Spring seems to be working now after a shut down reset but but trim is not responding all the time in the F-14, controls are set and are receiving commands for trim all ok but trim only moving the stick "sometimes"

Biggest issue is the Congifurator setting Gain to zero everytime i make a telemetry adjustment More annoying than anything.

Not seeing anything suspicious there. @Number481 can TelemFFB override Master gain slider too?

@Fourgrinder @Nemisis Wolf
Any time you make a change in TelemFFB, the entire config is reapplied. If you are using the

Override Configurator Sliders

Override Configurator Sliders

feature, whatever you have configured will get pushed to the device again. If you have master gain enabled and set to zero in the overrides, It thinks you want master gain at zero.

Hi none of the settings for DCS have that override configurator slider active! I only fly DCS and Jet's props and Helicopters and all specific aircraft have that setting unchecked. I haven't even been in this section to alter anything since I received the Rhino. the only setting i have adjusted are the main sliders in the configurator and the main effects panel in the FFB telemetry.

Trim seems to be an issue in all the jets I've tried so far with the stick only reacting to trim commands it seems "whenever it wants to" and not all the time! Maybe I need to increase/decrease a setting.

Hate sounding like a complete noob as I'm usually good at figuring this sort of thing out myself but I'm just scratching my head when I look at all the adjustments re read the manual and still can't figure out what's causing these 2 main issues.

lots of adjustments required in the standard DCS setups from what I can see with many settings just feeling way out of whack, but I can deal with that it's DCS and anyone that's sat and mapped out keybinds in DCS for 20 modules isn't really going to mind going and mapping out the effects for each of those modules. But getting that Master Gain reset every time I adjust one thing and have to reset it to feel if my adjustment was what I wanted is a real pain. Got to be one overide setting as you say but I haven't created any personalised Config files other than adjusting the sliders on the FFB telemetry effect page.

Number481•10/4/24, 9:45 PM

Use the help menu in TelemFFB to create a support bundle and post it here or DM it to me. I believe you about the setting not being enabled, but unless I misunderstood the symptom of the Configurator sliders resetting everytime you change a setting in TelemFFB, that is the only feature in TelemFFB that could/would do that.

The support bundle will include your system settings, user config and recent logs.

Nemisis WolfOP•10/4/24, 11:48 PM

Seems I fixed the issue hopefully. I reset the configurator to factory settings and the calibrated and went from there. Changing settings in FFB telem no longer cuts the Master Gain

Will keep you informed.

Hi all, my rhino developed a "shimmer" or a "purr" (very low amplitude, high-frequency vibration) which is noticeable when the stick is moving, and goes away when the stick is kept in position. Is this a sign I need to re-tighten the belts? Or is it something else?

RReed What yall printing your limiters in?

Hiob•10/5/24, 9:32 AM

I would recommend PETG for the throw limiter. PLA is to hard and PETG has a slight elastic property that makes it more pleasant for this application.

RReed What yall printing your limiters in?

TheAmazinGreat•10/5/24, 12:32 PM

PLA+ should be totally fine for this application

Bob Bushman•10/5/24, 12:32 PM

And I found petg very easy to print, just needed higher temps. Even less shrinkage and creep as well, and here regular pla and petg costs exactly the same.

PETG always gave me trouble so I tend to avoid it. What are you doing for bed adhesion to make it easy?

Bob Bushman•10/5/24, 1:04 PM

I just cranked bed temp on my ender 3 til it stuck.
Going a few degrees below material glass point can be a good start point, think i was somewhere about 80-90c.
I do also have a glass panel on my bed so I peobably loose a fair few degrees between the surface and the bed heater/sensor as well.

The Configurator being reset to factory setting has indeed fixed all my issues I was having and brought all my aircraft to life. So it seems a bad setting in the configurator was the issue, Thanks to you and others for your help!

Sageh•10/5/24, 2:23 PM

What do the "4-Way Hats" checkboxes on the Settings page in the FFB Configurator do? I have a TM F-16 grip, and have selected "Generic Grip" as the grip type, since there was no direct match. At least for this setup, the checkboxes don't seem to do much anything whether they're checked or not. Manual says nothing about the checkboxes.

TheAmazinGreat•10/5/24, 3:40 PM

If your buttons are working as they should I wouldn’t worry. Generic Grip is the correct setting for TM. Also make sure you are storing config when making changes.

Number481•10/5/24, 3:48 PM

If you are using “hats as buttons”, it blocks the diagonal combinations like U/L, U/R, etc. if you are not using the hats as buttons, it doesn’t send the diagonal pov events that would be part of an 8-way hat.

Sageh•10/5/24, 3:54 PM

Did I get this right: The "Hats as buttons" checkboxes will make it so that when you push the hat to (say) upper right, then it will put out either the button for right or button for up, but not up and right simultaneously. Whereas the "4-Way Hats" checkboxes will just disable the diagonals from 8-way hats. Is this correct?

Number481•10/5/24, 4:15 PM

Normally, a hat will generate hat specific events like “pov_l” or “pov_ur”. The hats as buttons feature will generate generic button numbers in stead.

The 4-way feature will block the diagonals, turning what might be electrically an 8-way into a 4 way.

Sageh•10/5/24, 4:24 PM

Copy that

. Looks like the generic grip will just generate only button events for the hats regardless, so it doesn't matter for my current setup. I'll have to remember this when changing grips though.

Sageh•10/6/24, 12:31 PM

Related to my previous question: Are there plans to increase the number of directly supported grips in the configurator, e.g. for the TM grips or the new Virpil Flanker grip? And is there much benefit in having direct support for a grip, except for possible additional axes like analog hats or such?

I have to import a vpforce configurator file (.vpconf) each time vptelemeffb is started. Things like changes to the settings page etc. I assumed these are stored in the usb perm memory and load on start of the device (so reading from device to the VP configuration). Must be doing something wrong. Anyone any ideas? Just to note it does have changes I made when I first set up the device such as using the wingwin grip - clearly something I've done is the problem

There is no functional difference between launching configurator from the TelemFFB menu or launching it directly.

Are you using the vpconf startup feature in the TelemFFB system settings? That will push whatever profile you have chosen every time TelemFFB starts.

I recently started using a physical throw limiter. After calibration the axis all match up correctly in the configurator, but once I get into certain modules the y axis is rescaling by itself. The full Y axis throw is limited down to 50% once the ffb telem kicks in. The limited range is reflected in the configurator and in DCS. If I close out FFB telem I get the full axis again. I have nothing in the effects tab of the configurator turned on. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
