Greased of course.īut.I question the sanity of putting that much effort into this stick, because there is no way of knowing how long the rest of the stick (switches/electronics) is going to last. With maybe the pivot pins riding in a solid bearing made of bearing bronze. X-axis pivot or Y-axis saddle with something made of a sturdier material like aluminum. I've had this stick so long I can no longer remember if it was this loose when I bought it, but I think not.Įverything is plastic of course, and I figure that to tighten up the gimbal I would have to encase all bearing surfaces/pivot pins in metal, or replace the entire piece, i.e. In moving the stick around and loading/unloading the gimbal mechanism I can literally see the looseness/wear in it's pivots. Sloppy handle/shaft interface and front heavy handle has mine tilting forward at rest (centered).īut the real problem is.the whole gimbal mechanism is showing signs of wear. And, the stick itself is nose heavy (tilts forward) exacerbating the sloppy handle to shaft fitment. I was unable to get the handle off of the shaft it is mounted to, but it is definitely a sloppy fit on that shaft. After looking into this a bit, I am unsure how I will proceed.
