Weta43 Posted May 5, 2006 Posted May 5, 2006 Hi - does anybody use this stick ? I want to replace my MSFFB2 & want another FF stick, anybody got any "feedback" on it? Cheers.
tflash Posted May 6, 2006 Posted May 6, 2006 Yes, I fly the stick. It is actually quite good. I only have one persistent problem: some a****e decided to include the feature "auto-calibration", i.e. the stick automatically calibrates when you use it. I tried evry driver that Saitek distributed for it, but anyway the auto-calibration sucks for me: it does NOT center the controls and in particular taking off an landing the Su-25 is very difficult because of this. I did find this complaint also on Saitek related forums, so it is not uncommon, however I have the impression for most people it got solved with the newer drivers. Not for me anyway. In F4:AF I have no problems since the software has itself a good calibration tool, that works for the Cyborg EF. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Weta43 Posted May 10, 2006 Author Posted May 10, 2006 That's a bummer 'cause the only thing wrong with my present stick is that it doesn't center properly - or at least in LO it doesn't - everything else it seems fine but when I spawn the stick is off center ( & seems to be getting more so as time goes by ), but if I trim to center it sits in the center OK. What are the bad effects of the auto-callibration, & in what direction does it go off center? Cheers.
