Has anyone used the HAPP/IL SWITCHABLE 4 - 8 WAY Joystick ( T-Stick )?
« on: November 28, 2005, 03:53:28 pm »
Are these things literally the same as T-sticks?  Or are they just similar?  Has anyone tried them.  How are they compared to an Ultimate?

Is the bolt spacing the same as other happs sticks?

Thanks,
Stobe

They're the same as T-sticks. And no, the bolt spacing isn't the same, although the footprint is smaller.

Brophog, this isn't clear.  Will the screw holes on these line up with screw holes on other Happ sticks?

Seems pretty clear to me.

Brain fart, I guess, but I wasn't sure if you were answering his first or last question.  Now I see you were answering his last question.

  Personally I was hoping that you meant that the bolt spacing was not the same as Ultimarc's sticks so that I could bolt one in where my current Happ stick is mounted.  I was thinking maybe a Happ style base with E-stik innards...

And the second part confused me because I wouldn't expect bolt holes to be the same if footprints were different....

  This is why I should be working...not playing on the internet.... ;D

Ultimarc doesn't have a line of similiar sticks. Ultimarc sells sticks from other companies (IL, Sanwa, Suzo).

Oh, I thought since they had J-stik, E-stik, etc this was one they used to carry.  I was under the impression that the Mag-stik just replaced the old T-stik.

I have to admit that I'm confused about the relationships of many of these distributors, retailers, and manufacturers.  ie. does Happ make the Super or does I-L make it??? What about Happ's buttons?  No need to answer these questions....I've gotten us far enough off track already....

The mag and T are the same base stick. But the J-stik, E-stik, etcetera are just renamed sticks from various manufacturers

You ain't wrong.  Betson sells the same sticks with different names on them, but both buy them from IL.  Same for their buttons.

Not sure about the Ultimates, but the Happ Super, Competition and Universal joysticks are definitely manufactured by IL.
