Would the SFS throttle thing work with my Miccrosoft force feedback pro even though it has the little throttle wheel on it?

I have the same question. I was told that they should work together, I have yet to try this...my SFS Combo is being fixed by Suncim.

No such luck, gents. I tried the same and all I got was "Joystick not connected" or similar error. Switched my MS FFB Pro out for my old trusty CH FlightStick Pro and it works fine with the Suncom SFS. Bummer cause I miss my FFB!

BTW, Suncom's first entry in their troubleshooting area for the SFS is that it will NOT work with any MS gear. Wish I had read that first! If anyone has gotten this combo to work, PLEASE POST THE FIX HERE!

SFS users of the world unite...

I've had the Talon/SFS combo for aobut 4 montsh and have been extremely happy...seriously, for the flexability, ditch your Microsoft and get the Talon...heheeh

I just ordered game commander which is gonna free up some more spaces on the stick in which to program stuff...in F-15E i've got HOTAS for inflight stuff (i've still gotta use the kyboard for comms...hence game Commander)

I'm running into problems actually finding commands for which to program onto my stick...I've got Slots 1/2/3 on both stick and throttle set up for Nav Mode, AA mode, and AG mode respectively...of course, when i get JF18 all those are gonna get reprogrammed, but than again i'm not gonna be flying F-15E for awhile.
