| 8 way joysticks with easy diagonals |

Thanks for the suggestions, I appreciate it. :) Has anyone tired both the 32's and the zippyys and found any difference? Or the paradise LEDs which seem to be another 32 copy. They are listed as being pretty much the same joystick, so I don't want to pay twice as much for nothing, but if they are much better quality I will. I did see those conversion kit switches and I thought I might try that, both for the stick I order and with the supers to see what I like the most. I think the problem with the competition I have is the e-switches. I saw another post complaining about the same thing, AND two of the four switches have broken without a ton of use. |

If you want easy-to-hit diagonals, you should be using a square restrictor. There's never any question if you're hitting it or not. --- End quote --- Is that why guys have such trouble? |

A happ competition with a versa ball 2 works good. |

I agree that a square restrictor helps for hitting the diagonals although I prefer the fluidness of a round restrictor. you can also experiment with octagon restrictors if you try something like a Sanwa JLF. You also asked if anyone else had opinions on the Zippyys- I installed 2 of them in a customers machine (for 4-way with the plus restrictor shaved to a diamond) but I felt they were sloppy. |

You shouldn't be "riding the restrictor" anyway, but I can't stand the octagonal JLF restrictor, it's really clunky, and well... restrictive. It's hard not to ride it because the diagonal engage zones are way too small. |
