A320 simulator sidestick Q&A

The sidestick feels slightly loose, like it is not firmly secured.

Remove the rubber gaiter. There are four screws located in the recessed groove on the sidestick that secure the rubber gaiter — simply tighten these screws to resolve the issue.

The PTT lever action feels rough and lacks smooth engagement.

This is caused by minor spring displacement during transit. To resolve this, use a thin rod to gently shift the spring left and right while simultaneously pressing the PTT lever. Adjust until the smoothest actuation feel is achieved.

The AP button is not recognized after connecting to the MOZA AB9 base.

This issue is caused by a firmware update to the MOZA AB9 base. Please refer to the applicable scenario below:

Orders placed before March 2026: MOZA hasn't updated firmware and the sidestick firmware also had not yet been updated . Units from this period are only compatible with MOZA AB9 firmware version V1.1.1.46 or earlier.

Orders placed after March 2026: We have since released a compatibility update for the sidestick. Units from this period are fully compatible with the latest MOZA firmware.
