witwas Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Hi Guys, Recently bought a Gunfighter MKIII with the 10 cm extension. Really like the product. But i am a bit struggling which cams and spring combination to use. I personally like strong recentering but no click around the middle (smooth transition between the axis). I used the aviator and space cams with moderate strong springs but i always get the 'click'. On my previous TM Warthog is never had the 'click' and it is a bit hard to get used to.

Any Advise Really the only way you will find what feels right to you, is to experiment. Pretty easy to change out springs and cams, just take notes and try different combinations to see what feels best to you. Perhaps someone will come along that thinks they have theirs setup the way you are describing and can help. But really it does not take that long to change them out.

streakeagle Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Two #50 can damage the bearings. I lost one of my bearings that way. I use both the 10cm and 20cm extensions as needed depending on the grip. I have found that I prefer single #50 or two #40.

witwas Posted December 9, 2020 Author Share Posted December 9, 2020 Thanks for the advice, tested a few configurations yesterday and ended up with the soft aviator cams and single #50's. The 'click' is gone but still a bit to soft around the center for me but already a huge difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dburne Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Yeah one #50 is fine for me.

streakeagle Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 I really love this stick. Winwing thought that after trying their stick, I would like it more than the VKB, but there is no comparison. While Winwing's stick is a big improvement over the Warthog and their take on the Hornet grip is also superior to TM Hornet grip, I still feel and hear the cams as I cross the center. The VKB is as smooth as butter and still centers almost perfectly even with a 20 cm extension and heavy metal TM grips. 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am with you there, been using my Mk III hard for 11 months now and it is smooth as can be.

hipp55 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 If you do not mind what is the difference between the AVIA H and S It looks like more of a dip in the middle Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the soft center cams myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hipp55 Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Thanks I think I will stick with the S for know. I fly the Ka 50 and MI 8 quite a bit so it sounds better, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
