I don't know how that compares to the Saitek Aviator which is what I

stiffer ones to make it a bit more realistic.


Ah yes......but at what airspeed? (slugs dynamic pressure vs unboosted
control surfaces :-))


Ooh. Good point. I wonder if a series of small electric motors could
be used to spool up bungee tension corresponding to appropriate
pressures. Not sure how the big sims do it.
