Hello!
just bought this stick, but I found a problem:
with my beloved old MS FFBpro I set up the centering force to 0 and I had a really realistic feeling with the stick: as soon as speed increased the stick force became stronger.
With this FFB2 am unable to set the centering force to 0, to have the same effect: I created a profile, but it seems to not work in AH. The centering force is always at maximum and the force you have to apply even when you are close to stall speed is almost the same as when you are at high speed: this is due to the centering force IMHO
Can someone give me suggestions?

Thanx

Lucchini

I had a few problems when I went from my MSFF to MSFF2 USB. I ended up not loading any profile, setting both my centering force and forces level to medium under control panel\gaming options (the one setting does affect the other). I've found in my case, any changes in the AH portion of forces requires me to exit AH, open up the stick under control panel, test forces, then restart AH. Try experimenting with the two settings under control panel\gaming options for your personal preference.

it's possible the effects you are seeing are due to having the trimfeedback effects set... i noticed when i did that, i really had to fight the stick. try turning down/off the forces on trim. i only have stall and buffets enbaled on my stick, and do not use the SW profiling software at all.

on the other hand, i can't seem to get buttons 7 and 8 to be recognized by the game, selecting joystcik shows it as the basic ms FF stick, not the FFB2, which is almost exactly like the prec pro in terms of buttons.
