![]() build the force effect using hydraulic pressure forces when relevant.build the force effect using control surface forces (already computed internally for the flight model).use the force effect (per this API) to reflect the simulated forces on the stick. ![]() use the Microsoft API which is meant to controlling forces.This short list is already adding a lot of realism and requires very little things to be a reality: feel the vibrations induced by airframe to the stick.see the yoke moving due to the autopilot servos.feel the force needed to disconnect the autopilot.feel the autopilot servos locking control stick down.feel the hydraulic failure with stronger forces to actuations.feel the spring loaded forces on FBW control systems.feel the hydraulic dampening forces on bigger airplanes.feel when there is a stuck or broken control line between stick and control surface.feel the aerodynamic forces on smaller airplanes (and the lack of forces due to lack of air flow).+1 I agree, when properly implemented it does: But I’d like to be able to do it myself, without having to rely on the autopilot to do it for me, and as things exist right now, it’s just a guessing game, combined with a dash of luck that lets you get it done. I usually rely on the autopilot to do it for me, but that’s not “cheating” because that’s how a real life autopilot works. That’s how you know when you are properly trimmed in the first place, and the lack of that is why it’s so difficult to get an airplane, especially a GA one, properly trimmed in the first place. I want it, I want it yesterday, and it’s an absolute must that it includes being able to feel the trim force going away, just as you do in a real airplane. You don’t really have a choice at some point.Īs for force feedback in general, all I can do is reiterate what I already said. ![]() And I have no problem with replacing old, broken equipment. Sometimes fixable, sometimes not, but they won’t last forever. If for no other reason, eventually old stuff, especially 20 year old electronic parts, break. Who cares how old the hardware is? Age has nothing to do with it!
