TheAmazinGreat•12/2/24, 2:19 AM

That is TelemFFB. It is a separate program that helps manage aircraft and sim specific effects based on telemetry outputs from the sim.

AAndre the amount of settings in the configurator is kind of overwhelming to be honest ...

TheAmazinGreat•12/2/24, 2:27 AM

Check the knowledge base section for the manual. This is also a quick way to get started: 📃general

The basics are: effects tab and settings tabs are multipliers of each other so 50% spring in effects and 50% spring on settings will be 25% final setting.

Start with 100% in effects tab and 0% in settings and tune up on settings tab to desired effect. Best to do spring last as mentioned in the linked post above.

Friction and inertia at high settings can cause instability so don’t put more in than you need.

There are two tabs because the sim can (but doesn’t always) override the effect %. I think most, if not all, sims will only override spring. So your other effects, if not overridden by the sim, will remain as is.

Reduce the effect intensity/gain for the deceleration! Or the constant force gain in VP config.

Hiob•12/2/24, 12:33 PM

@Number481 I don't now the values from the top of my head, but maybe the default gain for decel. should be a bit lower....... You know, protect poeple from themselves.

Sorry, went to reply to this a few times but the day got away from me. Looks like the documentation I was using was outdated or something. Using the correct screws helps. Just got it mounted and am happy with the way it looks at first. Did you have any degredation issues or problems with the bolts loosening? Or was it pretty solid during your time using it?

Dracks•12/3/24, 5:54 AM

Don't worry, there's plenty of time to answer

.

I had no trouble mounting it. I had taken the MTS support for the Rhino and no problems after the first few uses. Now I've had the Rhino for 7 months and it's holding perfectly. I'm sure I'll have to tighten the screws in a few months, but everything's holding! I've put some photos in the "showcase" sub-section, so you should be able to find them easily.

MMayo How long should I expect?

Hiob•12/3/24, 7:31 AM

Better to ask @walmis for the current lead times. I have the feeling that the stats stated by the bot are not that relevant anymore. (and of course you can have one much faster as a DIY-kit)

Parabe11um•12/3/24, 2:18 PM

Hello, with my order number coming up, I have some questions so I can plan.

I am currently running a 200 mm extension for my VKB MCGU, I like it a lot, so would prob prefer a similar feel.

Does anyone have experience or ideas in terms of extension needed for the Rhino for something similar? I've heard some people say extensions are not required.

I've been looking for an excuse to try the WW F-16EX grip, provided an adapter is used does it work well with the Rhino (e.g., any missing buttons or axis)? Also any thoughts on extensions for the F-16EX grip?

Hiob•12/3/24, 2:21 PM

The Rhino has quite a long lever to the connection thread per default. To equalize with your current throw length a 10mm extension will probably be sufficiant. In the knowledge base you find technical drawings were those measures are laid out.

That doesn't mean though that 20cm doesn't work. A lot of people (me included) use a 20cm gooseneck extension.

Offset is no problem. There are plenty of options to balance an offset or heavy grip.

When using balance spring are you all balancing in all 4 quadrants or extremes of each axis or just so it stays centered in the middle.

TheAmazinGreat•12/4/24, 3:27 AM

The goal is that with all effects off you can move the stick to any position and it holds there. You can also play with the "static force" setting to achieve the desired effect. I ended up not needing any balance spring, but just a bit of static force. It all depends on your setup.

Hiob•12/4/24, 6:42 AM

In fact, I would start with the static force if any balancing is needed.
My Approach is this. Turn off all effects and center the stick dead on the middle of the grid. If it drops significantly in any direction, apply static force until it doesn't.
Now place the stick to the second to last corner on the grid. First north than south than west than east than nw, ne, sw, se. Etc. The stick should drop in the direction you put it with the same "speed". If not tune the static force accordingly.
If you have difficulties balancing or a very long extension/ heavy grip, you may add some friction before starting the process.
After that you can add some balancing spring.

Also along those lines is there anybody that has or can share their personal setups for different op
