    I currently have 2 bruised ribs and the new FFB has some incredible torque that brings immense pain to my chest. Until my ribs heal I would like to know if there is a way to dial back the torque without affecting other forces? I'm under the impression that by dialing back the torque I also lose sensitivity across the board. Am I wrong, hopefully? FFB feels good so far, other than my physical condition which prevents me from enjoying it to it's fullest.

    My wheelbase is a CSW 2.5 and I use Fanalab.

    Reduce overall force then decrease linearity. This will make the highs lower but boost the smaller forces that have been scaled down.

    Get well soon.

    After spending the day making adjustment after adjustment I ended up leaving everything on 100 in game and in Fanalab I have everything at 100 except for Overall FFB which is at 85. Drf at 0. No doubt tomorrow this will all change.

    This is the first FFB I have ever used that has made me so aware that my CSW 2.5 is belt-driven. There is some sort of gyro effect that accentuates the belt-driven feeling. Almost feels like my belts are slipping, which they aren't. I'm not even close to clipping. I'd really like to try this on a DD wheel and see if it feels the same way.

    No other sim's FFB makes me feel the need for a DD wheel. This might be an expensive update for me.
