Sorry if it's not clear or grammatically incorrect, but I said "constant force feedback". The spring in the sidestick does provide a constant force feedback, doesn't it ?
Or would it be more grammatically correct to say "constant force feel" ?

The interesting question behind this being : is it harder to push a few dozen kg with both arms on a yoke or a few kg (how much is it for the airbus?) with only one hand ?
If I have time, maybe I will measure it at work with a luggage scale, which will give an approximate answer.
