  • I want to build my own arcade controls!
For your information, there are currently two used WWK00003 Aim-n-Fire controllers available on eBay:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/VERY-RARE-Rotary-Arcade-Joystick-With-FIRE-Button-WORKING-/331853729577?hash=item4d44060f29:g:yyUAAOSwfZhXM2y3

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dial-Red-Top-Spinner-White-Arrow-Unknown-Joystick-Arcade-USED-Not-Tested-2630-/282055564024?hash=item41abd25af8:g:vyIAAOSwdj9XT1sm

These controllers are often misidentified as, "rotary joystick," "spinner joystick," or, "unknown joystick."

I bought an Aim-n-Fire controller recently, and I'm wondering how I am supposed to install it.  The diagram in the Tin Star owner's manual seems to indicate that there is a pin holding the main knob to the joystick shaft, but there seems to be no pin in my controller when I look through the hole to the other side.  Do any of you have any advice on how to install the Aim-n-Fire controller?

Front Line uses the same controller.   ;D

Pg 21+22 of the manual here describes the pin as a "Roll Pin". (Item 2)



It appears that you are either looking through the hollow pin or it is missing.
