Saitek Yoke. Should I remove the springs?

Post by DogTailRed2 »

I have the Saitek yoke. Quite old now had it for umpteen years.
I'm wondering if it would be more realistic if I remove the centering springs for bank and pitch?
Anyone done this? Technical nightmare?

Lots of tips on youtube.

In the end though I bought a Honeycomb yoke as the Saitek does not have full scale deflection in roll.
