@walmis sorry to ping you, but just about to use my rhino in a dcs op first time since the recalibra

@walmis sorry to ping you, but just about to use my rhino in a dcs op first time since the recalibration you did. Is it ok for me to import & apply old config profiles or will that break the new calibration you did on the x motor?

I don't know of course what Walmis did with your motor, but in general the auto calibration in the VP config is supposed to be a user level exercise that can (and must) be performed whenever you change something, like installing a throw limiter, change or re-tighten the belts etc.
So I think it is save to say, that you certainly won't break anything if you do a calibration. Just look at the monitor in the config tab and see if everything is properly centered. Otherwise do a calibration.

I think that is saved on a deep firmware level and not affected by user profiles.

Stupid question. Are the PC fans required for VPForce 5V or 12V.

When you don't know if you need it - you don't need it.

Hiob•10/16/24, 7:42 AM

Sometimes the motors act up - and Walmis can usually fix that remotely - but if you don't encounter any problems. Don't worry.

Hope to find time to DIY the mount and get it going.

f14billy•10/17/24, 5:52 PM

Anyone ever had this issue with the 86 motors with adaptive recentering overshooting and not being able to find the center? Once it starts it won't stop unless it's completely shut down or recalibrated or sometimes I have to put the stick dead center and hold it for a few seconds and this only stops it temporarily. After some use it comes back. Luckily when using a game with TelemFFB on this issue goes away and works as expected. Once the sim is closed and TelemFFB is not in use it comes back. Since I always use TelemFFB this isn't an issue. Just annoying haha.

Hiob•10/17/24, 7:05 PM

Sounds as if you dampening is to low. Try to adjust the adaptive dampening (right side of the settings screen). Spring proportional dampening or smething like that it is called…..

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:10 PM

Spring strength proportional dampening is at 100%. This issue doesn't happen all the time and TelemFFB fixes it when running and in use.

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:14 PM

I've only been able to recreate it semi consistently by bumping the stick lightly a few times to where the position is just to the edge of the centering circle in the screen. Then when it tries to center it it overshoots the center and that behavior starts.

Reed•10/17/24, 7:23 PM

Are you using hard limiter or software limiters. WHen is the last time you calibrated? THis is very interesting.

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:23 PM

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:25 PM

Here is a video of me recreating it. It works just fine until I do the light jumping then the oscillation grows gradually until it reaches the maximum shown in my first video. No software limiters.

Reed•10/17/24, 7:26 PM

What is your static force or balance spring set at if using?

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:26 PM

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:27 PM

Settings and you can see the maximum oscillation to the left of the centering circle.

Reed•10/17/24, 7:27 PM

One more thing, are you positive you don't have something ingame bound to these axis, like vr hand controller or similar. I have had this happen and I chased this for days.

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:28 PM

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:29 PM

Effects settings. Nothing is bound to the axis and nothing running in the background. The original rhino I have with the 57 motors does not have the issue with similar settings except balance spring is different due to the lack of extension.

Reed•10/17/24, 7:31 PM

Very interesting man, above my knowledge

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:36 PM

And lastly here is a video of it being fixed temporarily by making a few circles and leaving it centered by hand.

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:37 PM

TheAmazinGreat•10/17/24, 7:39 PM

I would guess your spring is too low. In effects tab change all spring to 100%. And set slider at 50% in settings tab

TheAmazinGreat•10/17/24, 7:41 PM

Your current settings are giving less force than stock rhino.

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:42 PM

My current settings give me way more force than the stock rhino actually but I'll try and see if setting max spring takes care of the issue.

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:44 PM

Ok I did some testing. Setting the springs to 100% in both the effects tab and the setting tab fixes the issue. So you are right. Adaptive recentering is needing more spring strength to work correctly.

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:45 PM

Luckily with TelemFFB it doesn't need that much strength. It works perfectly with my original settings.

TheAmazinGreat•10/17/24, 7:45 PM

At 100% on spring your monster rhino is 1.7x the stock. You have limited it to 49% of that

TheAmazinGreat•10/17/24, 7:46 PM

70% in effects tab and 70% setting slider multiply

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:46 PM

I'm haven't done any numbers on strength. Just telling you what I can feel through my arm

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:46 PM

But you are right. Spring strength fixes the issue. I'll remember that if I ever need to use it without TelemFFB running.

TheAmazinGreat•10/17/24, 7:47 PM

You have a shorter extension and are running slightly less than stock, so it might just feel stronger due to the extension

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:47 PM

In the original rhino I had the spring gain dialed back to avoid overheating so your numbers are probably right.

f14billy•10/17/24, 7:48 PM

Anyway. Thanks for the help!

TheAmazinGreat•10/17/24, 7:50 PM

No problem, I would recommend keeping effects tabs at 100 and tuning via sliders but your preference may vary

Number481•10/17/24, 7:51 PM

remember that the settings here only apply when no game (or telemffb) have started their own spring effect. Those values only apply to the default spring effect that is started when using the base as "just a joystick".
