I don't undestand it. I investigated more and it is not even related to the function, assigned to that button. its button "A" the button on the top right of the mid section of the wheel. there is also a B C X Y and Z but the A is the one that jerks the wheel when pressed. weather it be a horn, a gear shift etc. its odd, very odd and very annoying, because I only got this force feedback wheel for top speed specifically. I was just fine with my topgun joy stick o my ms side winder joy stick with no force feedback but i got this force feedback wheel to feel the game and I'm filling nothing but a jerk or two when pressing A during the game.
also, to note: the wheel is tight and stiff before I bring up top speed. once top speed starts, it makes the wheel loose and not streering wheel like. when I exit top speed the wheel goes back to its tightness. like if the motor inside is intentionally out of a feature or purpose holding it in the center. I'm assuming this is what it is supose to do. so I believe the issue is some where in top speed or the way is is handling the force feedback calls or something. in either case its very disappointing because I was real excited when I brough this home today and now nothing. Hope anyone could help. and yes, forcefeedback is turned on in the game and on the wheel. and yes the wheel works great and responds well during the game and yes I am sure my ff motor works because as stated when top speed is not loaded the wheel is tight and driving like. and I do feel that little jerk to the right when the letter "A" is press on the wheel.
