Modded my X52 pro - it's another stick!!

[recoilfx]

This mod is awesome - Once it's done, the x52 standard is more accurate than my MSFFB2. Check out the attached pictures. Its resolution is 11bit(2048steps) vs MSFFB2's 10bit (1024 steps).

Another tricky thing about the standard X52 (don't know about pro), the y-axis is choppy when you pull the stick.

You have to go slow - as you slowly pull, notice the values jump a lot at certain ranges.

The solution is to hold one of the throttle base buttons - for some reason, choppiness is gone when one button is held down. I've soldered the button connection so that it's always on - which means I've lost a button :-\
