CRM320 41 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Talked to Saitek about the stiffness of the throttle. It seems this is caused by the grease, in transit during the cold period we had the grease solidified. There tech people advised me to move the throttle as fast as possible back and forward for 30 seconds, really put an effort into it. That seems to solve most of the problem for me. It also helped to put the stick in the sun so it heats up for a while. Hi Mathijs Tried that but the throttle is still as hard as hell, not really impressed on that front. Any other tip? We are waiting for Saitek to come back to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are waiting for Saitek to come back to us. Use a sharpened or propelling pencil to rub some graphite from the pencil tip into the pivot points.

Guest Dag Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Hi, The best Stick/Throttle/HOTAS I've ever had, very precise and I've abused that throttle so much the friction is fine now. I would highly recommend this stick and I have no problems controlling Helos. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
