Hi to all,
is there somewhere a possibility to get informations about a project for DIY force sensors for a side stick, e.g. for the TCA?
Thanks for advise,
regards Werner
Are you trying to get some feedback out of Airbus ? 
Well, just because you fly with a sidestick in a simulator doesn’t mean you’re limited to flying an airbus
based on the source linked below, force feedback does rival springs in terms of replicating the feel of flybywire. I have no experiance in an airbus, so I cannot prove it, but take it from someone who has.

Now, editing a flight stick to include Force Feedback is an insanely difficult task. Motors to support force feedback sensors are very large. The only out of box modication for force feedback DIY that I know of was for the Saitek yoke, and modifying that with force feedback must have been close for space.
I don’t know of any DIY or buyable modification for any sidestick, though there is a company making a force feedback sidestick, though I’m fairly sure it’s a single man operation and the queue for buying it is long if he still makes them anymore.

Then, finally, I redirect you to your last choice on the market, the Brunner CLS-E for an insane price.
CLS-E FORCE FEEDBACK JOYSTICK - BRUNNER (brunner-innovation.swiss)
You’re also very welcome to develop your own TCA FFB modification to allow others asking the same question to finally get an answer, but it won’t be easy.

Hi, yes. I am using A320, Fenix A320 and FBW. But should not limited to these models.
Well, thank you.
I will check all, maybe the HOTAS Magnectic Base incl. a side stick will provide what I’m looking for, but I’m not sure. Would give it a try.
I know I was only joking around Airbus and no feedback from controls
Just buy an old Microsoft sidewinder 2 FFB and rig it with the grip of your choice.
