Trackball brands/models that don't take up stupid amounts of space under the CP?

[branded]

Hi Peeps,

Can anyone recommend decent trackballs that don't take up so much space under the CP?

Thanks!

Those 2 things are pretty much exclusive -- In order to perform decently they need good bearings and decent sized optical wheels and a proper size ball - which means they need a good amount of space inside the case so take up quite a bit of room.  Perhaps take a look at the layout of your Control panel and eliminate other pieces to make room for it ( ie. don't try to make the Control panel have every part to run every game since each extra piece means less space for others )   

A 4-player layout with 8 buttons for players 1 and 2 and 4 buttons for players 3 and 4 and 8 admin buttons doesn't leave a lot of space to add a trackball, spinner(s), etc. even on an aircraft carrier size panel

I love Kensington Trackballs for computing. If you want space underneath, I guess you could use the expert model on top. It has a somewhat flat form factor.

Happ used to sell a 1.5” trackball, but it looks like they don’t seek it anymore. They do have a 2.25” one though.
