Rotary adapter for Happ/Midway 49-way Joystick
<< < (2/25) > >>
ddockery:
I'd be interested if the price is reasonable.  Does i give a decent clicking feel when you rotate?

     -Could you post the below-panel depth of the stick with the adapter mounted?

I'll take the measurements when I get home.

    -Any idea what the end cost might be?
Not yet, the prototype was a freebie, now I need to get an idea on what the overall costs are going to be.  I'm not sure if I should just sell the sleeve adapter and provide a how-to, or sell the complete unit.  I was hoping to get an idea of interest because this will probably be the deciding factor for me.  The idea of soldering 12 wires onto the switches 1000 times is a bit frightening.

    -Does it give a decent clicking feel when you rotate?
It does, it is the exact switch used in the happ 12-way ikarii style.  Each of the positions has a 'stop' so it clicks at each position.

If I had to guess, I think $20 would be doable for a complete assembly.  Any more than that and I t hink people would just say skip it.  Even if it was just a kit that youhad to solder yourself, I think $20 would be reasonable...at the most.

Yeah, I'd say $20 as well, maybe $35 for two would hit me perfectly.  I don't mind soldering at all, either.  The magic numbers, I guess.  Maybe that's what first attracted me to RandyT's encoders?  He picked the magic numbers.  I'm dreaming of a stick that can do everything.
