IF you want complete smooth motion (no notches) out of your inductive, do the following:

Remove the plastic cover in the bottom.
Remove the circuit board.
Pop off the C-clamp Omega clamp from the stick, and take out the shaft.
Wrap a small piece of gritty sandpaper around your finger (grit facing outside ;)) and twist away where the shaft was until the bumps are no more.
Put it back together. 
Voila!  Enjoy your new quiet, silky smooth inductive controller.

Yeah, I'd thought of that, but I actualy like the bumps. I guess it's annoying when playing games that require a lot of circular movement, which are probably fighters, and since I hardly ever play fighters.....OK Robotron would benefit from this greatly too.....
I wonder though, do you still feel you can easily hit directions (4 way, or the 8 way corners f.i.) ?

Yeah I experienced this when tweaking with the 4/8 way pot. In a certain position, I COULD hit diagonals on the top side, but NOT on the bottom side. Is this what you mean ? And do you have an idea of what pot does what ?


Kowal: OK I understand about this ! ;)
I think the order list needs an update:
Grasshopper - 6
Level42 - 4
Kremmit - 2
Horseboy -4
= 16



Destructor: I was so unkind to inquire about the balls with Akihabarashop and f.i. for sending 4 balltops (35 mm) the shipping and handling costs added up to 1665 yen =
kowal:
with end of week I will close the list.
I ordered 20 ferryt cores.
Grasshopper:
Kowal, what sort of glue are you using to stick the ferrite rings to the shaft? I'm thinking that perhaps it might be better if the rings were held in place with a nut or circlip. Or would that affect the induction?
kowal:
I use two - component glue 'Poxipol'. He is strong glue. it dries in 5-10min it after 24h hardens.
if I will use nuts this field can shatter. E - clip can again hinder about PCB.
davieboynj:
I'm surprised i held out as long as i did.

I'm in for two. 

Set wife to "kill".
