With how much the LS 56 lever is loved here, I figure you're the right guys to ask.
I bought the LS 56 with some accessories because I just always tought the sanwas were kinda shit for tekken. So I installed the LS 56 and an octo gateand short throw mod. I must say, in terms of missed inputs it's pretty ace. Still miss the occasional UF but everything else is cool, and ff motions feel more natural.
However, the squeaking is horrendous and distracting. as you can see in the video it mainly happens on db and d directions, and does not happen when I press down on the stick. It is caused by the acuator movement against the gate.
I am wondering if there's any way to correct this, it also kiiiinda happens with the square gate but less pronounced, so the gate is not the culprit. It's too bad, since I do enjoy the stick a lot but this is just too annoying, I might go back to the sanwa because of that. Any idea?
