To anyone with a PFC Jetliner Yoke... Question

Recommended Posts

I've had my yoke for almnost a year now and it has been used quite extensively... I have heard a creaking noise developing in the bottom ( I know its the springs) but is there anything I can do to stop the creaking?? Its honestly getting quite annoying..everytime I move the yoke it creaks... I have contacted PFC but its holidays in the USA (I'm in Canada)... just wondering if anyone else experienced this?Chris

It may be possible to shoot some WD-40 into the mechanical linkage in the base. I'd be careful though because there's a circuit card down there near the DB15 joystick plug and it may have an adverse effect.I know becaus when I got mine the first thing I did was completely gut it to replace the membrane switches with 'real' ones so I could interface it to the EPIC system.I think that voided my warranty though ;-) Ray
