| 4-way/8-way switching joysticks? |
| (1/2) > >> |
| jspicher:
Hey guys, l've seen some youtube videos of people who have joysticks on their cabinets that can be changed from 4-way to 8-way and back without having to open the CP and adjust the restricter plate; l think you pull up on the joystick and twist maybe? Does anyone know where l can get one of these, and do they work well enough? |

http://ultimarc.com/controls.html I think you are referring to the Magstick from Ultimarc. I have seen many mixed reviews on them. I decided to just go with something else. |

more specifically you would want the magstick plus which allows the lift and twist switching. with the standard magstick, you need to open and activate a switch. now there is the servo switching model http://www.ultimarc.com/servostik.html I personally prefer a round gate for my 8-way (not crazy about the square 8way gate) so I have my left stick with a round gate and my right stick with the switchable square gate. |

I bought two Magsticks about 6 years ago and both are still going strong after lots pulling and twisting! :laugh2: That sounded bad, but still true! |
| Mental:
MagStiks are pretty nice. My only big complaint is that switching is a little tricky and guests can never figure it out on their own. If you want to get fancy, Ultimarc now has their Servo-Stik (modded JLW) that will switch automatically for you. |
