RAM Controls

I had one of those yoke interfaces that I got for $75 from a KLOV member via PM years back.
Got a cab all set up with a real yoke....and MAME was a huge let down in how it played.  Really squirrely.
Sold it all on ebay.  which left me with the impression that Star Wars requires the real deal to be enjoyable.

All that said, I understand why people are still so tempted to fall for these scams.  I have quite a few of those parts and they are really, really good parts.  I don't buy for one minute that the guy actually manufactured them.  He had to have found a cache of NOS parts somewhere.  The Major Havoc roller, for instance, is awesome.  As long as people want those Atari vector era parts these scams are going to keep coming back.

It requires calibrating. http://www.aaarpinball.com/ASW/ASW.htm Probably every game you use a yoke for needs it.

Yah i went thru that from the manual when I refurbed the yoke and installed new pots and gears.

Doesn't fix the crappy gameplay emulation of MAME though.

UPDATE Oct-  The Ultimarc A-Pac will work as an alternative.  The Star Wars yoke pots are recognized by the A-Pac as the Joystick X and Y Axis.  You'll need to build a proper connector to plug n play with the yoke.

FWIW this piece of work has re-surfaced on KLOV as "Level99" ... selling harnesses and other various RAM parts.  Based out of Rancho Cucamonga.  KLOV has all the details.
