Doubt thats it. I really used some force to make sure its properly connected with and without screwing it. But I think the issue is between the adapter and the base cause I just got it today and according to the manual the newer versions should show bad connections between the stick by turning on input 32 which is off

KaminiOP•9/6/24, 7:06 PM

As if the base doesnt detect the adapter

Prometheus [Prom]•9/6/24, 7:09 PM

you’re right that the 32 indicates poor connection, not a failed stick…..mine would register the correct buttons only on firmly pressing in the stick plug to adaptor. Sounds like your issue isn’t that though

jskibo•9/6/24, 7:28 PM

Just finished a build and it worked for about an hour before the USB disconnected (while still plugged in).

jskibo•9/6/24, 7:28 PM

Unplugging and plugging mostly gives 3 beeps (three green light flashes on board) but no USB connection

jskibo•9/6/24, 7:29 PM

Every 25 or 30 tries I get a quick connect and disconnect, or it may stay connedcted for 10-15 seconds

jskibo•9/6/24, 8:13 PM

Tried 3 other powered hubs as well as direct to PC, also the three cables I have, Same issues

jskibo•9/6/24, 10:56 PM

jskibo•9/6/24, 10:56 PM

Put it on the laptop and I get this

TheAmazinGreat•9/7/24, 5:25 AM

bad usb cable?

TheAmazinGreat•9/7/24, 5:26 AM

sorry just saw the part baout trying other cables. eliminate powered hub all together maybe as another troubleshooting method.

TheAmazinGreat•9/7/24, 5:27 AM

also maybe check to make sure the USB cable internal between the board and the USB socket hasnt come loose somewhere.

jskibo•9/7/24, 1:52 PM

OK this is driving me nuts now. SO far have tried 7 cables including 2 new Startec ones, four powered hubs, 2 unpowered as well as pluging into every USB port on the motherboard with restarts of the OS between each try. I thin tried my laptop, then my Son's PC and finally my driving SIm PC. All fail with the above "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed". Its the only thing plugged into the PC beside the mouse and keyboard and nothing is currently plugged into the board itself except the USB connector. I also have the USB power saving mode turned off on all PCs

jskibo•9/7/24, 1:53 PM

@walmis any help on the above?

walmis•9/7/24, 1:59 PM

Hey, I'd check the breakout USB wire that's included with the board. Maybe there's a bad solder joint under the heat shrink. It would be the fastest way of fixing it, otherwise I could mail you another one.

My brother is putting his Rhino together with the same exact parts I used. Winwing adapter -> extension -> Winwing 16EX. He's having trouble getting the top part of the adapter to lockup and stop turning.

Ice•9/8/24, 3:09 AM

Any ideas? He's got it tight tight but it still has a little left/right play.

Number481•9/8/24, 11:56 AM

Yes, you can use the Sim/Class Defaults editor to change the defaults for an entire sim and/or a class of aircraft.

But also, when you are creating a new aircraft entry, it tells you that you can use regex for the match string. So for example, Cessna 152.*Cessna 152.* matches both Cessna 152 AsoboCessna 152 Asobo and Cesna 152 01 LiveryCesna 152 01 Livery.

There will be the odd case where a developer (and even some of the default aircraft) are not consistent in the livery naming and a simple "dot star" will not match all of them. In that case, more advanced regex can be used. For example Cessna( 208B)? Grand Caravan.*Cessna( 208B)? Grand Caravan.* will match any aircraft name containing the string Cessna Grand CaravanCessna Grand Caravan with or without 208B208B.

smitty•9/8/24, 8:01 PM

also you can pull down the airplane/livery name to get suggestions when making the new plane. just pick the one where the full livery name is replaced with .*

hello guys

im trying to set up my vprhino for flying with f-5 but it seems that the trim is very strange i cannot trim down enough is there a workaround or something?

Kaidrick•9/9/24, 4:09 AM

I can't seem to start telemffb normally since the last update (20240812). I've also tried the newest 20240908, same problem. 20240726 works perfectly. Any thoughts?

walmis•9/9/24, 7:43 AM

Hey, did the adapter insert nicely into the base? If all troubleshooting steps have failed, you can request a replacement via the order form.

Number481•9/9/24, 10:57 AM

seems like an issue connecting to the base. Are you on the latest firmware? Can you post the whole log file from %localappdata%\VPForce-TelemFFB\log%localappdata%\VPForce-TelemFFB\log

Jumara•9/9/24, 3:24 PM

Hi, just started with building my FFB Setup. Today I finished modifying my MFG Pedals, according to the build in the knowledge section. So I pluged it in and it got instantly recognised. But when I turn the master gain and spring up nothing is happening. In my understanding I should get some resitance on the motor. Also it doesn't show any raw value for the axis. I'm sure the wiring is correct, checked it several times and it matches all the reference pictures I can find. The motor status in the software shows ok and I can feel that the anti cogging Kicks in when i power it up. Any suggestions?

Number481•9/9/24, 3:31 PM

you need to disable the y axis in configurator in order for it to be recognized as a single motor setup.

Glaive(Rikk)•9/9/24, 4:07 PM

My emergency stop button has stopped working again, is it a logic switch or does it actually cut the power? Just wondering if I can do the same in telemffb rather than stripping it all down for the third time?

Hiob•9/9/24, 5:55 PM

The „emergency“ switch is a real switch that cuts the power physically.

HHiob The „emergency“ switch is a real switch that cuts the power physically.

Ahh ok, in that case I guess I'll need a new one as it's done this 3 times now.
Thanks

VPS_Choki•9/9/24, 8:29 PM

anybody fly the f-5? and maybe can help with setting up the vpforce

VVPS_Choki anybody fly the f-5? and maybe can help with setting up the vpforce

KaminiOP•9/9/24, 8:39 PM

I just turn on FFB in DCS and use that. No telmffb and no VPForce configurator open. And that works good enough for me.

VPS_Choki•9/9/24, 8:46 PM

can you trim enough down so u have force on the stick'

KaminiOP•9/9/24, 8:48 PM

Not sure what you mean with force on the stick? Do you mean that its loose when you trim it far enough down?

VPS_Choki•9/9/24, 8:48 PM

i mean that when u let the stick go the plane goes down

KaminiOP•9/9/24, 8:49 PM

I haven't tried that much of down trim. Only enough for level flight but I did notice that to achieve level flight my trim was mostly nose down.

KaminiOP•9/9/24, 8:50 PM

So the stick was forward over the center. I don't even know if that's realistic. Never paid much attention to stick position.

VPS_Choki•9/9/24, 8:50 PM

yeah thats the issue i have the stick being forward of the center

VPS_Choki•9/9/24, 8:50 PM

me and a friend asked a real pilot and he say normally the stick doesnt move atleast in the swiss air force one

KaminiOP•9/9/24, 8:52 PM

Might be a dcs thing. Cause when you use a non ffb stick and you trim it the stick moves in game

GGlaive(Rikk)Ahh ok, in that case I guess I'll need a new one as it's done this 3 times now. ...

Hiob•9/9/24, 8:52 PM

probably loose connectors. You can tighten them with pliers (after disassembly)

KaminiOP•9/9/24, 8:52 PM

And I think DCSs ffb just mimics that

VPS_Choki•9/9/24, 8:52 PM

yeah thats for sure i will do some research then

VVPS_Choki yeah thats the issue i have the stick being forward of the center

Hiob•9/9/24, 8:55 PM

That is perfectly normal for any aircraft that isn’t real fly by wire. For level flight at cruise speeds and higher the trim is nose down/stick forward. The faster you go the more the wings want to pitch up, so you have to counter that with trim.

TeufelHunden•9/9/24, 9:32 PM

my computer always has this icon when my base is plugged in is this normal? Is there something I need to do in order to get this to go away?

Doubt thats it. I really used some force to make sure its properly connected with and without screwi
