Hi everyone.

I was wondering for those who have this G 940 setup, how do you like it? I was never a fan of Force Feed Back but I'm hearing good things about this system.

Caveat Emptor, Richie... Caveat Emptor

If you're reading good things about the G940, you're not researching enough

My 940 Trottle has several short ciruits as well.
When I move the left throttle all hell breaks loose (several other axis and even the throttle coolie hat start jumping around).

It gets my nomination for the worst product of 2010.

Definitely a shortcircuit in the said cable. We all have it or had it Return it to Logitech or follow the path shown here. I did. I am happy.

The reversal bug on all the other axes has not been fixed yet (never will?), so I disconnected some of them (Throttle, rudder, brakes) internally and feed them via a BU0836...

Nevertheless: After Logitech fixed the reversal bug on the x and y axis, the *feeling* of flying with forcefeedback is quite immersive. I am quite happy (and learned a lot about electronics and soldering).

Thank you for the linky, oj123. The fault lies with Logitech and the fault is pretty noobish if I may say so myself. The cable is too short and I cannot possibly imagine they tested and examined how the lever-movements impacts on that cable, before releasing the product to the market. When they have that flaw in every throttle quadrant out there, little does it help to just send another one back to their customers. I too shall open up my throttle quadrant in the near future.
