when im not running ingame, if i move the stick vigorously, i get this fault and have to power it off and on, any ideas? only on the x motor, i can move the y motor as fast and hard as i want and it works fine. Also in the X axis I sometimes feel a "slipping" sensation when the stick is under pressure, like the motor is giving in the direction of the hold but the GUI stick position shows the same. Every effect is turned off except for adaptive recentering and a force trim keybind in telemFFB

50% spring
35% damper

Yeah surly your settings => look and post a screen of complete settings tab (expend the right part). I had this problem and it's was a settings to adjust. I link Walmis answer => 🧰support

Bug?: VPC V.F.X. DLC up/down buttons. Periodically when I start VPForce FFB the DLC up/down buttons on my V.F.X. are not recognized, e.g. they do not initialize and are not recognized by OS. I have to stop/restart VPForce FFB Configurator (sometimes multiple times) for the buttons to be eventually recognized. Stoping and restarting VPForce FFB Configurator seems to always fix the issue, but anoying that I have to do a pre-flight on the controller in VPForce FFB Configurator before jumping into a SIM.

Ffrumpy By "removing the top wall" you mean removing 30 screws? I did it, but what now? ...

I recently had some play in my pitch similar to yours. I had to tighten these scres

C4N4DN•1/18/25, 11:54 PM

Screws

C4N4DN•1/18/25, 11:56 PM

I was able to tighten them without disassembling the gimbal. I just went at it with a screwdriver.

I have build my own FFB rhino with designs i found on web. The design i used had Bolts and Nuts. After a 1.5 year of use every screw was almost loose!!! I disassembled it all and started again from the beginning,Now i will print another design which has threaded inserts and i am going to use LOCTITE glue for threads.

my trim in game is working like it should but my stick is moving back physically when i trim nose down and when i trim nose up my stick is moving foward?

TeufelHunden•1/19/25, 10:03 AM

seems to be opposite of what i want i have turn base around and click invert so that works but trim seems backwards for the stick movement?

Hi guys, I have finished connecting my meanwell 350w 24v to power my vpforce rhino, for the first start-up do I need to install special software to be able to try it? what exactly should I do? because I don't know enough about this part.

You must install VPFORCE configurator. For the effects in game, you must install TelemFFB.

To sum up:

You configure your Rhino via the configurator. Calibration first, then basic effects (spring, damper, friction...). Check the manual for details.
Then you can run telemffb for in-game effects. It's all very personal, but a word of advice: don't use too many effects to start with. Then adjust according to your needs and preferences.

thank you very much for all this information

Hey guys, my bottom mounting plate in my rhino is broken, and I need to print a new one. I found one online that looked the same and it didn’t fit by some slight dimensions. Can anyone lead me to the correct model?

exil35•1/19/25, 5:08 PM

Hey guys, looking for some help here. I've build my own Rhino pedals. Without the motor, the pedals are moving very lightweight.
With the motor attached but still off, there is a bit of resistance, but still okay.
Once i power on the motor, i need a lot of force to actually move the pedals.
In the VP Configurator everything (springs, dampening, etc.) is turned off. The motor is online, USB is connected and i can calibrate the axis.
But i still have this high force requirement to actually move the pedals. As a sidenote, tuning the spring slider and such doesn't do anything.
What am i doing wrong?

Chris•1/19/25, 5:26 PM

Control board is the one from Walmis? Maybe some break force is misscalibrated?

Yes, the board is the original VPForce board.

Play with the natural dampening compensation value. Increase it and it should relieve the dampening you are feeling. If you increase it too far it will act like it is amplifying your inputs. You’ll find a value that makes it feel pretty free floating.

exil35•1/19/25, 5:43 PM

Thanks. I already tried that as well with no effect. It's like all the settings i do in VPForce Configurator are dead somehow. Although, it's recognizing the postion.

smitty•1/19/25, 5:46 PM

configurator screenshot? my first guess also was natural damping

Here you go! And thanks for the help!

smitty•1/19/25, 5:57 PM

wow you really have nothing turned on

smitty•1/19/25, 5:57 PM

i see a little bit of identifier "joystick" in the bottom

smitty•1/19/25, 5:58 PM

have right device selected?

exil35•1/19/25, 5:59 PM

Yeah, it's named joystick. But i didn't connect the Rhino base (stick) for testing purposes.

smitty•1/19/25, 6:01 PM

maybe with master & spring at 0, natural damping can't do its thing. put those sliders to 100 save & store

smitty•1/19/25, 6:03 PM

is this a 57 or 86 motor

exil35•1/19/25, 6:03 PM

Yeah, already tried that. Sadly without any effect.
It's a 86.

smitty•1/19/25, 6:04 PM

and you said with belt removed its mechanically happy?

exil35•1/19/25, 6:04 PM

Stangely it doesn't have a device firmware. Don't know if that's okay...(i changed the name to "pedals" by the way)

smitty•1/19/25, 6:05 PM

hmm that might do it

Ssmitty and you said with belt removed its mechanically happy?

exil35•1/19/25, 6:05 PM

Yeah, without the belt they are moving freely.

smitty•1/19/25, 6:05 PM

i'd try to get that FW set before doing anything else

exil35•1/19/25, 6:06 PM

But i can't update the firmware somehow. But i remeber that i did that previously.

exil35•1/19/25, 6:07 PM

Nevermind...was the browser. With edge, it detects the FW.

smitty•1/19/25, 6:07 PM

ah ok good

exil35•1/19/25, 6:08 PM

NOW it's working!

smitty•1/19/25, 6:08 PM

try also turning on a low spring in effects

smitty•1/19/25, 6:08 PM

lol what changed

exil35•1/19/25, 6:09 PM

Don't know what happened. After i connected with EDGE browser, it's fine. But natural spring dampening works now.

smitty•1/19/25, 6:10 PM

nice! btw here are my pedal settings (my cable setup didnt need any natural damping so ignore that)

exil35•1/19/25, 6:14 PM

I been having the same issue for an month and half , also unable to find solution. In my case is similar to yours, only the X axis. Whenever multiple forces or effect are apply (per example an stall) the X axis fails totally , leaving me only the Y axis enable . Once reset by turning it on and off quickly it then goes fully hard to the left , like if the motor is applying full force to the left side. If you find an solution , pls let me know .

No motors fail in game, the stick is butter smooth except this feeling that it’s slipping under tension every now and then, which it isn’t as I’ve checked. However out of the game, with just the config loaded up, I have this issue when I move the stick vigorously. Not entirely sure what causes it but I’d like to fix the slip feeling more than this issue as this doesn’t affect me in game. Unless the issue are linked, maybe a duff motor or board or something ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
