I purchased some used Happ Trackballs... and I'm wondering if I could use the spinner portion and the Optic sensor from the trackball to a create a rotary joystick out of my 8 way joysticks?
I mean, since the joystick handle already "spins"... could I attach the spinner from the trackball and the sensor to the bottom of the joystick post to capture the spinning and then wire the optic sensor to my optipac?
Can this be done? Has anyone done this? If so, is there a write-up on how to do this?
Thanks!
