Tip for improving New Competition Pro

Many people complain that the new compition pro, as now for sale in the retro stores moves too hard.
I think so too so thats why i screwed it open, to find out that the spring used in the joystick is too tight.
This can be improved bij removing the e-ring that holds the iron joystickbar in place.
By doing this the plastic surround Cylinder will pop up.
As you will see ther is a bigger cylinder and a narrow one, sticking out of the bigger one. the smaller one must be sawed off with an iron saw, so far that it becomes equal of hight with the bigger one. now put the iron joystick back trough the cylinder and replace the E-ring.
Mount the cap with the screws back on but be careful not to have any wires squeezed, in for instance the screwholes (as i had ) or the side covers.

Now turn the screws back in and you will feel that the tension is much better.
I tested it and it is very much improved, my idea.

Beware, cut off fingers is your own risk!! :))
