    Hello all,

    I've been playing around with my DIY FFB wheel and the EMC software for about a month now.

    Does anyone have any idea what the things mean in 'tweak FFB' (sine, triangle, square, etc)?

    Specifically when trying to drift my wheel doesn't turn much on its own when trying catch the slide, I'm having to move the wheel along myself and usually end up crashing. The motor turns sloooooowly.

    Other than that the normal FFB is pretty good.

    Any help will be much appreciated!

    Hello mate,

    Thanks for the reply. Where are the reducer and ballast settings? I can't find them in EMC.

    I'm using version 1.0.2 with Arduino if there are no balance setting try to set constant to max. When I turn it to 150 wheel starts spinning a lot faster check it with wheelconfig and cycle setting

    My Motion Simulator:
    2DOF, DC motor, Arduino
    I use EMC software too.
    and what I know is (I got the information from discussion with the developer, Ebolzmagy), you should leave the tweak FFB as it is.
    just set the gain and constant to tweak the speed of the wheel.
    btw, what motor did you use? maybe the motor not that powerful, or the ratio is too big.
