Force_Feedback Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 Question: What do you use to lube the base of the stick? I heard candle way did the job, but it's so messy. Creedence Clearwater Revival:worthy:
Pilotasso Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 Sonny I think you just candidated yourself to be my new dart target cover... .
britgliderpilot Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 Silicone grease. Have some for my airsofts that I also use on my r.c. shogun so I use that. Don't use silicone spray lube. Its too thin. BGP also suggested pencil graphite a while back as well. I've heard myself being quoted for that a couple of times, but have zero memory of actually saying it :p It's a neat idea . . . . . but for plastic sticks, I think silicone is a more convenient answer. Haven't tried the spray stuff (that I also have for airsoft, oh the coincidences), but am using zip-ties and silicone grease on my X45 and it's working nicely. And having checked the links and testing extensively, I can report that yes, indeed it has done wonders for my FPS . . . . . . :p On an unrelated note, I'd be interested to know (in as detail-free a way as possible) if anyone has tried KY Jelly or similar to try lubing their *flight sim* joystick, and what the results were? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v121/britgliderpilot/BS2Britgliderpilot-1.jpg
Guest IguanaKing Posted October 16, 2005 Posted October 16, 2005 I always use Turtle Wax myself. I tried a different FPS mod and got even better results. Here's my pre-mod screen shot. This is the mod I tried. http://www.perfectpeople.net/picpage.php3/cpid=29885 These are my post-mod results. I couldn't be happier. :D I call it the Daisy mod. :icon_jook
TucksonSonny Posted October 17, 2005 Author Posted October 17, 2005 Anyway, each time I listen to my wingman saying “two rolling” I imagine for some reason Paris Hilton all over the place:icon_mrgr .

britgliderpilot Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 We should totally rename this place "The Paris Hilton Bar" :p http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v121/britgliderpilot/BS2Britgliderpilot-1.jpg

Cobra360 Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 What do you think of when your wingman says, ''two, in position'' or ''two rolling in hot''? :D Gotta love fighter talk.
