since I replace my joystick, I guess I made a nice comparison photos for references

seems like Qanba's spring is more compressed when assembled due to bigger distance from the pivot bowl and spring (thicker plastic base than sanwa?) maybe that's why it feels harder
the only problem I have with it is Qanba becomes squeaky maybe since they don't use delrin or teflon for the pivot part, instead they use lightly structured plastic, lightly structured so it has less contact surface, and so the grease can rest in between.
