Wireless, battery powered control panel?

Lilwolf:

you might.  

Find the resistence between the center post of the pot and one of the other sides.  It will change by some range.  

If this is around 5k, your fine.  If its 100k, you might kinda get it to work.  Calibration then see how much detail you lost....

I actually bought two Logitech Cordless Rumblepads explicitly for an arcade panel (right now my MAME box is on my TV, don't have a spare or the funds for a second monitor/TV).  Ran out of steam when my "dedicated arcade coffee table" idea died (real wood costs a bunch...), but I've restarted the "cheapo MDF control panel in/on a trunk" idea, so maybe I'll have news in a couple weeks or so.

i am glad to see some activity on this...  *please* keep us posted.  i am very busy with wedding plans at the moment or i would try to contribute more.  for those interested, you can pick up these controllers very cheap on ebay.  also, does anyone know of a program which allows the user to define a specified controller button as a shift key.  i actually think the original wingman software that came with the controller allows this but i have never used it.  also, i am sure it would only work with logitech controllers and i am looking for something a little more universal.  are there any performance impact for these software solutions?
