FlyPT Mover

OK, I was making some corrections in Dirt Rally 2...
Can't understand the data they sent out.
Below image is the longitudinal acceleration they output from the game.
Arrow points the instant I collided with the building (the car is perpendicular, but it was a front collision):

That's strange, acceleration is positive, just like accelerations before (oscillations where due to gear change).

If I calculate the longitudinal acceleration from elapsed time and velocities, I get this:

.... Can't understand.

Am I missing something here.
The calculated one seems logical.
What are they giving on the longitudinal and lateral accelerations?
Is that helmet accelerations? I think so, that's the only logic to have acceleration that way.

Or they messed the calculations... I doubt.
Next release will come only with calculated accelerations (I have to make it to get the vertical ones).
I had to correct some directions.

I see people talking of problems on the SimTools plugin. Might have to do with time calculation.
On crash, it seems they reset the timer, so we have to check for currentTime<>previousTime instead of currentTime>previousTime.
If the counter resets, it's going to lock calculations of accelerations...

Although checkbox “stay on last possible pose” is check, after hitting a limit on one actuator, the other actuators are still able to move.

Is it normal ?

No...
Missed something there.
I will take a look.

By the way, I tested some filters on the source (with Dirt2), it's easy to implement the filter on XPlane.
Next release is going to include your request.

Oh that’s good news.

I think the filtering conditions has to be
If
left brake OR right brake OR both

And this only below a certain ground speed

If the speed could be user setable separately for both longitudinal and side acceleration (this with gravity)

... it would be a gem.
Could you imagine a selection drop menu for that in your plugin window ?

Of course it would concern only the “ground” related

Best

Is there any option to auto-connect to the serial interface ?

Best

Hi,

Curiously, I can’t get the vibrations on the platform.

I see them functioning but changing values even to the extreme ones doesn’t make them go through.

Am I missing something?

In rig module, you have to select wich poses you want to use.
Are you sure you checked Pose from rpm/motor?

Excellent, it works!

We could maybe imagine similar window for stall with setable start and end frequency;-)

I can’t see the images about the spike removal in the post.

Btw. You could maybe output the motor torque as is for testing and vertical gear load divided by actual weight

For ground:

Landing gear weight is case 137 data 0 —- division—-
Current weight is case 63 data 4

For air:

Warning stall for rumble is case 127 data 6

For ground and air:
Engine torque is case 36 data 0

Good.
Might be possible to improve it.
The sin wave frequency depends on the number of cylinders. That generates a rotational and translation vibration.
The directions depend on the type of motor.
Amplitude is higher at low rpm, and smooths at the vibration we select.

All this is affected by the capabilities of the hardware and speed of communication.
Using just one cylinder might be more than enough...

For stall, I'm thinking of making something similar, but removing the types of motor and so on...
We could select any type of variable to use and generate vibration.

It was a post I was preparing...
It was not ready. Sorry.
It's now more advanced.
Did you read it?
I'm adding the filter I made to the advanced filter so we can use it everywhere. And we can also use other filters in XPlane besides that one.
It's a spike removal filter.

Torque is already included:

See last value...

Can I test it already. Did you update the download link ?

No yet.
Still some small changes to do.

Also added auto connect to the outputs.
Wanted to verify the out of range also. Must be something simple.

Your rpm code is extremely efficient. Phyphox is recording at its max real rate 40hz. It is probably even more than that.

I wasn’t aware my servos with internal smoothing ramp of 40ms were capable to provide such details.

And this with “high precision” unchecked and the calculation rate of 2.5. The processor load being at 0.1

Very impressive

It was a pain to make the threads work as intended...
Started correcting, but it was such a mess that I decided to go module by module and rewrite/copy/paste the code.

Did you tried the PhyPhox source?

It has really worth the hassle

I’ll try it now. Ill just wait the “last pose” works, otherwise....

Do we need to create a special “experience” in phyphox?

Yes,

Add:
-Accelerometer
-Gyroscope
-Linear acceleration

This is what I get on my phone.

And using home network, is faster. Although it works remotely.

EDIT: We could ask @Dirty, to use the phone in a flight and we would feel it in the rigs...

But I don't think it works good enough. But please try.
