I am using microsoft force feedback pro joystick with fs2002 but there is no feedback when flying the helicopters, even the default jetranger. Can anyone tell me how to get more realistic feedback? Eg. The bell usually has a 2 per second shake characteristic of the two blade rotor system.

I don't think what you are describing is modeled in FS2002.  Someone may be able to prove me wrong and that is fine, but it sounds like you have some experience with the Bell 206.  But I have noticed that no helicopter in FS2002 have shown any feedback.  It would be cool if it did.  I have spent sometime in helicopters and there is no real vibration like the real thing.

GrinNope, I use the FF2 all the time and no vibration with the choppers, only when landing or crashing (Which I do often, given the way I fly) especially mountain flyin'.  Wish there were, it would make for a great feeling. Still love the FF2 - couldnt be without it now.

I have the same feeling, when I fly (C172) in crosswinds I see the airspeed needle moves but I get no feedback.
When I loaded the profiles I set to FS2K as default for the game.
Is there a profile for FS2k2? or it´s just missing? ???
