Couldn't agree more & I'd be first in line for a conversion kit for my long suffering FFB stick...but thinking about this further ,the various companies who design & build joysticks don't work in a vacuum-they must see the interest for a period looking joystick or two?They like us can see BoBSoW slowly coming down the track & must know all of us will be buying all new stuff to make it work,perhaps including a new stick & or controls ? I'd like to think they are already at the drawing boards...Well one can dream ....
