Before reassembling you must ensure the gears are properly aligned. Make sure to apply pressure on the top of the sensor and the gear end of the axle to ensure it is completely seated. When you are done with that snap it back into the end of the axle (don't forget the little metal clip!).

I was always aggravated about how loose the throttle felt on this joystick and this will definitely stiffen it up some. I removed the axle from mine and put a bit of this bushing grease on it and the gears. Once you remove the Throttle Axis Sensor repeat what you did before with the Twist Axis sensor. There is a little metal clip securing it from the inside so you have to use a little bit of force. Use your Needle Nosed Pliers to carefully wedge the Throttle Axis Sensor from the throttle assembly. Locate and remove the four screws from throttle bracket.

Anyway, I just cut off the part of the boot that was crumbling apart and I donвЂ™t think itвЂ™ll be a future problem. If you have a button that isn't working correctly some of this stuff might have got stuck under it and cleaning that may fix it. If yours is dirty like mine was then use compressed air to blow that stuff out. This caused a lot of little pieces of rubber to be all inside of my joystick. Set the base upside down on top of a magazine or book and be careful not to stretch the wires. Lift the silver base up and lightly slip it over the spine while threading the upper button pad through the hole. Just let it hang off to the side for now, you'll put it back on later. Now your Twist Axis Sensor is fixed! You should be getting really excited right about now. Turns out, it worked!! Lightly turn it back and forth a few times being very careful not to break it.

I thought, maybe by twisting it back and forth through its full range of motion a couple of times, whatever is causing the erratic readings might get cleaned up. I think that because it gets a little greasy from the factory, and because it only gets turned so far back and forth, grease or dust may build up in those two spots and mess with the readings. The joystick only uses about 1/3 of the range of the sensor. Well, I looked into this and turns out I was right. The first thing I suspected when I took this out is that the sensor actually has more range than the joystick uses. Notice that the bottom part spins around but only goes so far each way. Use a tiny bit of rubbing alcohol on a paper towel or rag and lightly clean the bottom of it. Apply pressure on opposite sides of the bottom of it with the left and right tips of your needle nosed pliers and pop it out. See that little rectangle on the top of the stick with the wiring harness coming out of it? As you can see, it looked a little dirty. I slid the trigger button off of the left side of the handle, cleaned the axle, and put bushing grease on it. Don't worry about the top part hanging down, it is not going anywhere. Now, pull the left and right pieces apart. To disassemble the handle use your thumbnail to release the little locking tab on the bottom of it.

They are all identical except for the tiny one.Дon't forget the 2 on the bottom of the handle. Go ahead and take all the screws out and put them in a safe place. Best to do it first so you don't take all the rest out to find you don't have a small enough Phillips head to reach this one.

Now it's Unscrew Time! Start with the tiny screw on the very top right of the stick. YouвЂ™re going to need to tape up button 2 on the joystick because it'll annoy you when putting this thing back together if you don't. These can maybe lose tensile strength over time but mine seems brand new. Note: I Have completely disassembled mine and most of the pics may have more stuff taken off than is necessary for that part of the maintenance.Д«y the way, after taking mine apart, I found there are really only a few parts that wear out The spring for the actual stick (x and y axis) and the spring for twisting the stick (z axis). Thick Grease/Lube (I used Bushing Grease) Here is a tutorial on fixing that problem once and for all.ДЄttempt At Own Risk, Don't Lose Anything! Regardless of how many times you calibrate it, it keeps outputting incorrectly.
