Although I have not mapped the wheel's axis to any flight control, the newly enabled FF effects cause the wheel to vibrate with aircraft 'flutter' at near-stall speeds and over-speed, and in reaction to gun recoil, and feels quite realistic. I am not sure why it does this, but it definitely adds to the realism without adversely affecting flight control. The 109's cannon causes the entire frame to shake, while approaching a stall I feel a gentle shudder warning of impending loss of control, all the while my stick remains unaffected. The best of both worlds, maybe?
The ffb file for canon is autocannon, so you can edit it separately
