BM3 Vintage 'bump' in Y axis

Hello,
The past couple of days my Black Mamba MK3 vintage seems to have developed a bum on the Y axis. It feels like there's a bump on the cam or roller thing, but it doesn't look like there is. It's much more pronounced if I use the stick aggressively or with wide throws. Everything still works fine, but it's really annoying and I miss the buttery smoothness!


Any on advice on what to do, or where to look? If feels like there's an obstruction or somethng somewhere, but I've taken it apart and can't see anything obvious.

Thanks

Hello Harrius,

I believe I have just replied to your email with the same complaint. If so, let's continue troubleshooting via email and then I will publish a result here as it could be useful for other customers.

Best regards,
Eduard

It's unfortunate I've received no further support about this problem.

Dear Harrius.
Сould you please send VKB FSC a joystick for checking? I got your Mamba's photos, but didn't find cause of the problem. VKB have already sent VKB FCS some spare parts for Mamba.

Hi, sorry for the delay in getting back to you on this, I've been away. I've actually resolved the problem now. It was a problem with the Warthog adapter and not the gimbal.
