What 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?

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
S
TStick should go limp when DCS starts and come alive when loading a module. If not, try without TelemFFB and see if it still does the same.
SIt does seem to come alive, but strangely there appear to be no spring effects whatsoever unless I tick "Override DCS Spring" on TelemFFB
SFound the issue - I'm an idiot! Didn't realise I didn't have the "Force Trim" setting in DCS settings checked 
sorry for the false alarm folks

G@walmis my reservation ticket has been called, but unfortunately I can't proceed at this time due to other factors, but I have another party interested in taking my slot. Can I just give them the Order Request form and change the contact details?
WYeah, go ahead
Phey guys when running il2 what % should I set the constant & periodic effects too in config app? I have them both at 50% for dcs atm
NFor the TelemFFB effects, its all still based around %50 for periodic and %100 for constant. However, unless its changed recently, the native effects for buffeting, runway rumble and weapons are extremely anemic and lead to very little feedback which is why there are duplicate effects written in TelemFFB.

MHow hot and how much current do the motors use during prelonged usage? Since the design uses DC motors I assume that they use a lot of current at all times when using it
Pdepends, when not doing anything the motors consume 0…most of the time mine are using just single digit watts

Myea but in a dogfight you are putting constant force on the stick
Mand I was wondering about the amperage
HDepends on your settings. The motors can pull up to 30 amps (rated 36 amps, but some safety margin is good advise). They heat up rather quickly (1K every other second or so under full load) until the fan kicks in and slows down the heat buildup. (Or stops it depending on the FAN and the amount of amps pulled).
HDon’t confuse the motor amps with the amps drawn from the PSU though. They are not the same.
PHi my vpforce seems to be loose. I’ve confirmed that this sound is the vpforce and not the stick. Does anyone know how to fix this?
P
TUnscrew the dust cover, tighten all the screws etc that you can see without taking it apart.
HAnnoying micro movements or sounds that I found (and fixed) so far was: Loose screws on the stick extension, wide tolerances at the stick connector which I fixed with some tape and loctide, a crappy shaft connector on my TM grip which I fixed with some 3D printed wedges and last but not least, a loose pulley on the motor side, which needed some loctide for the screw.
Hsee if you can stop or produce the sound by moving the belt pulleys by hand (with and without holding tight on the stick). Before you open the Rhino check that the small pulleys sit tight on the motoraxis‘ without play,
Ajust be careful about overtightening
HMine does the same. I belive it is the 5mm washer that has the wrong Height to compensate the difference. I Ordered 0.1mm washers to adjust perfectly....
Hthat Picture was without washer, my washer was to thick, so after installing the other sides had the level difference
