I'm a proud owner of a brand new FCC3 i really like the feel of it but there is less play then i expected (or i tighten the mounting screws too much) i experienced a very small drifting from the center at first install but after a second more accurate HW centering it disappeared completely, after a while i discovered that it was worsened by the c clamp that i use to fix the thing to the desk, I'm working on a support that will distribute loads more evenly but even with the c clamp only a couple of points of drift are there and they can be rid of by a 3% dead zone settings.

This is the first I've heard of a new Force-Controlled Cougar revision...what's changed this time?

(I'm still using the FCC-1 that was preinstalled in my Cougar when I bought it used years ago.)

Unit iself is identical to FCC-2 ( accordingly to the pictures of the FCC2 that I saw), Arend told me that 2 was no longer in production and the 3 has replaced it when i placed the order.
