I am fairly certain it was a combination of engine rumble being higher and having my F-4 profile set to "helicopter" ....If I can guess how that happened, I jump between fixed wing and helos in Heatblur's cold war server fairly regularly, and so I must have inadvertently switched the F-4's profile over to helo when I though I was tinkering with UH-1 settings.
I have the same issue which started with updating to the new Firmware (17b4), not related to DCS for me (I am running IL2). My only success so far has been to uncheck Friction in the Settings tab. I have tried some other suggested tuning without success.
@Varibraun interesting, I'm having no issues with IL2, I run friction at 100% in the telemffb along with dampener and inertia. Everything worked great until I updated telemffb which then required configurator to be updated which then prompted me to update firmware. I've seen other posts about friction issues with the new firmware, but no concrete solutions.
So telemFFB should load the vpconf profile in the VPForce config folder which has the file name matching the aircraft. So in the settings tab of telemFFB I can specify the vpconf file for the jet that telemFFB is recognizing at the moment. Is there a way to actually know what is loaded into VPForce FFB configurator? Does VPforce configurator show the name of the vpconf file anywhere?
You can also set a default profile to load when TelemFFB starts and enable the global flag. With the global flag enabled, that profile will get pushed to any aircraft that does not have its own profile set if the previously loaded aircraft had one set.
As you can see, I have an AJS37.vpconf, telemFFB is configured correctly and loads it, but the VP configurator just shows a blank in the field (where yours shows default)
ok, thank you. I just would like a way to confirm the correct profile gets loaded by telemFFB. I guess I can keep a record of the settings to confirm what I see in VP configurator.
Having an issue with the Rhino, I fly DCS warbirds mainly, all works well except for the FW190A8 and FW190D after some minutes of use the fan always comes ON and after a while the motors quit, only happens with this two planes
Some odd things about your settings. First, with the Fan start temperature at 33 and end at 50 it is not surprising, that the fans turn on. You can easily expect an idle temp in the high 30s in a gaming session. So far so good. Second. 100% spring is a lot. You are most likely overpowering the motors in the heat of the battle. Try to have the stats on top and see what kind of amps they are pulling when flying those Aircraft (supposedly in a Dogfight). Adjust your spring so you don't exceed maximum amps at maximum deflection. Also with the telemetry up, see what temps you reach before the motors quit.
They don't stop at the end temperature (that wouldn't make much sense) - it's just where they reach their maximum (set) speed. Your fan settings are fine. If anything put the maximum speed to 100 if you need more cooling. But from your description, I don't necessarily think it is a temp problem. Or at least we can't be sure.
Just a sudden thought that I should’ve figured out how long an extension this can handle before buying, I’ll be somewhere between 250-300mm I think, will the standard motors work well or am I SOL

It depends on what you will be using it for and how much force you are wanting to get from it. For my use (mostly jet fighters and dogfights) I have the standard rhino without extensions as a side stick and @SR-FWinger[73]_David monster rhino kit with the stronger 86 motors for extensions as a center stick.
Hi! I recently did a update of both the firmware and the software for my VPFORCE base. Ever since I experience random high force jerks (to the left). In some occasions it overpowers the motor and I need to restart the base. Do anyone else experience the same?
