[simpits-tech] Yoke/pedal force

Hey Gene,

This rig was a pain to get working.  The white thing(quick exhaust valve) took me forever to get
working. I have the G-suit regulator that the F-16 uses and was going to modify it.  It didn't
exhaust as fast as I'd like.  Since I'm using it to simulate Gz rather than combating blackout, the
standard exhaust performance feels wrong.

The rig in the pic has one annoying flaw... it farts.  There's harmonic resonance between the
regulator and the QEV.  Dave is going to work with me in improving the fabrication of the parts and
hopefully get a smoother performance.

Craig R.

This is something that I'm interested in since I now have the G-metering
block for the F-15.  Cool setup!
