Do Happ P360's feel too close to anybody?
« on: July 02, 2005, 12:16:05 pm »
When I first bought my Happ's P360s I thought they felt too stiff, so I bought Happ's Supers, took out the springs, and put them inside my P360s.  Now after using the arcade for about a year the joysticks feel too loose now!

So, I'm wondering what everybody else thinks and if I should take out the springs again use the original P360 springs...

I would give that a try, but I love P360s for their stiffness.  If you don't like it, you can always switch back.

I'm not sure which I prefer because I was never big into arcades before I built my cabinet.  The P360 spring is definitely stiff, but I'm not sure if its too stiff for me.  When I use the Super's spring inside my P360 they feel too loose so it seems like I can't win either way.  Maybe I just have to get used to the stiffness of the original spring?

What does everybody else prefer?  Does everybody like the stiffness of the P360s?

I like the stiff sping.  It does loosen up a little with lots of play.

I prefer loose springs like the ones in Japanese joysticks.  I thought my P360s were too stiff when they were new.  But they are nice and loose now after a lot of use.
