Does that mean that you lost the force feedback on your G940 when you modded it ?
No, BU0836 is for "drive" throttle, rudder and rotaries axis - in these still used pots (someone say 0,10U$ ones...), since Logitech firmware induce error in this axis - see what Artist say above. He say that every change this pots for better ones or HALL sensor dont cure "reverse bug".

X and Y axis - that already use Melexis 3D HALL sensor (contact less) - still using Logitech circuit, so you no lost FF efects, that work only in this two axis.

Well in that case, I'd rather go for something more up to date.
The question is: in FF stick dont exist nothing better than M$ FF2:

Right: That is exactly what the problem is and how I and others modded the G940: Kept the Hall-sensored x- and y-axis of the stick on the Logitech controller (Logitech fixed the reversal Bug on those) and connected all other axes to B0836(A or X). That way we do have FFB and all axes precise...

From what I've read, this seem to be correct - never read a bad opinion o the MS-FFB2. The G940 could have been a more than worthy follower, but as of now it is usable only if you take it apart and start soldering - thereby loosing all warranty... I choose this path and am quite happy. Next step will be replacing potentiometers with Hall-sensors

@ Artist

Question : did you solve the X an Y axes reversal bug through the new firmware produced by Logitech, or did you do get rid of the bug by using your Software YaDeLi or Multi-Throttle ?

@ Artist & Sokol1

No matter how good the M$ FF2 is, it does not have rudder pedals, Dual throttle and programmable switches. This is also what I am looking for.

By the way, is the M$ FF2 working fine under Win 7 64-bits ?

I read on the Logitech forum that hope is not totally gone for Logitech to fix the reversal bug for all the remaining axes presenting the bug. It is mentionned that they are working on it
