Which joystick do you use?

[Buchon]

in my opinion pressure control sticks are appropriate for modern era sims, which are full of modern jets that are using this system in real life, but they are not for a WWII sim.

I have a X52 witch is good for online competitive combat, fast and accurate response.

But having that I did purchased a G940 jut for one reason = Force Feedback

With my X52 I have a fast and accurate experience but with G940 I have a accurate and realistic experience.

Once you taste a good force feedback configuration there no way back, nothing can be compared with feel the wind pass through the wings of your plane, feel the strength of the plane in a turn or twisted in a loop, feel the turbulences going through the clouds.

I think that a force feedback joystick is the best option for a realistic and accurate in WWII simulator experience.

I have the g940 too, have you had any of the spiking issues, I mentioned my slight rudder spike, I did find a dirty fix, just unplug the rudders from the unit and plug it back in, and it stopped my spiking for at the whole day.

Saitek throttle quadrant ( <-- great idea,poor quality parts)

I fixed the spiking problems my self.

They are caused by a wire that lose his position in the throttle controller, causing problems in a board connector due his movement.

It was in a tutorial on the web about this with pictures but cant remember now ...

so far I havent any problems with the throttles, i have been trying to research if it is viable to replace all pots with hall sensors.....

I have a horrible squeaky st290 pro which has some issues and I should be having a Saitek x65 F turning up tomorrow. Was going to get the Warthog but couldn't bring myself to buy that AND a set of pedals.

Will be interesting to see how the force-sensing business works out on a WW2 sim

Found it, here is http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.ph...3007420/4.html

the loose wire disturb the board connector causing weird effects like spiking in rudder and throttle.

is easy to fix, just attach well the wire, avoiding disturb the connector when you move the throttle.

I tried to find a alternative to the really expensive hall sensors for my hotas cougar. I think the pots in the cougar are very very cheap. I only need a bit less cheaper pots like this one.http://www.conrad.biz/ce/de/product/...ref=list..but: they have to be compatible..
