Pedals. The Sidewinder has been the best stick I have ever used and gives

the most "feel" to the glider. They haven't been made in almost 10 years,

but are pretty cheap on Ebay.

Daniel,

What does Force Feeback mean? Does it have little motors inside the

stick?

Is this feature supported by Condor?

Yes and yes. Force feedback tries to make the stick respond to stick forces in the plane. It is usually pretty good, however I have not found it to really make a huge difference. I prefer the Saitek X-52 Pro because it is very smooth and has a good bit more stick travel (Vs. the Logitech joystick) which makes it feel more precise to me. Try some out and find what you think feels right and remember to join us on US Nightly Soaring every day (except Monday) at 9PM eastern. http://gliderracing.com/pub/
