| Anyone ever take a joystick out of an X-Arcade? I can't figure out how... |

I find the easiest way is to put the stick in your lap face down, with the joystick handle firmly pushed into your thigh. Use a very small flathead screwdriver to get in the notch formed between the clip and shaft. Now just press the actuator down with a finger or two to relieve pressure on the clip and pop it off. Even if it only comes off 10%, that's enough to now use pliers and pull it off. |

Thanks for the tips. Dunno why mine were so much tighter than the rest of yours (with your fingers?!), but even pliers didn't work. In the end I had to use wire cutters, the two ends hooked into one of the holes in the c-clip, and pull really dang hard. And it was even that hard the second time I did it (when put into my new CP, I accidentally left off a piece, so had to take the joysticl back off). |
