I'm having the same problem as well:( Where can you get the proper lubricant? I'm also have an additional problem with one of my u360's (the magnet does not seem to be balanced magnetically). |

Teflon silicone does not. For the magnetic balance issue, is the magnet sitting flush? Taking a random stab at it because I've had this happen... The magnetic balance issue could be that it's physically pivoted... that can happen when you use a flathead screwdriver to hold the shafe in place while tightening the ball/bat onto the shaft. The screwdriver can dig and twist up some of the shaft so that the magnet won't sit flush. What I did was sand down the ends just a bit before sitting the magnet back onto the joystick. |

No, the shaft is in good shape as is the magnet. I've actually always had a calibration issue (having to always re-calibrate it) but I thought it was just normal until I started using my player 2 stick more. Where do you buy the lube at? |

Not cheap... but it's something you likely won't need to buy again. 8) http://www.neelyindustries.com/p-1099-molykote-44-high-temperature-medium-consistency-grease-53-oz-150-g-tube.aspx |

I was thinking about buying a U360 for my P1 stick, but given that I'm not very handy, I'm now reconsidering it. Maybe I'll wait until the model has been perfected. |
