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? -- Bob Curtin Worcester Area Strategy & Tactics Exchange http://www.tiac.net/users/ten10ths/ "If God had intended men to join the Army he would have given us green, baggy skin"

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.
