I liked the original implementation where the stick wouldn't center at low speeds, and the center of the stick would move depending on where the trims were at.

After it was changed I got a CH setup, so I'm not using ff anymore.

FF is a great addition if done well.  Problem is that no good HOTAS has FF, and so its a choice, FF or a good setup....pretty easy to decide from there

Ive been using the old MS FFB1 for years now, solid stick did fine for the last few years. I was gonna go to MS FFB2 but they got rid of the "SHIFT" button the idiots. Ive been looking into the HOTAS thingy, but I cant see it helping me much. The stick I have is just fine, I have absolutly no complaints.

Had a force feedback stick, didn't like it, got rid of it, got a NON FF Logitech Wingman Extreme, best stick ever for me.

I love my FF stick in AH -- feeling it start to go floppy is my first indication that I'm goin' waaaay to slow.
