Title: G940 Reversal Bug Firmware Update
Post by: Tigger29 on December 22, 2010, 03:16:23 PM
As promised, Logitech just released a new Firmware update for the G940.  This firmware reduces the "reversal bug" on the stick X and Y axes from about 1.1% to about 0.3%.

As for the other axes, well it's a work in progress but at least they're working on it.

You can read about it (and download the firmware) from Logitech's Forums HERE (http://forums.logitech.com/t5/PC-Gaming/G940-firmware-1-42-is-now-available/td-p/542496)

That's a step in the right direction. I assume the trim forces are still porked to make the stick "tighter" since they have never mentioned this issue or responded to questions about it.

Basically the G940 is still a "work in progress"?

ACK, for the first.. I dunno... 14 months since it's release.. it was a work NOT in progress.  This is the first attempt they've made to make the stick 'decent' in all of that time.  While it's a great improvement, I'm afraid it'll take another 14 months before they address the other issues with the programming.

FLS, I'm not quite sure what you're talking about there.. ok I gotcha.. since they released a firmware update awhile back the forcing seems a bit strong and less accurate.  (I was thinking you were talking about the trim knobs).  Yeah I agree, but I've learned to love the 'stiffer' feel of the stick.

Just downloaded the firmware update, and and tried it out. My 940 seems more stable and without the pesky bounce.  Thanks for posting the release.   :aok
