Cool Solved hard-right problem.

Just solved the hard-right problem on my Cyborg X. The problem was just as described, a random hard-right during game play in any game.

It was a hardware problem but easy to fix. When I took the handle off the joystick, accomplished by twisting the handle lock under the palm rest, I found a tiny bit of liquid had seeped onto the connectors. It appeared to be some sort of oil, it wasn't water and I've never spilled anything onto the joystick.

Anyway, I wiped the liquid off with my finger, re-assembled the stick, and the hard-right problem is gone completely. If I had to guess I'd say Saitek used some sort of lubricant in the stick design that eventually seeped onto the controls; annoying, but an easy solution.

BTW, why the heck is registration disabled on the forums?

Hi, thanks for the info on the oil, you are possible the one of the first to report this, I will pas this on to the factory today.
The reason we can't open the registration is because we were constantly getting spammer, so much so it was over loading and locking the forum every day so it was decided to close it.
