    Check your Jumper and Radiomaster stick ends for a grub screw before you break them! The grub screw is in the top center of the stick. Loosen it before you unscrew the stick end!

The grandmasters work very well for me since i hybrid and my indexes fit perfectly in that little ridge. Now i can focus on racing better with the added control and confidence with my stick ends~

    seriously liking these ones you picked, i'm ultra hybrid pinch, and both hands are slightly different, my left hand is mostly thumb with index just there for emotional support, but my roll and pitch is more pure hybrid. (hybrid being thumb on top like a pure thumber but with index finger in constant fixed contact with stick) i did try bigger rounder sticks but they made the interface vague, the narrower heads are not liable to be vague about when you are at centre.

    Just got the standard cylinder ones today and they are by far the best stick ends I've ever used. They kinda feel like those little prickly things that get stuck on your pants when you walk through the woods. Not sure how long they will stay nice and sharp since they are made out of some type of plastic but they are good enough to consider a disposable item and just replace them if they lose their bite in a few months.

    I use TBS honey sticks on my tx16s. I am fairly new to fpv and was just using stock until my buddy gave me these (he preferred the 533 sticks). I was a thumber until I put these on. Now I Hybrid and I love that my finger gets under the ball/knob.
    I instantly had more throttle control and pitch control yaw and roll - I lost a little snappiness. Over all - switching sticks and changing from thumb to hybrid greatly improved my skills.
    my hands are XL size and I use tx16s. Biggest issue I have with hybrid is not bumping switches with my finger. Still can’t finger out where to put my other 3 fingers (what he said).

    I'm not expecting you to highlight any TBS gear but I went through a bunch of different stick ends until I got the TBS Crown Jewels and I find them to be the best ends for a hybrid grip. That scalloped side is perfect for resting your index finger making them very ergonomic and also helps with orienting your fingers so you always have the same grip. Highly recommend them. They are a bit sharp on top but nothing like the ag01 stick ends.

    Great info Joshua really appreciate it. I just received the Radiomaster TX16S Max today. I am having an issue in that the stick ends are really short. I can screw them out to a lenght however there seems to be no way to actually lock them at that length. Am I missing something? The JR sticks had a grub screw in the middle that you lock it in with and the Taranis X9D had a lock screw that you screwed up the shaft to lock the stick length.
    I know I could just use an M4 nut from my junk box but for a $299.99 radio I would have thought that Radiomaster could have added colour coded lock nuts!!!

    off hand do you know what the size would be to fit the dji fpv controller V1? The black one.

    I wonder if anyone has experimented with tab or paddle shaped stick ends for pinchers? I’m imagining a thin, slightly curved surface that would fit the contours of your fingers.

      Most times, he’s about high value content - and once in a while, a dumbing down for (some of) the audience..

    The best thumb ends are from the Jyu Hornet 2 Radio. The Drone is sh*t but the stick ends are so good.

    I own an tried the original Five33 rip sticks and the MCK version. I prefer the MCKs, I’m a hybrid pincher using a Mambo radio.

    Chose the 533 Rip Sticks, and they felt great from the first flight!
