Got a Wingman Warrior that I want to hack only for the spinner

I'm going to start hunting donw a usb ball mouse.

My thinking is that I will keep the original optical board from the wingman and just desolder the optical sensors from the mouse b oard and jumper the proper wires over.  Hopefully that should work.

I just wish to hell I knew how to remove the spinner from the joystick.  I can't firgure out how to remove the knob.

They're all over eBay for $4-5 shipped.  Here's one for $4 (but only a few minutes left):

Okay, got a cheap usb ball mouse at goodwilling.

The usb mouse optical parts have 3 and 2 wires on the transmitter/receiver.  The transmitter/rec eiver on the Warrior optical board have 3 and 4 wires on them.  I just gotta kind of figure out which is which and hopefully I can get wire them together.
