G940 firmware - some new fixes

[fred41]

I developed a patch to fix some old flaws of the G940 flight systems firmware (based on 1.42).

You will find detailed informations about all improvements and the patch itself here:

Are that about the infamous hysteresis issues?

[fred41]

... yes, this and some other flaws.

You find more details in my github repository (see link above) and a little bit discussion here:

I owned this Locitech G940 equipment. Forcefeedback newer worked and need exact 1.42 to update to this github made by github user "fred41". I am really angrily.

FlightGear in itself probably does not have any support for force feedback, it would probably need someone to spend at least a couple of weeks making some experimental code. I do not think I have seen properties for control forces, which would be needed to drive force feedback devices. This is probably due to that force feedback devices are relatively rare.

tl;dr: Force feedback devices are rare, FlightGear probably do not have software needed to drive them, hence few if any aircraft are set up to support force feedback devices.

Stickshaker should be nice addon for users with feedback equiped devices...
