Yeh, seems the wings on the jet are like razorblades. Only the tip hits the wing of the floatplane. Happened twice on me. :p

Very true, as now, when you guys take off, I just go at half throttle all over the country side, in the ground just to feel the FF kicking in. :rotfl:

Love this thing!

Just need to get used to this. The spring is rather loose, even with everything at max. Tho, I suspect this is due to my settings in IL2. And why the fock do the cables have to be so short!? It can just BARELY reach my PC.

Do you have the Cyborg Evo FF? How long exactly is the USB/Power cable?

:rotfl:1 Meter,
what a product flaw that is..did they expect the Case of the PC be on everyones desk?

the Logitech (force) 3D pro have a 2 meter cable.

any devices that rests on the Desk must have a 2 meter cable in my opinion.

Maybe a cheap USB hub.:hmm:

I can pick one up for about £4 GBP. Even that's got a 2m cable.

I'm sure my wireless one has slow reaction times.
Either that or I'm just crap. Don't say it.:rotfl:

FF (logitech or saitek) would be nice but I can't find anyone who stocks them close to me. I can't wait for the mail to bring it, too impatient.

Also, I was looking at your Cyborg Evo and it says it can be adapted to left handed people, that would help.

Lol, I know, it took a 4½ weeks for me to get this.

Yes, the handrest can be switched so it suits left hand. Also, all the buttons on the stick are in the center, so all you need to do is to switch the handrest to the other side.
