Or any joystick I suppose. I think the gimbal on my stick is crudded up because it sort of jerks when I move it right to left/left to right.  I cleaned it a month ago. I used alchohol based fluid and cotton swabs.
(Q tips) Then I put a very tiny amount of grease in the gimbal socket and it worked much better for a few weeks. But grease just attracts dust. Not so good now. Could any of you folks advise me to a better way to fix this?  :)
