apparently pulling harder doesn't make a bad pot in a joy stick work better but it can show you any flaws in the pedestal structure.

Cya's in the friendly skies of AH in a coupla days at most.

The image of you staring at your hand with the stick wires dangling below is priceless. I hope it isn't too inconvenient and you're back up and running soon.

There was some extraordinarily creative use of the language there for a few minutes, even if I do say so myself. Thankfully the range mic ptt wasn't stuck down or I'd be waiting until Monday when I could talk to Skuzzy and try to explain myself .

If it spikes, pull. if it cracks, pull harder. if it breaks, smash it on the desk.
been there, done that.

Yeah... and I've learned that if you get shot at in Iraq while fixing equipment and you send an entire clip down range for every shot fired at you, that even these dolts figure out that when big man at radar no fire!

I think I still have an old Thrustmaster and it's replacement parts around here somewhere.
Did the same thing in my early AWarrior days, snapped the stick right off

Yep, broke three Logitech sticks in fightertown, went CH and it hasn't happened since.
