Hello!
I got my Gladiator NXT (premium, right handed) this week.
While I love this stick already, I'm one of those filthy peasants who finds the damping effect of the factory grease a little bit too heavy.
I tried to do my homework about what exact grease is it and what to change it to, but I found confusing information.
After some serious hours of searching I came to a conclusion of that earlier VKB used Nyogel 767A on these sticks but recently its changed to something heavier that is a factory secret. Am I right? I have no problem with that, I just would like to know if I change the grease to 767A will I get some lighter damping? I just ask because I dont want to invest some (not so cheap) grease if I get the same outcome.
So in short terms:
Is 767A have lighter damping effect than the current one on my stick?

Re: Gladiator NXT grease too damp
Over time, the parts will wear in and the lubrication will lose its "heavy" effect a little. Therefore, I advise you to take your time and use the joystick as it is.

Re: Gladiator NXT grease too damp
Yes, the grease used on the NXT is definitely more viscous than 767A; it's the same manufacturer though, Nye.
