Craig,=20

well i dont know if im correct , but ill take a punt at 29 lbs for pitch =
down

my theory ( all be it sticky taped together ) is that as a pilot your =
would not want to easily push the nose forward , due to light " stick " =
force,  example  at high speed knocking the stick forward would subject =
you to unbelievable neg "g 's " ,  thats why i think the forward =
pressure would be more than the aft pressure.

i could be wrong

  I'm working on a mod to my Cougar to reproduce the feel of the real =
base.  Marv's not moving fast enough.  ;-)

  I've gotten some conflicting data on the max pitch-down force.  Here =
the specs I'm working with:

  Pitch-up --> 0.165" , 25 lbs.=20
  Pitch-down --> 0.050" , 16 lbs.  or  0.050" 29 lbs.
  Roll --> 0.110" , 17 lbs.

  Anyone know which is correct?
