Mixed value pots

After years of putting up with a cruddy connection on my TSW, I went and
rewired the pedal set to dual axis, using the guts from a Thrustmaster
T2.  The difference is phenomenal.

My question is, what would happen with different values for the two pots
on the brake and throttle?  I like the feel of the T2 pot on the
throttle -- for some odd reason I get much more high end, but I'd like
to go back to the TSW pot for the brake.  Would that cause any problems?

As long as you use them "Split Axis" there's no problem at all.  Then again,
if they are combined and give different values, your centering will be way
off.  It'll think one pedal is depressed all the time.
