Many thanks Jordan.
Did you receive my letters from last night on the latest from the fs 2020
project?
I also shipped them to Aaron as well.
With the directional and layered sounds, I think they're going to be awesome
sounds in the new fs 2020 project.
Can't wait until October to think about purchasing me a new flight simulator
for my belated birth day present. SMILES.

Check Ebay out. Logiteck has one if you are willing to pay for a complete
flight control system that has force feedback.

Hi,
Unfortunately, force feedback seems to be a thing of the past when it comes
to flight controllers. I bought a thrustmaster t.flight 4 back in 2017, and
to my astonishment discovered it lacked force feedback, which even my old
rockfire windstorm pro from 2003 was equipped with. The HOTAS
4 only has twelve buttons though, but I was on a budget. :)
hth,
Tobias

Hello to my fellow gamers and or simmers.
I'd like to find a two stick handheld controller to bring my hand to
ear games and simulators to life if at all possible.
I was a beta tester on the old hand to ear military flight simulator
Three-d Velocity or TDV for short.
It is the only hand to ear product with force feedback written into
the program.
I'm looking for a product that would have 1. in the flying world two
sticks, the left or port side stick controls the pitch for taking off
and landing and the rolling features.
The right hand or Starboard stick controls the speed or velocity and
the banking or turning features.
The TDV project works with most of it's features with a unit with
twelve buttons on it.
I'd like to see something with at least twenty buttons on it.
To not only work with all of the features of the TDV project so that
one doesn't have to constantly go back and forth from the features
that work from just the keyboard and those features that would work
with the handheld controller, but to have as many features and as many
hand to ear products work via the handheld and also foot based USB
external equipment as possible to bring our favorite games and sims as
close as we can to the real world.
If you'd like to grab the now share ware version and it's source code,
go to a web page called Git Hub at:
www.github.com
It will not work with IE 11.
But you will also need to set up a free account out on git hub as well.
I've been attempting to reach the people at Microsoft for their new up
coming project called Flight Simulator 2020, for October 13th, 2020.
But getting back to the TDV project.
We started beta testing that project back in 2010, and back then the
force feedback worked with handheld units that supported force
feedback and the windows 7 world with the older 32 bit processors.
But since jumping from the older 32 bit processors to the newer and
faster 64 bit processors, we never could find a handheld unit that
would support the force feedback feature of the TDV project, but also
work in the world of the
64 bit processor as well.
I have another games which is the older Pipe version 2 Blast Chamber
game which would be awesome is we not only had force feedback written
into the program but also shock feedback since we're down in the sewer
and smell feedback as well.
Like I stated, I'd love to have a unit that would 1. Support force
feedback and shock feedback and hopefully smell feedback.
2. would not only work with the TDV hand to ear flight simulator, but
also work with the Microsoft Flight simulator and other flight
simulators and also with as many hand to ear products as possible so
that we can untie ourselves from the keyboard.
If there's any other flight simmers out there, I highly recommend that
you take a look out on face book and more importantly out on you tube as
well.
I know like most of us, I too like something that is as close to the
real world as possible as possible.
I know that Thrust master had a Flight Yoke and a twistable throttle
package, but could it 1. support force feedback.
2. Have enough buttons so that we could enjoy not only flying but also
gaming like our sighted friends enjoy?
If you'd like to write me off list, I can be reached at:

I thank all who can help me out.
