Hey! I have a Honeycomb Alpha flight yoke and its getting kind of jutty and almost sticky. It’s in need of lubricant but I don’t want to damage my yoke by putting the wrong thing or doing it the wrong way. I tried contacting Honeycomb but they said to consult forums. Let me know if there’s a specific lubricant I should buy and/or if there’s a specific way to put it. Thanks!

Do a little research on that and see if it might make sense for what you are looking to do.
I used it on my old Thrustmaster HOTAS throttle to good effect.
I found this video to see what the inside looks like. There is a bit of a problem because there are two rails on the side where the yoke actually slides on, so without taking it apart the only thing I would be lubricating is the nonstructural part where the rod goes into the actual yoke in the front, which I doubt that would make a huge difference. With that in mind, does the lubricant really matter? I mean that if I didn’t take it apart and just oiled the little contact point in the front (second pic), knowing that there’s no mechanics on that part does the type of lubricant matter?
