Possibly useful DIY (FFB) stick guide

I stumbled across this useful site whilst searching for something else today and thought it might be of use to somebody who's looking to build a flight stick, with or without FFB.

Maybe even FFB rudder pedals

Is FF for rudder pedals even modeled in DCS or other sims? I might try that, since i didn't make any centering spring mechanism for my DIY pedals.

FFB only works with one device at a time apparently, and I don't think it exists beyond the spring force on the rudder axis anyway. You should consider adding a spring with some hydraulic dampers.
