où puis-je acheter et changer la grosse pièce blanche au centre ?
Demandez peut-être à Thrustmaster. Sinon, je ne peux malheureusement pas vous aider davantage.

Has anyone ever regreased this joystick?
i have, it didn’t solve my jittering problem entirely, but it squeaks less. used silicone lubricant, spray type. applied liberally at the part where you have to regrease, sprayed in the holes and springs.
I’m having terrible issues with jitter in my negative-Y direction (“pulling up” in a craft). This is a brand new joystick, and I basically can’t chase enemies in dogfights because of the unreliability of my ability to pull up.
Messing with the spring didn’t really help — does anyone have additional advice for this or other things I can try to fix this?
Same issue as Evan, no luck fixing it at all -.-
Same issue here as well. After tens of hours of use it is starting now to not properly respond, particularly when I pull it toward me (pointing up with the aircraft muzzle). I’ve been using it on Star Wars Squadrons and I regulated the wheel (the one on the base side) so that the stick opposed less resistance possible, because dogfights in the game require frequent sudden changes of direction (at expense of my wrist). It has worked fine for many hours. Now this issue.
If greasing your stick did not fix anything, you might want to look at the four anchor screws that are the base of the joystick (white resistance housing unit). Two of the post were broken off from the shell which is causing the stick to tilt over and lean.
