Let me think on that a bit. Should be able to write something that runs in 
the background, reads the stick position, and writes to the port.

Are you sure you want to use raw joystick data to run a motion platform, 
though? Would be better to get g-load data from the sim. There are quite a 
few times when the platform does stuff totally unrelated to the stick 
(pushing forward should give a pitch up from the platform to simulate 
acceleration, for example).
