Interesting. I'd never thought about a balance spring since I don't have an extention for my setup.

HDefinitely needed with an extension or any offset grips at least for Heli. Not sure if you would need it for airplanes.

HLoose connection?
FRight. I'd definitely check the wiring to make sure the power cables are firmly connected to the board.
When the disconnect happens it would be good to see the voltages on the configurator in case maybe the problem is the power supply or a faulty e stop switch.

.could the use of an much stronger PSU with an output of 14.6 amps at 24V , but set in the software to 30Afor motors (57BLF03) and max PSU current 8.0A be the cause for my system to get Fault_Unstable and Fault_UNDERVOLTS codes?
.the 57BLF03 specs stated its rate amps is 15A . Do you guys believe is safe to increase the PSU current to 14A to prevents motors from stoping due undervolts?
.I had been leaving the power settings to rhino default setting since the beginning , but now im starting to get this faults codes...
RSo I should record that screen with OBS maybe. 
Thanks for the reply.

JHello, are there any news on this topic?
HI have this issue as well because I use an outside connection USB controller and in my case I have to start two instances of it everytime and re-select my in/output. Is there a way you design the app so it's all in one where we map multiple instances of in/out? I know there may be a way in telemffb with master and child instance and I tried it but it didn't work. Number481 I think is looking into it.
MHaving some issues when trying to follow your guide.....basically, at -100, the stick will be held firmly fully forwards - I t will almost snap forwards once past the centre...I can move it back towards the centre, then it will become loose as it passes the centre point. At +100 setting, the stick wants to fall backwards, resistance increases the further forward I push it, but it does not snap back like it does when applying -100....If I set zero, the stick will fall backwards. Any percentage setting between will only affect the stick once it goes past centre, so I am no able to get it to stay where I place it with any setting.....why is this? I have everything unchecked as per the guide...here is my conf file
DumpF18.vpconf7.27KB
MMy settings are pretty much default, but I also get an annoying oscillation around the centre point if I turn up my gain pot anything more than about 20%, which sucks as I want some stronger force......whats the best way to dial this out please?
HHi Mark, first with no effects on etc perform the calibration procedure.
Next make sure effects are off click apply. Then on in the balance spring option make sure to unlink x and y and + and -. Click apply then work on each axis independently. Initially the stick will flop around depending on extension and weight. The goal is to get it to the point it isn't snapping back to center but instead stays where you put it. As for the oscillation that would be a question for walmis. Post screen shots of your setting and make a video if you can.

CAnyone ever got a problem with the VPForce Winwing adapter to fitting in the joystick hole?
CWhatever way I try to insert it, the shape seems to big the fit and I did not change any settings when I printed my joystick gimbal...
MYes. I also had this issue. I made a custom replacement alignment plate for the part shown with the arrow in the WW adapter that fits correctly.
I can look for that part and post it if you want.

CThat would be greatly appreciated! It would save me a lot of work!
MI believe this is the file I used to replace the original arrow plate. You may need to slightly scale if it's too tight.

J"the virpil alpha and alpha prime have left hand variants" Do these fit the Rhino base out of the box?
(Hiya I have an issue I updated telem fb to latest version which then told me I needed to update rhino firmware which I did but now when rhino configuration starts I get an error saying incorrect version 182 expecting 181 or something similar firmware is v1.0.17b2
AYeah should have no problem working
RAny reason why vpforve is using 5.5-7.5% of my cpu?
R
RWhen I shut the program down, the cpu utilization in cpu 0,1,4,5,8,9 goes back to idle.
Rwhat is the normal cpu utiliation, do we know this number?
TI'm trying to fly the A10C II and am noticing that while force trim is working, I'm not feeling any vibrations in the stick. Is this supposed to vibrate when I shoot the cannon?
.yes, but you have to set it up in telemffb
TWhat are the steps to complete that? Is it like that for other aircraft as well? I fly the Tomcat and felt that the FFB was pretty good.
TTelemFFB is a separate program from the configurator that adds more forces than are native to the sim using telemetry exported from the sim. Download and install from here.

TThe documentation on how to use and install it is in the Rhino manual. Assuming you are flying DCS, there may be one additional step for the installation to get it going which will be in the manual.
WHaving issues getting the brake axis and twist axis to be recognized for the constellation Alpha. Raw Values don't change when either axis is turned. Thumbstick axes work fine. Any tips on how to debug? Latest firmware installed v1.0.17b12 @walmis @Red Magic
Red, did you do anything to fix this? Found some comments from you above.

TI installed Telem FFB and now my game crashes to desktop every time I try to get into a plane.
TWorks fine if I close TelemFFB
WI think it's my stick. VPC's software can't see those axes either :/
WAny suggestions on a more robust stick?
KCheck Export.lua and disable other tools in there to check if there are incompatibilities.
TI'll check. Not sure if it matters but if I start TelemFFB after I'm already in the plane it works great. My DCS is a clean load too, just reloaded my computer yesterday.
TOnly thing I'm seeing in my scripts folder is SimHaptic and TelemFFB
MWill do thanks - thought I followed the steps, but perhaps left out the apply after calibration and unlink....
VIm having some trouble with the vpforce winwing adapter. The vpforce app detects the adapter when I select it, but all buttons on the winwing grip are constantly pressed and dont work. Suggestions?
MHi, OK, tried this again, and having similar issues I use a virpil Z extension on both my Rhinos, and when I have the stick at centre or forward of centre, I can adjust the negative balance spring value (approx 11%) to make it stay in a placed position. But if go backwards past the centre, then the stick wont stay where you put it - even at 100% negative..of course at this setting, once I place the stick anywhere past centre in the forwards direction, it snaps fully forwards.
MAnother thing I notcied on calibration ( but not in normal use) is that when you rotate the stick around the circle at full deflection, there are places where I am feeling a cogging ( forwards) and other places ( around 4 oclock and 8 oclock) where I can feel a notching....any ideas whats going on there?
