Youtch Posted February 20 Posted February 20 Dear community, This is a question related to force feedback. In its current implementation, F16 module is sending FFB information to configure 100% spring force for X axis and 50% spring force for Y axis. I know that in real life, the stick does not provide any feedback (apart from small vibrations at high Gs), and it is a force sensitive stick travelling only a few mm, hence it is very hard to try replicate this with a FFB stick. But, my understanding is that IRL there is no real difference in sensitivity between X and Y axis on the side stick. Is my understanding correct or am I missing something? What is the rationale behind this decision of differentiating so much X and Y axis coming from? Is it due to ergonomics of the position of the stick on the side instead of centered, where movements in Y directions might be more difficult to do than movements in X directions, due to the anatomy of the wrist? Many thanks in advance, y.
VarZat Posted February 20 Posted February 20 If i remember correctly, IRL uses something like 25lb pressure for full defliction stick back and 15lb roll (33% less to the right) 1 1

If this is correct, I understand that to replicate this with FFB, it would imply less spring strength for roll than for pitch, which i understand that is the opposite of what is currently implemented, where roll requires double strength than pitch If I understand correctly, are you suggesting also that left roll and right roll differs in the pressure to go full deflection? Any reason for it, or it is just to fit the ergonomics of the wrist?
