Not a rumble pack. A real force model.
FFB-Bridge reads live flight state — airspeed, G, surface position, trim, gear, flaps, engines, terrain — and turns it into forces your hand can read. Centering that loads up with speed and G, trim that settles the stick, buffets you feel before you hear, and ground that talks back through the runway.
A Cessna shouldn't feel like an airliner.
Pick how the aircraft's controls are driven and the whole stick changes character. It's a per-aircraft setting, saved with the profile.
Cable & pushrod
Direct mechanical controls. Forces build with airspeed and stiffen under G, exactly as a light aircraft's controls load up in your hand. The default — and the feel for trainers and GA singles.
Powered yoke
A boosted control run with artificial feel. Aerodynamic loading is present but gentler and smoother — the heavy, damped feedback of a large hydraulically-assisted aircraft.
Side-stick
A computer flies the surfaces; the stick is a constant-feel spring that doesn't load with speed or G, and the side-stick stays free of engine and stall vibration. The modern airliner feel.
Every force, modelled from the sim.
Grouped by what they represent. Mute a whole group from the Dashboard, or fine-tune any single effect.
How it centres & settles
- G-loaded centering spring with dynamic deadband
- Trim relief — eases the held force and shifts the centre to where you trimmed
- Rate damping that resists fast control rates
- Low-speed stick drop
What the air is doing
- Airspeed-loaded pitch & roll forces
- Stall buffet + a sharp stall stick-shaker
- Overspeed (VNE) and Mach buffet
- Spoiler buffet and a turbulence overlay
The runway talks back
- Runway rumble scaled by surface — grass rougher, ice slick
- Touchdown thump and gear bumps
- Brake shudder
- Nosewheel shimmy and a ground-acceleration pitch cue
The engines, felt
- Continuous engine rumble scaled per-engine by RPM
- Reverse-thrust rumble on the rollout
Things that move
- Gear-deploy shudder
- Flap-step shudder, both directions
- Undercarriage-type rumble scaling
A quiet hands-off cue
- Optional gentle follow cue so you can feel what the autopilot is doing
- Clamped to stay well clear of pilot-override
Deep, but approachable.
The model is detailed because aircraft are. The app keeps that depth within reach — live sliders, a master gain, a dashboard that shows every channel, and a bench mode to feel changes without a sim running.
