Finger slipping on sticks controller
 
Does anyone else have this issue? I find I have to readjust almost once a lap because my throttle finger is slipping (KO Esprit IV). This seems to get worse the older I get....:woot: It's got so bad I've been looking at steer wheel, but am nowhere near as fast when I back to back on VRC.
The spikes on the controller are good.

Try something like sugru tips to the sticks.
Can shape them to suit. And with a bit of lateral thought, give them some texture too.

Can experiment several times, just peel the old stuff off if it's wrong.

I found this, the ko is quite a thin radio, after years of using it I swapped to the sanwa partly due to the ko being so thin. you could try silicon tube on the sticks makes the top of the stick much larger......looks a little less like something from a torture dungeon :woot::D

Years ago i raced with a couple of people that had got little foam tubes round the sticks rather than silicon but would give the same effect i think and make it bigger/gripper

Thanks for the ideas guys. Still having a play with a wheel and getting more comfortable with it so could be an alternative.

Well, bought an M12 wheel. My testing with an MT4S showed i wasn't as slow as i thought i may be and because i didn't have to keep re-adjusting i was actually more consistent!
