Hello Screaming Demons,
For flight sims I use a Microsoft Precision Pro Joystick (I'm not really crazy about it but hang with me) and because its a digital only controller it is way too sensitive for some sims including SDOE (works good with EAW). I have the sensitivity turned to lowest setting from SDOE Control 1.3 and also turned down from joysticks Profiler but am wondering if I can go even lower from the INI. file (or if Control 1.3 adjusts to the lowest available setting). SDOE flys good with my analog Thrustmaster FCS but it has no throttle or rudder. Also, Bombers and other heavies fly good with a digital stick because of the way the FM's are set up to simulate weight and moments, I'm thinking of altering some of the fighters FM's to fly better with a sensitive stick. Any thoughts? Thanks

Go here and download the CTFJ utility for adjusting the sensitivity on your joystick. Most of us MS Precision Pro owners have the same problem.

I just wish there was some way to increase the tension in the MSSPP stick. I like it but it is way to easy to move.
