Draken35 Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 (edited) @Apar much appreciated Sir!

TellerJohn Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) @Apar @MustangSally @Draken35 Disassembled the Orion Base for the Winwing Collective (easier than I thought it would be) and applied NyoGel PG-44A Super Damping Grease (5g Tube) to the friction dampers. Zero stiction now. I followed this description from another forum: Take the top of the case off - 4 screws and 2 axis connections. Remove both throttle hall sensors - 2 screws. Remove complete centre assembly, by removing bottom of case - 6 screws. Once you have the centre assembly separated, remove the bolts that hold each half together. Lever one side away and you'll see the clear plastic circular strip...this needs the grease applied on the inside. Carry out the same on the other side. Be careful of the spring detentes, they will fall out. Edited November 4, 2021 by TellerJohn added final text 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TellerJohn Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) In the last pic above I'm pointing at one of the friction damper assemblies exposed. It's that plastic ring, which only looks black because there's still the original grease underneath. The ring slips off, and you clean it then apply the new damper grease. Repeat on the other side. It's a game changer. Edited November 4, 2021 by TellerJohn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MustangSally Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Also disassembled mine about 2 weeks ago and added the Nyogel. I don't use the extension as mines bolted to the underside of my Taurus.

Apar Posted November 4, 2021 Author Share Posted November 4, 2021 Wow he really opened it up.. You have a video for the result? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TellerJohn Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) What, pics not good enough for ya? No vid was recorded. Besides, you've already done the steering damper mod so not much point for you. But the patient is doing just fine after successful surgery, better than factory condition. No stiction at all.

GregP Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Just wanted to note that I recently did the Neogel lubing process as shown by TellerJohn above, and it has indeed significantly improved the feeling of my collective. Nearly no stiction anymore! Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
