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

I saw something similar, many of us have.  It was the brass bushing further down on the assembly.   (sorry, donâ€™t have the part numbers now)



I turned down a new bushing to a custom fit out of delrin, and itâ€™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

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
