FS force with G940 FFB

Like everyone else, I have been using FS force to make the VRS Hornet trim out correctly. While it works great, I am wondering if I might have a compatibility issue or I'm just doing it wrong. I have the FFB disabled in FSX, and use the FS force settings, but I also have FFB enabled and set up in the Logitech Gaming software for my G940 stick/pedals/throttle. The problem I am having is that while it makes the Superbug trim out correctly, the FFB doesn't feel right. What I get is a very small kind of null zone where there's no FFB at all, and outside of that the stick is very stiff. I thought the default fighter jet setting in FS force my just be like that but it doesn't seem to matter how I set up any of the profiles in FS force, I always have that same feel in the stick. If I disable the FS force FFB and enable FSX FFB, I can adjust the setting how I want it through the Logitech software. I am wondering if there is some sort of conflict between Logitech and FS force programs and I need to disable the Logitech FFB settings completely while I'm using FS Force...?
 
Why are you trimming the VRS Hornet? The plane automatically trims, as it's fly by wire. Even then, if you were to manually trim the aircraft, the control stick isn't physically connected to the control surfaces. If anything, set it to FSX trimming (via FSForce) and set a standard pressure that doesn't increase or decrease with speed. This would be the most realistic for this plane.

I'm not trimming the VRS and Hornet. The autotrim works fine. The problem is the feel of the FFB effect in that plane and any other plane whenever I use FS force.
