SO, any suggestions on a stick that will survive the FFB abuse?
SO, any suggestions on a stick that will survive the FFB abuse?
Jis there a firmware update for the stick?
WI don't think for the stick, but there was for my virpil base
Jyou have avirpil base to test it with?
WYes, didn't see the twist or brake axis in that software either.
Jlet me look at mine
WWhen I say didn't see twist or brake axis, I mean any input on those axes wasn't picked up. I can see the thumbstick though. And the actual base's inputs.
Jdid you try the firmware update with the stick connected to the base?
WYes
Jyou may want to put in a ticket with virpil
WJust did that, we'll see what they come back with
Jif neither the VPForce configurator or the VPC configuration tool show any input to the axis, it could be a hardware issue.
WHopefully I can just replace that connector. I have a feeling one of the pins has gone bad. Nothing is crooked.
WYeah, that's what I think is going on
RWhat is the best WWI simulator out there that plays well with the Rhino and FFB? I saw the IL-2 Flying Circus one but I don't think I want the Base game unless people recommend it as worthy.
WThank you very much for helping me with a sanity check though
Ji had an extension with had the DIN5 connector break off into the Rhino base. could be your issue considering the lights
WI don't know if Rise of Flight works with FFB, I doubt it does, but that's the only alternative
WI don't think anything has broken off into the base fortunately.
JDCS and IL-2 is all I'm aware...
WAlso.. Flying Circus is awesome man, I think it's very much worth it.
RGot DCS covered, was feeling that I wanted to use the Rhino with an old biplane and see how they feel in FFB. One of the first videos I saw of a Rhino review the guy was using it with a WWI plane sim and the stick was limp until the airwash straightened out the ailerons. VERY COOL. Hoping there are others that have WWI planes and are using them with the Rhino.
RAwesome. Was getting the Rhino to work with it hard or as seamless as with DCS? Its on sale right now in Steam.
WI’ve only flown DCS FFB, but I can’t imagine it’d be difficult to set up
WFlying Circus is no different than IL-2 GB, plenty of folks use the rhino there. I suspect you won’t have much if a problem.
NTelemFFB Update - 20250101
Relatively small update to kick off 2025. Happy new year all!General
- It is now possible to bind and use button presses from the master instance to control force trim functions in the pedal/collective instances
- In the force trim settings for the respective device, enable the "use buttons from master" option and then bind your button(s).
- Fix some UI sizing issues
MSFS
- (FS24) Fixed state detection during avatar walkaround for telemetry/effect pausing
RYeah but I think an official update from the head guy on them would be nice

HHi all, new to the VPForce Rhino, im about to get one my mate does not use any more, it was a pre built unit and he has had it 1 year with little use, im only getting the base unit and power supply.
Out of the box what Joysticks does VPForce support, Thrustmaster and Virpil of just Thrustmaster. ??
Also I have started reading the Discord sections and there seems to be a lot of tweaking and setup (maybe reading wrong here) I'm wanting to fly the Apache and KA50 II in DCS is it easy to get this working with the software and DCS or do I have to start reading all the sections on setting it up.
If you experienced guys were settings some one new up with minimal fuss what steps would you take when it was all hooked up ready to switch on.
Thanks

CI'm trying to get the hang of air refueling in the F18/F14/F4 in DCS. Anybody got any Rhino or DCS settings that particularly help with smooth controls around center? I've got a Rhino, VKB MCG and 200mm extension
RHi all, on the list for a Rhino. I am looking at grips and leaning towards a Virpil Warbrd (nice and simple), will I also need to purchase the Virpil controller too?
BVirpil and thrustmaster grips runs directly, no adapter or anything like that needed.
RThanks very much, appreciate the reply.

IIRC it works really well out of the box but DCS is lacking some effects which telemffb adds, and that takes a little bit of tweaking
BI havent really tweaked much, just a basic calibration and range of motion check.
Simply put, scaling down axis range so I get full range output without having to remove body parts.
Pretty much only use dcs though so using the FFB settings there, telemffb just add some extras.

RHINO #0851 Has Shipped!

OI've only tried in the Hornet. Small dead zone of one or two and add some curve. Fingertip pressure.
RThe 64 at least is very easy setup. With Telem program open and DCS too (sitting in the cockpit) you have sliders and options available to tweak what kind of feedback and how much you're getting. I recommend turning the ETL shake down, it's too violent by default.
For trimming the 64, use the DCS ingame trim button and not the VPForce one.

RFor all modules make sure you calibrate the VP in the configuration program. Something like hitting the calibration button on the bottom, going through the sticks full range of motion, then clicking the button again
RVirpil and apparently thrustmaster grips run directly with the Rhino no issue. VKB iirc need an adapter
CDo you have this set in the VPForce software or in DCS?

MSent a DM!
CJust plug in do the initial setup and fly. tweaking you read about is optional.

FRead the q&a
CIs the calibration a global calibration, or do I have to recalibrate for each different plane config I’m using?
RThe calibration is global

someone already saw this and maybe tried to put it on a vprhino?
