I know this is an old topic for you but I just saw it for the first time. I enjoy most of Saiteks products but I've got to say after 3 separate units, the yokes are crap! The elevator axis (push/pull on all 3 was not smooth at all and each tended to grab. This makes it very hard to finesse a smooth landing without the nose moving up and down too much.

I know some guys say their Saiteks are really great - but I wonder how they fly. I have been simming for years and I would stay away from the Saitek for the time being. I'm sending the 3rd one back this week!

I called the company and they alluded to the problem but told me there are no plans to change the design.

Yes I tried silicone, and moly lubricant since it is kind to plastic but it does nothing to allow a smooth.shaft pull/push. You'll find all kinds of hits on the Saitek yoke on the internet. Try searching "Saitek Yoke issues" My 2 cents!
