  • I have this idea to create an easy to print friction-based Cyclic mod for the X56 Hotas to be used with helicopters. I prototyped some of the parts separately and this is the first implementation, using only two of the four dampeners.
    Parts are very easy to print, two part ring for the stick, and then for each of the four dampeners, one piston, one cylinder and one ball joint ending that goes into the hotas attaching points. Total 14 parts only.
    You'll need lube, 4.5x2 sized O-rings and a couple of M3 botl and screw to keep the ring in place. Mounting it is quite fast, and you can take it down if you want to go back to regular spring centered stick.
    You can notice that even with only two of the four dampeners, it works like a charm, the ball joints have zero wobble, and the only concern is the sawing sound of the pistons due the layered nature of 3D printing (I'm pretty sure that I can print the cylinder and pistons horizontal instead of vertical to get rid of that).
    To get it quickly protyped, I printed 0,2 layer size which is too much for preccision parts like this, but yet it works amazingly well!! The thing keeps in place without wobble and you can actuate on the cyclic with a nice amount of force required, but not too much.

      You should be able to change springs easily, the X56 comes with different tensions. I was using the softer one but for helis recentering is not adecuate... so I created this.

      I'm sorry but I don't print on demand... but surely you could find someone in Brazil who does :)
