- Please disregard the upper and lower deadzones in these screenshots. Those refer to the lbs-settings derived by using the FSSB Resistance Calculator and may vary based on your own FSSB hardware settings (6, 8, 10, 21 lbs etc.) as well as the desired force. More on that topic can be found in the FSSB resistance thread.
- Also, the in CCP "trim" is the same thing called "shift" in LOMAC, and in both cases use a neutral setting ("0" in CCP and "50%" in LOMAC, which means no trim/shift is being applied in either graph).
- That brings us to the curves and center deadzone (highlighted areas). Since we prefer to have identical pitch (y-axis) curves, while allowing the proper use of our "connect trim" feature, everyone sets their curves up in LOMAC with 10% deadzone and 40% curve, but when it comes to roll (x-axis) and rudder (z-axis) that could vary depending if the pilot is using gameport pedals or USB pedals as well as personal preferences. As you cen tell from the images below, the y-axis is setup with "0" deadzone and "0" curve in CCP, while using 10%, 40% respectively in LOMAC, however, for the x-axis and z-axis "10%" deadzone in CCP and a "-7" curve is used in CCP, while setting up 0%, 0% respectively in LOMAC. This way you always end up with 10% center deadzone no matter which method is used to tweak the curves and a curve value of either 40% in LOMAC or a "-7" in CCP. Do not use curve in both graphs for the same axis at the same time! Using this method in combination with the resistance calculator makes transitioning to different FSSB forces easy and allows everyone to continue using the same "pull profile" (-yaxis profile).
NOTE: 40% curve in LOMAC equals approx a "-7" curve in CCP.

P.S. If you are using rudder pedals that do not hookup directly to the gameport on the Cougar, you'll need to use the LOMAC curves setup for your rudders, since CCP only recognizes pedals connected directly to the Cougar.
