Does anyone know the difference in weight going with the dual stick  

option v.s. the single stick?

Yes. Two sticks weigh approximately twice as much  as one stick. (grin)

  

 Non-smart-ass answer: The leverage seems about the  same to me given the length of the stick(s) and theit pivot points. My dual  stick linkage doesn't feel like it adds any significant resistance in and of  itself. They are probably very similar.

7.1 vs. 2.7 pounds for a difference of 4.4



For the Y I weighed three parts: the torque tube, the Y stick and the rear

support bearing 6B17-3.



For the dual sticks I weighed the torque tube, support bearing, the two

sticks, the control connection tube, the threaded rods, the three aluminum

plates, the rod ends, the extruded L's and the hardware.

Oh THAT WEIGHT!  I thought the question was about the feel of resistance to movement. My bad.

Well, I was interested in weight wrt Gross Weight, but both pieces  

info are useful.

Thanks for the responses.
