sorry guys one more question do I need the purchase the upgrade machined aluminum grip mount? is it necessary to have the metal for larger extensions or is this just something people wanted to make them feel better?
Depends on how ham-fisted you are.. I joke.. but a few people have accidentally cross threaded their grips/extensions onto the default 3d printed adapter.
I and most other users have never had a problem. That said, if it had been an option when I ordered SN#85.. I would have, because... why not.
I'm still having connection issues with DCS. It has worked a few times but then it won't work for a week. The computer sees the base, its powered on but i don't see it listed in DCS and have no control. Does anyone have any ideas?
when i restart the computer, with only the winwing throttle and rudder pedals on a powered usb hub and the rhino plugged into the motherboard dcs recognizes it and it works. Once i attempt to connect the other powered usb with the mip the rhino stops working and i have no ac control. I need to disconnect the mip and restart the computer again to get it to work
hmm.. sounds like some low level usb bus shenanegans on your motherboard.. well outside my area of knowledge. Only help I can offer, and its not much help at all, is to ensure your MB's usb drivers are updated. Maybe try to figure out how your USB ports are split across busses and test with the hub(s) and/or the rhino on different ones.
In the past I had a lot of strange problems with different usb hubs. Then I decided to attach all things directly to my mainboard and a 5port USB3.1 internal card. All problems wend away. Not all usb hubs are evil. But every time some has strange problems with devices, I ask them to try without usb hub and most of the time it was the root cause.
im probably being thick and need to do something simple , in dcs in the chinook does it have the trim release before moving the stick ie it then holds the stick in place, i have set the stick to no springs ffb in settings is there a binding im missing for it?
There are 2 different binds for trim in chinook. The trim release bind and the cd AFCs release bind. I went ahead and bound the AFCs release as it doesn’t do anything right now. I use teleffb override trim for chinook and added some damper and friction until they get it sorted. Using the actual ingame trim release causes double movement of the center after releasing the button so not ideal.
See that screenshot that is linked directly in the forum post link I sent. You need to enable the override spring option and then set up the hardware trim bindings.
I'm just now setting up my Rhino after some months, mostly job-life stuff, but also I was waiting to see if I can get a VPC MongoosT-50 CM2, which is the one I really wanted. I was able to snag one on eBay, brand new. Just received it and now when I attach it to the Rhino I get no button presses, none. Grip is totally dead. Pins in the connector all look good, and I'm sure it's seated correctly. Plus, I have a TM Wartog setup and both the standard TM grip and my add-on TM F18 grip work perfect when mounted on the Rhino. Additionally, the VPC grip works perfect on the Wartog base. ???
Start TelemFFB. It checks the export.lua script in saved games and asks you to let it add itself if it’s not there. It also copies over its own lua script
Are you guys fighting to recenter the stick. It feels counterintuitive super easy to pull back. In fact when you start to pull back it takes you that way forcefully and then I have to fight to recenter rather than it being harder to pull back and self centering. Is that correct?
Uhh…no. Sounds like you’ve got something crossed up somewhere maybe but more info needed. What sim/aircraft are you flying? Are you using TelemFFB and does it happen with/without?
