Well, after a lot of detail I have the first FULLY WORKING prototype

I have finally flown it in Falcon 4 and was a little concerned about
the roll axis since it seems to take a lot of yanking to get full deflection
on the DVM, but I was wrong, it flies like a dream! This baby rocks!
I had it bench mounted so it is not in the actual position it would be
in a cockpit. Still, it is everything I had hoped for and more. It is
remarkably stable and accurate. It seems easy enough to steer the aircraft
where you want it with precision. It takes some getting used to since the
stick forces are much higher than a standard PC joystick, but welcome to
reality. I am very pleased.
Marv,
It look superb! Congratulations ;)
Cheers
James
