I think most regular users of the Warthog would never need to grease their stick so its a non issue! AND DONT EVER USE WD40 NEAR ELECTRONICS LOL!!!! Actually don't use it at all.. _________________________ www.DCS-Mercenaries.com A casual west coast Black Shark/A-10C Squadron always looking for extra pilots and good times!

Wrecking Crew Smooth Operator Senior Member Registered: 03/04/07 Posts: 3171 Loc: Colorado	I hear WD40 will remove spray paint from cars... I have two Warthogs and both get used a lot, the one on my machine is getting prolly +15 hours a week since November 2010. No issues, except a very slight twang from the center spring on my stick that I sometimes notice. Maybe I should grease it... but it would be a big deal to disassemble my flight deck... Next week I should pick up my Procrastinator's Club card - I'll grease it right after that. If you are flying the A-10C then the Warthog is the stick to have. WC
