Lincon i found this bit of info on a review site so i cut and pasted it for you hope it helps mate

My Aviator flight stick’s trigger broke only the second time I used it. Yeah, I was upset. I was in the middle of blasting some tanks in Ace Combat 6 and suddenly the machine gun stopped firing. At first, I assumed it had run out of bullets or jammed… but then I realized that neither of those things happen in the game. Then I heard a rattling noise when moving the joystick around and knew something was wrong.

So I busted out a screwdriver and four screws later my brand-new joystick was in multiple pieces and I was staring at the circuitry inside. I quickly noticed that the trigger mechanism was nothing more than a small spring which was supposed to press against a small metal tab that would, in turn, press against a tiny blue button. The problem was that the metal tab had come loose and was clanging around inside the joystick. I snapped the metal tab back into place, put it all back together again, and all is well again. I hope that it doesn’t come loose again.
