I am a 'pinch style' ( thumb and index finger ) flier using a Tx tray and just bought myself a set of 40mm long stick extensions. I would like to hear from other using a similar setup as to what overall stick length do they feel comfortable with as mine with the extensions installed presently measure approx. 59mm from the top of the gimbals and seems just a bit too long for me.

I pinch too, and shorter is better for me. The stick has less distance to travel.

All depends on how long your fingers are. I have short fingers and run my sticks as short as possible.

Call me "CrabMan",, as a pincer, I'm not fond of extensions.

Thanks for your comments guys, and based on the responses received I have shortened the sticks to 43mm.

Go with what feels best, there is no "set measurement" for this to be at. It has to feel right for you, and only you.

43mm was a little long for me.... I found that 42.750mm to be perfect.

I have mine bottomed out with maximum tension.

Long and loose for me.

Well as Bunky suggested it all depends on the particular individual, as now we know different strokes for different folks. Short sticks or loose springs do not work for me.
