Hello

I have the joystick "Saitek Cyborg Evo". I've had this joystick for along time, but i have a problem with it, for some reason whenever my throttle is like halfway or under, there is no resistance, in other words its not sticking it just keep slowly falling down until the bottom.

 

has anyone got any things to solve this problem.

Thanks

I used to have this problem with my PSS/POSKY 777 merge , the solution was to make sure that the ''sim=PSSB777LR-GE'' is there in each entry for every paint. What used to have is when the switch the Auto-Throttle it either fall down or rise up without actual control for speed , not sure if this match to your problem.

Is it happening with all models or only to a specific model ? make sure you are using the correct 'sim=xx' beacuse this might be the reason

as any throttle ages this slowly becomes a problem. if its still under warranty see if the manufacturer will fix/replace it, if not then if you feel lucky open it up and see if you can tighten things up a bit
