You don't have to go through all of this. I fixed mine. If you slide the throttle all the way up there's a hole at the bottom that lets you adjust the pressure on the rods. You'll also need lots of lubricant. You'll need special purpose plastic-safe lubricant, it's tough to find and expensive. What I ended up using is good old chapstick. I'm serious it works perfectly and has for almost a year now. I just use the plain type. You'll need to open the throttle and lube the metal rods.

2 weeks after getting my t16000m HOTAS I tore it apart and re-greased both the stick and throttle with some of that Nyogel 767a damping grease, worlds different. My only gripe is the grease is a bit heavy for my tastes for the throttle, it moves buttery smooth and easy but has a bit more resistance than I would like when trying to quickly move the throttle which can result in it sliding or lifting off my desk since I don't have it mounted. Using it in the stick also made such a massive change, the t16000 stick has a really aggressive return to center in my opinion, the damping grease really slows this down and makes the stick feel much more precise.

@@krispyk.1786 shouldn't even need to re-grease it very often, been over a year since I did mine and I haven't needed to. Make sure you clean off all the old grease or oil you used before. It's a damping grease so its very thick and feels really sticky when you are applying it. Be generous with it and apply a lot. It has some initial sticktion after sitting for a while but once you move it once it is very smooth. It is quite thick/heavy so I had to loosen up the tensioning spring on the throttle a lot and it still has a lot of resistance. Is it the absolute best? I don't know, I really like it and I have never seen anyone who has used it complain about it. Oh and its formulated to be compatible with plastics so long term use won't damage things like some petroleum greases or oils will.

My way of dealing with the sticking throttle is to apply a slight twisting force when manipulating it, and it works perfectly fine. I do with by pushing forward on the throttle with my thumb and pulling with my pinky as I move it. Doesn't take a lot, but the minor torsion force seems to do it for me.

If you want to make it even smoother, you can pack those bearings with grease before you install them onto the rods. They should have end caps to keep the ball bearings from falling out as well as to keep the grease in once they are packed. Any white lithium grease will work fine and it is normally only a few bucks at most hardware stores.

I have no clue if replacement parts are available, but if they are, I'm extremely confident you can repair it.

There is a screw on the bottom of the T16000 throttle to adjust the friction. So if your one issue is that it's sticky and doesn't give you precise control over the throttle you need to go look up that screw. I think you can reach the screw from the bottom plate when you push the throttle all the way forward. You'll see what looks like a useless empty hole suddenly is filled with the head of a screw. Turn that 1/4 or 1/2 turn in either direction and test if it's better or worse. I did this on mine years ago and it makes a world of difference. I had so much friction on mine that my attempt to push the throttle forward was actually overcoming the friction of the rubber pads and sliding the entire device across my desk.

I've fixed broken joysticks, gaming wheels, and so on before... They're easy to take apart and in a lot of cases the problem is easy to spot... if you want - take a few pictures after taking it apart ( when you separate the two haves, there may be additional parts for the throttle area, or buttons which may want to come out - you don't have to fully disassemble, just open it enough to take some photos and we can see if it is a simple problem... A lot of them use grease for lubricating the pots, so maybe it was conductive and you had a few hot days? Maybe the wire just got pulled slightly and the wire snapped - so you can take a simple meter with a continuity alarm and check each pin from the usb to the end point on the board and if one part stops then it is just the usb cord... it could also be a cap not getting enough power in order to jump start it... Although --- I had this problem on another, and it wasn't a problem. It was a wrong setting - some usb devices, when you plug them into different slots, their power settings reset so ensure the turn off to save power thing is disabled... additionally, you could be plugging the device into front headers which may not have enough juice - try a different one in the back, or plug it into a simple phone charger and see if the lights stay on - if it does then it is a power delivery issue. If it doesn't, then it is likely the caps, maybe an issue with the cable - you can wiggle it to see if it comes on / off... etc...

Make sure ya know how to lubricate these bearings, and when using 2 in the same rod, you have to offset the bearings a certain way. Also, before using them, it's a good idea to soak them in IPA to get the anticorrosion grease they are packaged in off before greasing them. But again, this is for a game controller, so it probably doesn't need as much prep as it would for what I'm used to using them for.

That's funny, I clicked onto this video because I wanted to let you know about those Etsy bearings.... Also, another solution is the Nyogel 767a that improves the TM T16k stick, also helps the throttle. And I agree, the TM FWCS is an excellent throttle, far better than its price tag implies. It has a nice variety of buttons, but mainly, it's the slew stick, and the rudder paddles that make it shine. However, I moved to the Virpil, and it IS better. While I knew about that bearing upgrade, I learned about it after I had already ordered the Virpil. So my question to you is this, the thing that makes the Virpil superior to the TM isnt all the buttons and such, they're just convenient. What makes the Virpil better can be measured when you're trying to do air refueling in DCS. You're trying to make your plane go from 306 to 307 knots to move up a little on that fuel boom. My experience with the TM is that if you manage it, you were lucky. With my Virpil, I can do it reliably. Air refueling with the FWCS, even after I nyogelled it and loosened the tensioners some was frustrating.

Can you operate this German panel without seeing the buttons since you said you can't see keyboards and other stuff when wearing on VR ?

Thanks man, it was a struggle to fly in formation with my t16000m from the start and I tried different lubes. It did not help. It was so from the beginning and I thought I was trash at flying. Now I can blame it on my hotas :D

Can the throttle /slider be mapped to power / collective for a heli-sim? ( X-plane 12)

I have TWCS throttle and real solution is damping grease, specially designed to combat stick-slip. Now I can move throttle by a fraction of a mm at a time without any problems. Those linear bearings look nice though.

mmm ideas. I'd love to 3d print a panel similar to this. and the mount like that gave me great ideas. Might have to sketch something up later.

I had the same problem, I made an external collective lever (but very sort) with its own friction via a big hand-nut. I mounted the head of the TWCS on top of the lever. It works very precise and "fluid" Now I want to rebuild my T16000 to springless but not sure how I want to make friction control. Thanks for the info about joysticks

So is the slider mod effectively a copy of the CoreHawk Slider? I put one of those in mine about a year ago and it's been great.

did this mod on day 2 of owning the twcs I used 3d printed ptfe lined bushings instead of the linear bearings (just a printed adapter with a 8mm ID PTFE tube inside reamed to precisely 8mm)

If you have the .stl file or equivalent for printing, consider checking your local area for a Maker-space. The people in the 'space almost always equipped with a 3D-printer, and are generally happy to help you out getting it printed.

Great Video... Just wish I could source the parts from somewhere - I don't have a 3D printer... Does anyone make and sell these plates at all? Maybe as a kit?

Have you had issues with the Twist Axis on the T16000m joystick itself? After 4 years, mine keeps the axis at max instead of 0 or neutral, I'd like to repair but some of the reddit guides are daunting.

Much simpler fix the the FCS Throttle stickiness: Nyogel 767A dampening grease. You remove the grease that is already on the rails and use this stuff, and you'll be amazed. This was a popular hotas for Elite Dangerous years ago, and I fixed a bunch of throttles for people with this stuff.

Wow, this model is new, it wasn’t there the last time I checked, it’s a copied design of the Etsy one (he was the first one to make it). In the file is basically the same magnet riser, I designed for myself...
