Being big into sim racing and flight sims I always wondered why force feedback sticks weren’t more of a thing when no one would dream of having a wheel without feedback, obviously its easier to fly than to drive without it but seeing setups worth thousands of pounds without any feeling through the stick seems crazy
@ChristinanathanWesterfie-pr4jj5 ай бұрын
As opposed to a single peripheral (wheels usually bundled w/ pedals) a flight simulator "build" or parts list consists of A. Flight control stick, B. Usually a separate throttle investment, C. Followed by a good rudder pedal (toe brakes cost extra) D. Then the simulator E. and that dictates the performance of the pc. Take all that into consideration and calculate the avg life-span of your vehicles starter motor as opposed to window or wiper motor (you replace the starter more often is the point) and figure your FFB stick motor(s) may

@barnstormingbandit26115 ай бұрын
You keep the stick back at the start of the roll as there is generally insufficient aerodynamic forces generated by the rudder to maintain directional control, thus on the mustang it has a tailwheel lock that is active with the stick aft, then as the speed builds you centre the stick and that allows a few degrees of tail wheel movement, though at this point unless extremely heavy you can then go stick forward to get the tail up and level. In some aircraft there is a deadzone where there isn't enough airflow over the rudder to stop yaw but where there is also blanking from the elevator blocking said airflow to the rudder.@@CommandT

@rpurdey5 ай бұрын
Very nice, however, very late P-51D-5s and later (earlier Mustangs that had fuselage fuel tank were retrofitted) had a twenty pound bob weight installed on the elevator mid fuselage bell-crank. This maintained a steady pull forward on the stick at all times the aircraft was level so if you had the stick in neutral or aft position while on the ground with engine off it would "fall" forward to the stop if you let go. This mod was done to counter the unstable aft CG condition when operating at gross weight with the fuselage fuel tank full. In this condition as the aircraft exceeded ~2 positive G the stick would progressively push back harder trying to increase the G load. I have heard that some current operators have reduced the bob weight to ~10 lbs.

Is this stick similarly limited temperature wise etc? ive been an FFB convert since buying an old sidewinder years ago.

Microsoft was sued by Immersion btw because they stated the Sidewinder was a "Tactile feedback man-machine interface device", since they had already the patent at the time, it ended up Microsoft settling out and buying 10% of Immersion shares... The company sued also Sony for the Dualshock controller for the same reason, but they didn't want to settle and Immersion won, getting paid 82million dollars Since some years the patent has expired and finally anyone can make one, who knows maybe even Microsoft will come back at it

I think the concept is misunderstood. The point is not that it has feedback like driving a car with manual steering. It’s the fact that every plane has unique loading on the flight controls, irrespective of whether there is or is no feedback. And that’s what a force feedback stick gets you.

If only the other DCS warbirds had as good FFB implementations as the TF/P-51D does. It's the best by far and they seem to ignore it (at least to the point of not implementing it very well) on the newer ones. (I haven't been flying with my Logitech FFB for some time so perhaps that's changed, but I doubt it.) Don't expect this in the jets. Any aircraft with hydraulically boosted controls won't let you feel the airspeed like this. And modern FBW jets even more so, as they're making trim changes for you. (Though FBW planes like the Hornet are designed to require greater stick movement, and thus greater stick spring forces to work against, as the G load increases.) Speaking of trim changes, you made none in this video. You should have shown us you making major trim changes and the stick physically re-centering all by itself without your hand on it. (You can fly with trim only as long as you don't get too crazy.) In the helicopters it was absolutely amazing. Turn off Force Trim and the stick is just floppy (which is a way a lot of real chopper pilots prefer to fly the Huey). And when you enable Force Trim (like with the cockpit switch in the Huey, I don't mean in the Options), and pick a new trim position, the stick just wants to stay at that new "center" and none of the fake nonsense we have to do with quickly recentering the stick after making a Force Trim change happens. With a FFB stick it works just as it does in reality. No need to rely on that fake "Trim Reset" function to get out of trouble if your trim gets out of whack because it's always obvious where your trim is set, just by feel. You should also get a lot more difficult to move stick in the Huey if you disable the hydraulics, though with my FFB stick out of action I can't confirm that right now. Though there's still no meaningful flight forces communicated through the stick in helicopters. So, again, not nearly as informative when flying as what you'll get in the warbirds. Unfortunately I found many DCS modules didn't "play well" with my Logitech FFB. It made me wish we had force biasing controls in the Options. Many of the aircraft, including the TF/P-51, would not trim normally for me with my Logitech, with dramatically different trim wheel positions for the same flight regimes with or without FFB. It wasn't a big deal in the P-51 but in planes like the F-5 it was so bad that I could no longer dial in enough "up" trim to keep it level when heavy with drop tanks and weapons. I'd have to pull back on the stick through my entire flight until I got light enough that I could compensate for running out of trim range. And I wasn't able to use it at all in the Su-27 (etc) as it just threw the trim off too far. I assume you don't experience that with this stick? Could have just been my particular stick, I guess, but again, it would be nice if we had option settings to tweak and calibrate FFB in the sim. Oh and you were flying and operating it fine (other than never touching the trim wheels) except your MP was a bit high for continuous (but within limits for short usage). The engine limits are written on the placard on your right elbow cockpit wall. 46 MP/2700 RPM is what you want for continuous in the Mustang. And unless you're damaged or doing something odd, you don't need to mess with radiator flaps, etc. It's all automatic and works fine. (And all those flap positions are a feature. You can use the first one in combat at any speed. The successive flap settings can act like speed brakes to help you get slowed down to landing and full-flap speed quicker than you could without them.)

It may not have the same Nm force but the reviews are positive and about 30-50 are being made each month. They also have kits you can build yourself with stronger components. It's really cool to see so many FFB devices hitting the market now.

That's obvious. What escapes most, however, is that FFB pedals are about as important for piston stuff.

Honestly sounds like it would be great for beginners and those who are not naturals... But honestly my Retro fighter Gamecube gamepad is great and I would almost never use a stick like this like I don't use my belove saitex X52... Not to mention it's nearly $1k USD which is alot for something I won't use all that much.

I just got my first FFB joystick a Logitech wingman 3D pro from over ten years ago... And man is it awesome how it just melts and blend the sim into my hand... But yeah DCS MSFS and yes even War thunder need higher inputs even for the wingman and it was fussy to set up buut no more then any old joystick... But yeah I get FFB in a joystick now and honestly makes using a joystick worth it over pad for me.

Came here to ask this. Or more like how does it feel to fly a fly by wire aircraft in real life, does it return to the center automatically? If it's all electronics, does it have some form of force feedback built in as well?

When the elevator does not have air flow the stick should fall forward and this is not well simulated from what I saw in the video, it stays in the central position.

There’s propwash so it displaces somewhat back towards the centre but not fully.

Most WWII fighters had counterweights to keep the flight surfaces balanced. Can't tell you if the Mustang did, but the Spitfire and BF109 did, for instance, so it seems likely the Mustang would too. The joystick wouldn't flop forward in that case.
@martinalvarez8275 ай бұрын
@@ShaydeNZ All the airplanes I flew did not have any counterweight to balance the elevator. In general, the compensation is done in an aerodynamic way with a small surface of the elevator that is on the opposite side to the rest.

Mira este video kzbin.info/www/bejne/gGKpkIiAlsaDZ6M podras ver que el palo esta caido hacia adelante a pesar de que el motor esta en bajas revoluciones y no tiene ningun contrapeso que lo mantenga centrado.

@@CommandT the mic capsule itself might be saturating before the audio even gets passed on to your recorder, or it could be several other things - but having the mic further away from your mouth is probably a great first step with troubleshooting :)
