I gotta be honest stumpjumpermadmodder, the old sidewinder is not as good as it used to be in the latest WoFF versions. I think they changed the code or something and it's perhaps no longer supported? It jumps around a lot particularly on take off. and the FFB is a bit limp or comes in late when manouvering. Some say to take your fingers off the front of the stick to kill the FFB when it's exaggerated but it's just not the same innit. I hate to say this because I love the stick but I wouldn't recommend it.

MS no longer supports it either, so not looking good all round. I ditched mine a couple of years back.
