I found this usefull, tought it could help someone else, since almost joysticks must have some kind of potentiometers.

Check the video

Nice video, but you can get even better results if you open the potentiometer and clean it from dust and graphite debris.

Second important thing for the longetivity of our joysticks is to keep them well lubricated with silicon grease.
Don't use machine grease or oil because it will disolve plastic !!!
