Force feedback problem.

[Haupt17]

Hi

When I fly multicrew in the Apache as CPG, what happens is: every time the pilot (human pilot) trims the aircraft, i feel it in my joystick.

Problem is: as CPG I use my joystick axis to operate the TEDAC camera and I don’t even have my joystick set to the aircraft controls axis in the configuration.

That way, I believe I should not be getting any feedback from pilot inputs. But then when the pilot trims, the feedback moves my joystick somewhere, forces it there (so I have to keep fighting it) and all this messes with my camera/laser inputs.

The only way I found to overcome this, was to disable my FFB. But then it also creates another problem, as with FFB turned off, the joystick comes lose without the centering force and this too creates trouble when operating the camera/laser.

I think the game should not send FFB inputs from pilot to CPG, specially not when the CPG doesn’t have its joystick axis set to aircraft controls in the configuration. 

Hope this can be fixed soon and until there, would be great if someone have any temporary solution other than CPG having to turn its joystick’s force feedback off.

Thanks in advance.

ps: I use a Sidewinder FBB 2 joystick.
