MCGU roll Axis smoothness

Hi everyone,

I recently bought a MCGU grip with a Gunfighter MK3 base, and it's overall an awesome piece of hardware.

However, when i tried different spring and cams configurations, i found out that moving the stick along the roll axis (so from left to right or right to left) is not perfectly smooth... At least nowhere near as smooth as the pitch axis.

It's even more noticeable when removing the grip and moving the mechanism with hands.

I tried everything that came into my mind to find where this is coming from but i'm running out of ideas...(bearing seems smooth by itslef, cam rotation aswell, but as soon as everything is put back together, it stops being smooth)

Any advice ?

Thanks for the help !

Have you checked this video? Make sure the cam is perfectly aligned with the ball bearing that rolls on it; also make sure the bolt/nut securing the cam are not too loose, nor too tight.
