I see that they use microswitches.  I wanted the ones with leaf switches.  Thanks anyway.

I love that style. Don't need any at the moment, but those are good sticks people.

Paigeoliver (or whomever can answer this question),

Are these suitable for under 3/4" wood or a metal panel?

Thanks,
-Dweebs

chips4sle,

Can you measure the length of the handles (both red and black) and post the information please.

Appreciate it.

Those look like the shorter, 3.5" shafts, not the 4" Robotron sized ones.

That is actually personal preference.
The shorter sticks will bottom mount, but be a little short for most people.
The longer sticks will bottom mount fine, but the ball on them travels farther horizontally because of the extra stick length.

I split the difference on mine, and routed the shorter sticks in 3/8" on the bottom of my panels.
That gives you 3/8" longer sticks above the panel (vs. the 1/2" of the truly longer sticks), but keeps the arc that the stick travels at the shorter stick diameter.

Paige:  You're the poster who's always championing the Wico rubber grommet sticks with microswitches, right?  And if you are, are these the sticks you're referring to?

EDIT:  Paige gave me the answer I was hoping for (THANKS!).

Chips:  PM sent.

Can these be converted to 4 way use or are they strictly 8 way?

Thx,

Thanks.

I would also like to repeat the question of if one could save money by purchasing two of the joysticks?
If so, can you give a specific price for two shipped.

Thanks,
-Jody
