Count me in. If it's an FFB stick you can basically take my money now. This is the kind of setup I've wanted for years. Will be following this one closely.

This looks absolutely fantastic, well done!

Somebody get on the phone to Clint Eastwood, he's got a plane to steal...:D

Very nice work on these skins, thanks.:thumbup:

Fixed it! I tried changing the settings in the contactor.cfg but to no avail. Also tried that RTC file but still no centering force what-so-ever. I was starting to get a little agitated so sat back and thought about anything I'd done recently that could have messed my stick settings up. Then I remembered a couple of days ago I gave my pc and desk area a good clean and had unplugged everything in the process. When connecting everything up again I'd somehow swapped usb ports for my stick and CH throttle. Swapped them round again and BINGO! This obviously affects some games more than others, seeing as all was normal in other games. Thank you Cosmonaut for your help. That RTC file is very useful and I have been experimenting with it to find the ideal set-up for each aircraft. BTW, I disabled force feedback for the same reasons you did as I use my hat for trim. I bought this stick originally to use with IL2 but like it so much I use it in all my sims. Shame the feedback can't be better tweaked in Lockon though.

Thanks but I've purposely set this to false as I don't want the force effects enabled. I've been flying with centering force only with no problems up until now. I've heard that some MSFFB2 users have no centering at all but it's worked fine for me so I'm really puzzled as to how this has changed. I can't think of any mods I've installed which would cause this either.:(

I have suddenly lost the centering force in my MSFFB2 stick and have no idea how this has happened. I haven't changed anything in the config or my sidewinder profiles but when I started Lockon today my stick was limp (yes, I know how that sounds:D). I've tried my other games such as FS9 and IL2 and the stick functions perfectly. I know having feedback enabled causes problems so I have only been using the centering force which has worked fine until now. If anyone using this stick could give me tips on how to fix this I would be most grateful.

Flankers...

Some more...

Some nice MiG shots...

This is an amazing project! I've really enjoyed reading through this thread and can't wait to see the finished product. Outstanding.:thumbup:

I just assumed they use Track IR...:D

Maybe it's not an issue as such then, only I feel that trimming the aircraft is not as intuitive as I imagined it to be. I also use the hat switch to trim and manage to get by ok. I fly the Russian jets almost exclusively and if this is how they are meant to fly then that's fine. Incidentally, I've noticed that the Russian aircraft have 'ТРИМ' marked on top of the stick, right above where the hat switch is located on most gaming sticks. Is this how the actual aircraft are trimmed then?

Does anyone know if the trim issue will be resolved with the release of Blackshark?

Just wanted to say how superb this new model is looking. I've just re-installed Lockon FC after a long break and have found the default model is looking a little dated now. Actually, this must be my first post despite lurking around these forums for a little while now. :D
