Ppost if your LUA sets up nicely, it never worked for me, you must have the ‘secret sauce’ 
SThe lua mostly works, but still not with the trim hat - I think it might be something to do with the fact that this diagram implies it's actually an 8-way hat
SSo here's the issue: I load up DCS and open the controls menu for the Mi-24P, which has my controls from the WinWing stick/base copied over to the WinWing stick/Rhino base. Most of the keybinds work as intended, e.g. the depress of the trim hat is written as JOY_BTN19 which corresponds correctly. However, the up/down/left/right of the trim hat are displayed as JOY_BTN_POV1_U, JOY_BTN_POV1_D, JOY_BTN_POV1_L, and JOY_BTN_POV1_R respectively.
SThe VPForce software has instead written these inputs to 45, 46, 47 and 48, and does not recognise the diagonal inputs as buttons.
(@walmis here’s my settings
(I had the master gain at 100% too
NWhat version is the latest Rhino firmware? Mine is v1.0.16. Is this old?
Hno, it‘s the latest. you‘re fine
NThanks. I am waiting for a new firmware. I already asked Walmis to include my grip support.
HYeah, me too. For the support of custom fan control.
SHey everybody,
Since weeks now, I don't understand why my Rhino self disconnects while I'm holding it about 3/5 seconds during a hard corner while in Dogfight on IL-2 or DCS.

SIt's very disapointing.
KWhat is your amps settings in the configurator?
CThat is not normal. Most likely a setting issue. Also what do you have to do to recover the ffb?
HCheck the telemetry in the VP configurator while holding the G and see if the Amps exceed the set Amps, if so you need to reduce the spring force a bit. When you overpower the max strength of the motor (which is easy with the wrong settings) it will quit and need resetting.
HBasically you want settings, that do not exceed the maximal amps when you pull maximum deflection with a given spring setting.
S
Smy actual settings
HSpring 100 is too much probably. I drive mine at 75 or something (at most). However the interesting part is the telemetry left of what is depicted in your screenshot.
CWow that is some serious spring gain.
BSpring is usually overriden by pot 1.
Its at 100 for me as well but the pot is at 40%

BBut that part is cropped out from the screenshot
HWithout seeing the actual telemetry it's all guesswork
H@Subtile The math goes master gain x spring gain x poti (if set to spring). The result shouldn't be any higher than 70-80%, otherwise you will reach max amps before you reach max deflection - and this is the cause of the tilt out.
HYou could also increase the max motor current to 30A. Your motors will heat up slightly faster under max load though. -> earlier engagement of the fan.
ASpring gain is most likely not the reason for the disconnects (I assume by disconnects you mean it does that beep and it turns off the motors forcing you to cycle the emergency switch).
The problem is most likely one of the lpf settings in conjunction with other effects

SOk, I'll try some parameters
AWhat are your effect settings? Perhaps a screenshot of those
A(Also do you have an extension?)
S
Sactually it still "tilts"
HEffects gains are only relevant when the sim doesn’t provide own ffb or when made sticky. And they can‘t increase the max strength beyond the master settings.
S
HEverything apart spring isn’t even activated.
I don’t see something suspicious at first glance tbh….

WCan you elaborate "self disconnect" does it give a long beep or there's a USB reconnection event?
WOr short beeps ?
Ssame as the kill switch operation
WSo it gives short beeps and then reverts to normal operation?
WProbably would be helpful to capture the log text in the Debug tab when that happens
SI'm catching some logs right now with a try in IL-2GB
Sto send here
HMaybe a loose connection at the power switch?
SI'll try tomorrow then send you logs here
AYes but depending the game, maybe he cranked friction up which is notoriously unstable and games generally won’t override it
Pusually diagonals are actually two switches combined and require the firmware to note that two switches are depressed e.g N & W for the NW diagonal. Perhaps that routine is missing in the vpforce firmware?
S
SAnyone know why my master gain, periodic effects etc might be repeatedly resetting themselves to 0%?
S
TDo you have a sim running?
SYes, DCS - Hind flight. TelemFFB is on
