Title: Yoke with control loading and autopilot follow
Post by: archen on August 19, 2012, 03:10:03 AM
Hi guys,

I've just completed my dual yoke setup with real yokes, column and crossovertube. For now I just have two gassprings for the centering but I'm looking into replacing them with an electric motor.

With an electric motor I could simulate trimming, different forces depending on flapconfiguration, speed, AoA etc. Also I would like the motor to follow the autopilot when active.

I found a card which comes with a software that handles everything.. Also it has the autopilot follow compatibility. Don't know if it works with prosim? I guess the software reads surface deflection?

Here's a link to the card: http://bffsimulation.com/BFF-FFB-System.php (http://bffsimulation.com/BFF-FFB-System.php)

Have anyone tried this? With the card mentioned above or any other way. Please share your thoughts.

Best regards,
Anders
