Just remove the 8 screws from the bottom cover. The detent plunger is in the bottom cover, lift it out and replace cover (nothing will fly apart on you).

Why do you want to remove the detents? I have an x52 pro and it is so bad I had to go back to my MS FF. Could never get it to calibrate.

Never had that problem with the X52 - I'd send it back if it doesn't hold calibration.

Does anybody know if you can do the same on the CH Throttle Quadrant? Those detents really irritate me! Not only do they throw off the input, but they screw up when I'm trying to use the axis for anything from throttle to trim to FOV.
