I disable the force feedback feature in MS
Flight Sim (I don't have the 2004 version though, still using the 2002
version but I reckon it makes no difference); I find the feature more
annoying than anything else (in real life you do have to take your
hand off the controls one in a while to deal with charts and stuff, but
you can't with the FF thingy switched on as the stick goes wild);

but then again, I might be missing something (better set up of the
control in the flight sim? any suggestion?)

I'm using the MS Sidewinder FF2 joystick with FS2004, default FF settings,
and there's no problem with letting go of the controls. I'm not sure why
yours differs, but that's not how it should be.
