wico catalog
g1275:
I am thinking about ordering the following Universal STC Joystick from wico http://www.wicothesource.com/new2/pages/page88.htm.
Has anyone tried one of these? What is the difference between microswitches with 4.8mm .187" terminals and 6.3mm .250" terminals. Are these just like the old ball top joysticks with the chrome handles or are these things completely different?
If these arent the same old style chrome handled joysticks where can i find some in blue?
Knievel:
Great sticks, do a search for omni-stik and you find lots of info.
You can pick them up over at http://www.groovygamegear.com/which is a more reliable, friendly source. :)
The different microswitches are to adapt to whatever size terminals you are using in your machine...the .187" terminals are normally used for joysticks.

Good luck ordering from Wico the Source (of backorders and double billing). ::)

Wico is a joke of a company. I placed one order with Wico. The order was missing items, had defective items, they sent the wrong replacements, they overcharged me for shipping and they never made it right. And I could go on...

The more I look at wico the more i've decided not to go with them.
I like http://www.groovygamegear.com/, they have many great products, and i like the retro edition but it's $45!
What is the cheapest place to get the "retro edition" type joysticks, and where can i find them in blue.
