The higher force would probably counter the urge to yank the stick somewhat

I was more mentioning it to see if you knew anything about any features the Alpha Prime grip uses that
'd require software updating for the Rhino

there is an FFB option for rudders in DCS
, but that could be for only selective airframes

they should be detected as the same device regarding inputs

Also
, smoke renders incorrectly

And some texture issues on recent ED modules which can be fixed by re

T

Most smoke trails
, missile trails
, large fires
, flares etc
.
They do render but as evenly spaced blobs rather than trails
