Brake Lever Activates during Hard X and Y Axis movements

Hello,

Hardware: Gunfighter Mk II with MCG Pro Joystick
Cams and Springs: #10 Cam and #20 Springs
Software: Firmware 1.981 with 0.90.93 VKB Device Config

Issue: The Brake Lever will activate when I pull the joystick in the X and Y axis. It's not game breaking but it is annoying to hear the brakes activate randomly on certain planes :).

Is this a software issue or hardware?

I have included a link to a video that shows the issue, as well as the axes config.

Thank you kindly,

Jesse

PS: I did not see this show up in the forum the first time so this is the second attempt. If it is repeated, I apologize.

Very similar to the floating (bad) contact of the grip and base. Try to wipe the contact area with alcohol and install the grip more tightly. No clearance to the stock.

Thank you kindly that's all that was required. Guess I should have tried that the first time :|.

Thanks again Ron61!
