| What joystick is this? [SOLVED] |
| (1/1) |

This was on a Tron CPO I acquired recently, anyone shed any light on it? Up for grabs if anyone's interested, along with a Tron CPO (just the metal panel, no parts)... |

You left out the most important part, the top. Is there a hole on the top or no? That is a rare Wico bat-handle with a metal adapter plate for using it on Midway cabs. They usually have a button on top. Actually, the button is a long plastic stick and at the bottom, below the e-clip there is a plastic disc attached. This disc would push a 5th leaf switch. I don't see that extra switch nor any evidence that the base had it. So... if the bat has a hole, then it's been inserted into the wrong base. If it doesn't have a hole, then I guess you have a complete, and rare, Wico bat-handle joystick with adapter*. *That adapter should also be usable on Pacs, Galaga, etc and with any standard joystick with the matching bolt hole spacing. |

Hey RayB, Was half asleep as usual. Yes, the hole is there but no button/plastic stick. Would be interesting to see a complete unit and where the 5th leaf would mount. Thanks for the info my man. |
