CH Fighterstick spring adjustment

[Svsmokey]

I am trying to eke out a few more month's service from the fighterstick before going Virpil . The one thing that i would like to improve in the interim is the spring tension , which seems too high for smooth control inputs , particularly small adjustments around the center . Is there an easy fix for this ?

 

Also , I have the opposite problem with the throttle , which is entirely too loose .

 

Sokol , you out there ?

The easy way is add rubber bands - the ones for secure model airplanes wings is better, over original springs. Can use too condom rings.

For stiff the throttle can use VELCRO® strips:

Is there anything you don't know about HOTAS controllers?

Updated : i have since found no need to decrease the spring tension on the joystick . My previous problem was in making tiny corrections around the center-point . I have since removed the deadzone (2) i previously had , and which it turns out , i didn't need . I am now entirely happy with the stick , and have no problem making miniscule corrections .

 

Regarding the throttle , i will be making that mod soon , hopefully with the addition of an afterburner detent via the velcro as well . Still playing with axis curves/saturation before installing velcro .

 

Thanks again , Sokol !
