I marked it with some twink, played a bit to experience the problem, and checked its position relative to the motor spindle. Then I thought the gear on the back of the motor that runs the optical sensor disc *must* be slipping, even though it has no load on it to make it slip. After a dissassemble and clean, still no dice! Problem is still there. Then i noticed that these beasties use an optical sensor to detect wheel motion, not a variable resistor, so i assumed it would just be dust causing the optical sensor to miss movements. Really, there is nothing to slip, as its all geared in there. I assumed it would be something slipping inside, so i cracked it open and had a look. This is not unique to LFS, happens in GTR2, GT Legends, The windows game controller calibration util etc. Basically any time you move the wheel fast, or fight the force feedback. For example, after turning a corner, the center position in the game no longer matches the center position of the wheel, i have to hold the wheel 30deg to the right to make the car drive straight, and after a few more corners, it might have slipped calibration back to normal, or maybe now i have to hold the wheel 60deg to the left to drive the car straight. My Momo Force (black) loses calibration while driving.
