Unfortunately I didn't get an answer to my question on how that yoke behaves when operated with one hand.

Hi Kosta,Thanks for your reply. It helps a lot to know I am not the only one who had experienced this.I was able to improve on the situation a bit to mix the new lubricant I got with the one I used before. I still want to replace my yoke but at least it is usable for now. I am very interested in your experiences with the PFC yoke so could you please let us know how it is?Regards,Allard.

Hi,WRT to the lubricant, CH doesn't recommend any. Eventually they all seem to soften the plastic. On the up side, the Eclipse uses different materials for the shaft and shaft bushings and the "sticktion" at center elevator is essentialy gone without lubrication. With the hat on the left now, one-handed operation isn't usually any problem.Best regards,- BobThe StickWorkshttp://www.stickworks.com

Thanks Bob for your reply.After not using the yoke for quite some time I noticed that the yoke wasn't as smooth as I remembered. Lubrication seemed to help at the time. However, the specific stickiness that occurs when used with only one hand wasn't solved and might have become worse. Also, my flying technique might have changed so that have only one hand on the yoke now during landing, which makes the problem more noticable.Regards,Allard.
