Nyogel 767A Synthetic Damping Grease
The factory lubricant exhibits poor shear stability and high static friction, causing the gimbal to 'stick' during small adjustments. Nyogel 767A is a high-viscosity synthetic hydrocarbon grease designed specifically to provide consistent damping and eliminate the stick-slip phenomenon. Applying this to the gimbal ball and socket restores smooth, high-resolution movement.

PTFE (Teflon) Replacement O-Ring
The stock internal rubber O-ring creates significant drag against the plastic gimbal surfaces, particularly when the factory grease dries. A PTFE/Teflon O-ring has a significantly lower coefficient of friction and does not bind against the POM plastic of the gimbal. This hardware change ensures that the mechanical resistance remains constant regardless of the movement speed.

Warthog Extension Kit / Lightweight Spring Set
The heavy factory main spring increases the normal force on the friction surfaces, which proportionally increases the frictional force (F=ΞN). Installing a lightweight spring kit or a physical stick extension reduces the effective force required to overcome stiction through mechanical leverage. This modification allows the user to achieve finer control by operating in a lower-tension mechanical regime.
