I remember when I had to make the transition to pedals, first few weeks were pretty awkward.  One of the things that helped me make the transition (and something I still do) is that I didn't rest my whole foot on the pedal.  Instead I would rest my heel on the base of the pedals and just control the pedals with the ball of my foot and toes.  I found it made making minor adjustments a lot easier.

I'll try that.  Obviously it's affecting my already lousy gunnery, but even plain ole combat, I'm trying to do things with the stik, that I must now do in conjunction with the pedals...

The Fighterstick in itself is an adjustment after nothing but X-52's in my hands the last 4 years or more.  The precision in amazing, but the feel is horrible to me still.  I had to tell folks the other night, 'No, my dog is not flying my plane tonight'.

The CH quality is great.  And it's given me a new set of challenges in the game.  It is tough right now though.
