Yes thats it. I post again here the same stuff for those that dont want to go to the link

The world famous Ivankuturkokoffrubberbandmod. I came from a Cougar then Cougar ubernxt so know the issue. I knocked off the Condom mod idea and used standard Aussie newsagent rubber bands. I run 2 size 12 bands in the pitch axis and a single no 12 in the roll axis. This gives you a little more stickforce in Pitch compared to roll which is nice. In each case I put a single Double twist in each band. Just make sure that bands go inside the support. Incorrect and correct routing shown in the jpgs below. The incorrect routing works just fine btw but band failure occurs a little more often

This mod is straight forward and is fail tolerant. I get about 6 months in the Pitch axis and forever in the roll axis. There is no problem with safety or risk in damaging the stick as the bands oppose the jaws you can see this in the top A labelled jpg below..... no strange smells either. Also no issues with calibration as again the bands oppose the jaws so will auto centre everytime. Even better it is fully adjustable want more tension just add another band to suit your tastes.

Its fail tolerant so when one goes the stick still works. It takes about 5 mins from go to woe to do the mod.


Here are some images ... all you need:







You need to unscrew the bottom of the CH stick (caution if you are still under warranty you will void it). There are screws under each of the rubber feet that can be popped off with a screwdriver as they are just tacked on with glue. An additional screw is located under the "don't open me or you will void your warranty" sticker.

btw...if anybody with an ch stick is still interested, Bob Church from ch-hangar confirmed my assumption, that ch software indeed does produce a small deadzone in the center of the stick after calibration.but he also told me that its possible to write a small script to delete that deadzone.....will post it here if he shows me how.
