Has the G940 reversal bug been fixed yet? If not, best 'new' stick out there?
 
I have read a lot about the 'bug' and see that there is new firmware.

I currently use a Fully Modded Thrustmaster Cougar (hall sensors and gimbals), but want to get a second stick for my Son's PC. I can't afford another modded Cougar and the 940 certainly interests me, but I hear that the 'reversal' bug is a nightmare?

If that is the case, I am looking at either the X65 or Warthog, but I do like the look and features of the 940 first.

Appreciate thoughts?

Cheers, MP

Hi Mysticpuma,

If you're not prepared to mod the G940 (and loose the warranty) stay away from it:

- The "Spikes" issue on R1 and R2 (search the Logitech board) is still there and Logitech busy replacing G940s
- The ReversalBug has not been solved on any axis but the stick's x and y (hall sensored) and makes flying and aiming a pain

These are the bugs I've experienced myself - there are more reported by others (which I did not experience):
- Problems with the pedals
- ForceFeedback disappearing temporarily due to overheat

My personal opinion: Could have been great, Logitech missed the chance, modded I can live with it.
