I'm currently using a Realsimualtor adapter for my Cougar, however I keep switching back to the Warthog for the simple reason its smoother.
No matter what I try i cannot make the cougar smooth, it always wants to jump, which is really annoying when flying formation or air to air refueling.
I'd like to update my Cougar I just don't have the time nor will power to bring myself to do it because of this "sticky" action.
I have noticed that Winwing are currently in development of a F-16 throttle, looking at the review of the F-18 throttle they made its sounding good (avoiding the stick tho).
