Hello flight simulator peoplez, :shakehea:
I would just like to know if joysticks wear out with regard to the gel on the rolli-ball at the bottom centre of the stick function. As I have had a microsoft sidewinder pro for about 3-4 years now and has been great but now every time I rotate the joystick to yaw or bank it completes the move instentanously for a number of seconds instead of moving slowly and smootly for however long I wish. Some people have suggested that time has taken its toll on the joystick.
What do you guys think?
Thanks in advance for any advice or assistance 8)
