MS FF stick
« on: February 11, 2000, 09:17:00 AM »
After having many problems w/this stick (doing all of the cal. steps many times) I gave up on it. Nothing more frustrating than getting the old "Don't move the stick so rapidly" right in the middle of a furball.  I purchased a Logictech stick w/the handle-rudder.  I was only online with it for an hour last nite but had no problems at all.

Good for you Milo!  I cannot stress more what a good pair of rudders (foot rudders) will do for a person in a game such as this.  I flew WB's for 2 years with no rudders, when I got them, my K/D ratio went from 2/1 to 4/1.  I'm telling ya, they're worth their weight in Gold!

I have the MS FF Pro and I to frequently get the "Don't move your controls so rapidly".

I'm close to giving up on it too.
