Isamu m'avait donné son adresse mail l'année dernière, j'espère qu'il n'en a pas changé, je lui ai transmis le message...
Je ne voudrai pas trop m'avancer mais malheureusement je pense que seul un encodeur optique permet une résolution suffisante pour le multi tour, et c'est pour çà qu'il y a cette 3ième carte Immersion, les deux autres étant pour le Happ standard 270° avec potard 5K, la seule différence étant d'avoir l'option pédalier à 2 ou 3 pédales pour ces deux cartes...
Hello Stef, Ben and Agantye....sorry I've been away for so long, been a bit busy LOL. I hope one of you guys can translate this to French. Sorry I don't understand French and use Google Translate to read this forum :lol:
Stef I got your email my friend. Thanks. I have answered your email and I will also copy and paste my comments here in this post:

Hello Stef, good to hear from you. Wow, how did you find my youtube video lol? Glad you enjoyed it dude. What did Agantye think? lol.
Anyway to answer some of your questions....
1)My Immersion card....I was never able to use it because it got lost in the mail, so I don't know too much about it. David from Force Dynamics once told me his impressions of it, and he said it works very well with the Happ wheel. He uses it on the 301 and 401 motion sims.
2)As far as my ECCI Wheel, it does *NOT* use the Immersion board at all. It uses ECCI's own circuit board and is very powerful. The box that houses the board is very big and even has its own fan and power switch. Certainly nothing to be experimented with.
3)I have tested the Happ wheel a few months ago when I initially got it back from my friend. I though the effects were very good. But I sent it back to my friend so he can try and resolve the remaining interference issues. I haven't heard from my friend lately but I assume he is still very busy at the moment. I definitely intend to get it back from him, but to be very honest with you Stef, I really don't know if I will even want to use it that much, after buying and using the ECCI wheel. The ECCI is ridiculously good! The forces are strong and turning the wheel is very smooth. I don't really remember what the Happ feels like that well, to be honest. I remember it felling smooth but I don't remember *how* smooth. I'd like to get it back so I can conduct a comparison, but I dunno if I want to go through the hassle of unmounting my ECCI and then mounting the Happ. The ECCI is mounted very securely, so it would be kind of a PITA to remove it from my frame. When GT5 comes out, I may or may not do it. It depends of how well I like GT5 and what the reviews are like. We will see though. Only time will tell.
4)If you do not intend to use the Happ Wheel with your PS3 at all, then yes, absolutely get the Immersion board. It will save you having to figure out all the amp and intereference issues. You will still need to do some wiring, but it will be less messy. Me on the otherhand, if and when I go back to it, it will be solely for GT5 and OOA.

So unfortunately, the bottomline is the ECCI is a powerful wheel but is a wheel that is NOT to be experimented with! I will still take pictures of my Happ when I get it back. That is a promise! Let me know if you guys have any mroe questions.
