:03 PM

It's pretty amazing to turn it on the first time and feel how smooth it is. Sometimes I turn it off just to feel the cogging and switch it on to feel the magic.

shafs164•8/17/24, 9:20 PM

I am looking at both of them.

Red Magic•8/18/24, 5:36 AM

the telemetry app doesn't see dcs for some reason

LastRonin•8/18/24, 5:42 AM

2nd downside is loopback doesn't bring over any axis information. It's just buttons and POVs.

Red Magic•8/18/24, 5:45 AM

the loopback thingy seems to make the 64 kinda work but the telemetry app still doesn't see dcs despite it being open

Red Magic•8/18/24, 5:45 AM

so i can get force trim to kinda work

Red Magic•8/18/24, 6:14 AM

Number481•8/18/24, 12:30 PM

Not true... the very first time you enable DCS support, it adds its entry to your export.lua and installs its export script. DCS may require a full restart after the first install (though I don't think it does) but at a minimum, you will need to restart the flight. If a new version of TelemFFB includes an update to the export script, you will need to restart your flight if active, but do not need to restart DCS.

You can start TelemFFB whenever you wish. Before or after DCS start, or even while already in flight.

Kkaltokri Why shouldn't they work?

It's the same connection between grip and base

Hi. Just tried MSFS for the first time with Rhino. In the manual it said to unbind the axes in the sim if I want to use force trim/autopilot trim. But when I do that, no control input is detected in MSFS. So I had to bind the rhino to aileron/elevator axis. But then force trip didn’t seem to work even though I have checked the box in the app. Can anyone help?

Dracks•8/18/24, 6:03 PM

You must download TelemFFB and check the "axis control" in the effects tab

DDracks You must download TelemFFB and check the "axis control" in the effects tab

Dentedend10•8/18/24, 6:06 PM

Yea it’s checked

Dentedend10•8/18/24, 6:06 PM

I checked it when flying one specific plane. Maybe have to do it for every one?

Dracks•8/18/24, 6:08 PM

Yeah you must do that for all new aircraft. And I recommend you to create a config file when loading the aircraft (sorry words are missing and I'm full occupied now

)

Dracks•8/18/24, 6:09 PM

(Config file create in "configuratior" and choose it in Telemffb in each aircraft)

Dentedend10•8/18/24, 6:10 PM

Thanks I’ll give that a try! And so axes must remain bound in MSFS to the Rhino?

DDentedend10 Thanks I’ll give that a try! And so axes must remain bound in MSFS to the Rhino?

Dracks•8/18/24, 6:15 PM

sorry i mean NOT bound in MSFS. But TelemFFB keep the info for your next flight

DDentedend10 Thanks I’ll give that a try! And so axes must remain bound in MSFS to the Rhino?

Number481•8/18/24, 6:16 PM

No, don't bind them in MSFS.. it will conflict with what TelemFFB sends and your controls will flutter all over the place. You can set the default for MSFS to "control axes" in the global/offline editor. Then you will not have to enable on each specific aircraft... Easier to record a clip than describe the individual clicks :)...

Dentedend10•8/18/24, 6:17 PM

Thanks makes sense, awesome! I had it like that for one plane but then I tried a different one , that’s when controls didn’t work. So I’ll do the global setting next
