| Reverse Button for Defender/Stargate? |

How do you guys that have made these types of CPs mount them? From what I can tell, you would end up running into your joystick base. Do you just put it as close as you can or is there a trick that your using? I'm trying to figure out how to mount next to a T-Stick Plus. |

The base on the T-stik is small enough that you should be OK just putting the button as close as you can get it. I built my own using a 8-way Wico clone, and just cut off one corner of the base with a Dremel tool to allow the button to get closer to the stick. My reverse button is actually a little closer to the stick than the factory ones were, which feels better to me. |

Can't speak for a T-Stick but I made my defender panel using a Happs Ultimate and had no problem. The base wasn't so big that it got in the way. |

Hmm.. maybe my measurements are off. The only way I could see how close the button is supposed to be to the joy was to check the distances on the CPO. |

If you want to make a CP for Defender that is compatible with a multitude of games I suggest using the Multi Williams. It plays Defender (and all the other Williams games) with 8 way joysticks increasing the compatibility of the CP with many of MAME's games and it's a lovely overlay for williams fans it can be found here : http://localarcade.com/4images/details.php?image_id=231&mode=search cutting template = no measuring Can you dig it ?
