There is a chance however that the wheel assembly is moving on the shaft.
The***that Thrustmaster provides with the wheel is not too great. When
you take the cover off to clean the pot try holding the shaft and see if you
can wriggle the wheel on the shaft.
Remember I am still talking about the GP1.
If the wheel moves then you may want to put in a larger diameter self
tapping screw.

sorry couldn't help it.
It sucks pig poop...
It angers me because I have been writing them forever for a replacement,
and begged them to change to a three-screw design.
Any engineer knows that you don't attach two circular parts with ONE
screw. You always use 3 in a tri-pod arrangement...

Actually, I modified my TM2 to have a second***holding the wheel to
the shaft. I don't think it made any improvement, as there wasn't that
much wheel-to-shaft play to begin with. The biggest problem is the fact
that the rear 'bushing' (where the pot is) doesn't really provide any
support for the shaft. The shaft is held almost entirely by the front
bushing, and thus some twisting (yaw & pitch) is inevitable.
Any engineer knows that you don't position a shaft with just one bushing!

The only reason I haven't done mine yet is I haven't figured out how get
around the switch wires to remove the wheel completely.
