i fly with joytick very rarely (prefer the keybord, old habbits), but the last one lasted for something like 15 hours of use ( 25 days ). im going for a replace next week.

the problem:

note that during the video i only move both the throttle levers, check the dancing of the trim axes.

I only bought one.. and at first it worked fine.. Than I stated noticing the spikes in the trim (R1 R2?) when moving the throttles.. Next thing to go was the rudders.. They started doing the reversal spike as you moved the rudders.. Really causes the nose of the plane to yaw around badly.. It got so bad I finaly got rid of the rudders and got the new Satiek rudders..

Sad part is the joystick itself, wrt force feedback is great! but the throttles and rudders are total crap!

For a long time I was following the thread at Logi on this issue.. but.. after some months it looks like Logi has gave up on the G940.. Those who are not experancing problems should count themselfs lucky and hope that they.. like so many others.. dont have the problem show up eventually.

So if you have to have FFB joystick, and are willing to repalce the throttle and rudders, than go for it! But if you only have so much $ to spend, I would recomend you look for an old MSFFB2 joystick on ebay.
