Hi

I have noticed that there is more forward/backward movement in the control stick than I would like. It appears is the due to the control stick OD being somewhat smaller than the WD-1011 ID. Has anyone else encountered this and if so what was the solution.

Cheers

Les

I saw something similar, many of us have. It was the brass bushing further down on the assembly. (sorry, don’t have the part numbers now)

I turned down a new bushing to a custom fit out of delrin, and it’s got zero slop now.

Mine are an interference fit on both sticks. Something has changed.

Warm regards

Hi Patrick

I don't recall this being a problem on my first -10. In any event,the sticks are *not* an interference fit now. I think I'll call Vans in the am.

Thanks

Les

That is not a comforting thought! Controls are not something that should be "sloppy". I'll post whatever info I get from Vans.

Cheers

Hi

I spoke to Vans Tech Support today and they are sending me new sticks / sockets. The ones on their shelf are very tight.

What really impressed me was that Mitch Lock, the president of Vans, was taking tech support calls. He was most helpful!.

Cheers

Les
