[simpits-tech] Analog Axis to FS2002 through Epic via EpicLink, comment regarding OT posts and forums.

[Stuart Whelan]

Masses of egg on face. :)

In an effort to solve a different problem, yesterday I updated to the
latest wideserver/wideclient and FSUIPC. As side effect of this was that
now there is /NO/ discernable lag on the controls! 

Woohoo!

Cheers!
Stuart.

Eggs have yolks, airplanes have yokes. :)

That's not even acceptable for a *slow* jet.  Great response time if
you're simulating an oxcart. :)  NEVER remote off your primary flight
controls!  Even the lowest level simulator certification requires a
300ms input to reponse time. (Level D)

As things begin to happen fast, you'll find yourself "chasing" the
airplane with that big of a control delay.
