| Omni-stick Basic opinions? |

| sWampy:
I was wanting opinions on omni-stick basic. I can't seem to find any reviews of these sticks. I'm looking for 4/8 way switchable joystick that can mount in the same foot print of my existing happs super sticks. I'm really wondering how easy it was to switch these between 4 and 8 way mode. |

They look like they could only be installed on an metal CP... unless it would be okay to bury the rubber gromet under wood. |

. I'll save the opinions for someone else, but without a mounting plate, these do present a small challenge in a wood panel. Typically, one would need to create a recess on the underside to accommodate the dome at the base of the stick. Alternatively, you could use spacers and long hardware, but this could unacceptably lower the height of the stick. Would there be interest in a small mounting plate for these? If it was just a lasered sheet metal part, with no pem studs, I could probably sell them pre-mounted to the stick for an extra $6 each. And they are not too hard to switch at all, as long as you have access to the underside. RandyT |

Do you have to take the joy stick apart, turn a knob, flip a restrictor plate? I'm still torn between 49 way, omni-stick, e-stick, j-stick, t-stick, etc. |
