I would like to know if it's possible to cut the really bad peddals from
the saitek force wheel, using the Trustmaster formula ones.
In gpl the old unit peddals where almost perfects, with a long range, while
the force feedback unit has a really ridicolous range, making my laptimes
very bad...
I've searched everywhere, but nothing.
I've seen modified Logitech, Act-Labs and Microsoft, but no Saitek.
Thanx in advance for your help

I did it with my MSFF pedals and LWFF wheel by simply taking the wires off
the pots in the LWFF pedal box and putting them on the MSFF ones. I think
that should work in your case too - try it, you can always reverse the
process.

I already tried, but nothing.
I think the problem is that the Saitek unit is digital, while the
Thrustmaster
is analog.
Is there any way, interface, trick or software patch to get it working?
Thanx again
