Hi all,

Before I ship my Yoke in for warranty, I wanted to run the problem by you folks to see if there is a fix.

I have the USB Ch Products Flight Sim Yoke- 3 Lever.

The Right Bottom attachment screw seems to be just about frozen and will not tighten or loosen anymore, and is stuck in the same position.

You can turn it each way, but to do so takes a large amount of force, and it will not tighten.

Has anyone else experienced this? I've had the Yoke since March, 2002, so It is still under Warranty.

Everything works 100% Great on the Yoke, except I can't screw it onto my desk anymore.

Thanks in Advance,
Sonar5
Joe

It's siezed or stripped, or maybe both. Short of opening the unit up and replaceing the nut that is mounted in the case there really is nothing you can do. I DO NOT RECOMMEND OPENING THE UNIT UP.

Thanks Michael,

You folks did great fixing my Pedals last September, so I have no plans on opening up the Yoke. I've read enough stories on those.

I need to run to Escondido next week, so I may drop the unit off instead of shipping it this time, since I live in Temecula.

Thanks for the Quick reply.

Best Regards,
Joe
