misterBee Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 I'll start posting updates for my newest baby here. The US version of this stick was a piece of crap. The giant balltop is just a big dpad, and the buttons are rubber membrane. Gutted it, removed most of the plastic from the inside, and installed a custom stick using hori parts and cherry switches. Now working on making some custom 24mm buttons... Disciple0fAnrky, Crucades and BullDancer 1 1 1 Quote
kikimaru024 Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 I had someone in a rival FGC who used one of these; never got to take a picture of it though. I wonder if she's still got it lying around. Quote
misterBee Posted February 3, 2018 Author Posted February 3, 2018 Since the original buttons are membrane gamepad trash, I decided to make my own. Gonna use cherry MX switches. Already printed custom mounts and glued them to the PCB support plate: Made some custom plungers too: Quote

DarkSakul Posted February 5, 2018 Posted February 5, 2018 Remind me of a a future project I am planning out. I going to try to make a PC Engine/Turbo Grafix game pad. It's pretty much similar to this mod on here http://www.mmmonkey.co.uk/nes-to-pc-engine-controller-mod/ Quote

What are you gonna use for the shell? Quote
misterBee Posted February 6, 2018 Author Posted February 6, 2018 Finished! Using the original PCB support plate to house the switches. Wires are routed through the bottom. Lots of modifications to the original plate to make everything fit. Custom 3D printed plungers with 3M Carbon Fiber Di-Noc: And some finished pics! Final shot with sick sticker by B-Side Label and nice thick rubber feet: Zx-Tole, KingTubb and Camacho 2 1 Quote
saikyostealthfart Posted February 6, 2018 Posted February 6, 2018 Nice job! Super simple / kiss / why didn't I think of that Any chance I could get a copy of the 3d file for the plungers? Did you use blender? Quote

PM me your e-mail and I'll send it to you! Quote
