On the CX2 the left stick moves up and down for speed and there is a slight ratchet sound when pushing up or down. I would like more ratchet! When I move the left stick right and left it can sometimes move down or up by mistake very easily. My old Futaba controller has more ratchet and seems nice.Is there anyway to adjust for ratchet on the CX2 controller?

I have the same problem with mine... The only thing you have to do is take out the 4 screws on the back of your controller and tighten down the little metal tab (rachet). You can try just giving it a few turns on the set screw, or you may have to take it off and bend it a little bit.
The only problem with this is that it will wear the notches on the thumbstick gear inside the controller. E-flite just has a bad design in this aspect because the notches arent cut very deeply to prolong wearing. So, no matter what you do, this controller will never feel like your Futaba. It just isn't made the same way... I hope this helps...
