if someone still doubts how an f 16 side stick works:
to move it 1 mm you apply 1 kg
to move it 2 mm you apply 2 kg
to move it 3 mm, maximum range you apply 3 kg
had anybody heard before of those force controls joystick before? sounds pretty interesting and just what i had found out best |
As always, total and complete crap!
This is just like when you claimed that the gunship targeting systems tracked the gunners eye and not his helmet.
EVERYONE has heard of force sticks. They have been around for 20+ years!!!!! You could not be more ignorant if you tried. And I mean that LITERALLY. The fact that the F-16 was the first aircraft to use a force stick and that it's original zero travel was modified to a very small dead zone is so well known that the level of stupidity required to question it and/or fail to understand it is just staggering. And by staggering I mean that no human technology will ever be able to measure such a level.
All it takes to make a force stick is a wheatstone bridge and 2 strain gauges. Leo Bodnar even has wheatstone bridge circuits you can use to build your own force stick. I built one for IL-2 10 years ago but my home made circuitry had too much noise in it. Bodnar's is very nice. Coincidentally I sourced tiny strain gauges just a couple of weeks ago b/c I've been thinking of giving it another shot with Bodnar's circuits.
Strain gauges are a dime a dozen from
www.omega.com and Bodnar's boards are known throughout the sim world.
The fact that you haven't come across one of those 2 sites just proves that you have no interest in learning anything nor of giving the rest of the world the benefit of your, "knowledge".
It simply proves that, AS YOU HAVE POSTED BEFORE, the reason you post on this forum is so that you can reread your asinine ranting later.
