can you shoot me a PM (or check yours)
i'm trying to do the exact thing... i want to MAME my space harrier cabinet (without ruining it) until I can find a working boardset for the machine.

i just ordered a wingman from ebay. it looks like an older one because the newer ones say 'digital' and i'm assuming i don't want that.

i'd be interested in some detailed photos and/or what wires you connected to where on the original SH harness, etc.


thanks!
keith.

rip apart wingman extreme.
put it's circut boards into space harrier control panel.
connect wires from wingman's circut board's wiring harness to space harrier pots.
plug it into gameport.
calibrate in control panel.
done...too easy:-)

too easy

I've got a Wingman Warrior sitting on the floor under my desk right now!  Didn't know it used 5k pots though, Cool!  Have any luck getting the spinner to work under XP?

Also, I'd love some pics of that Space Harrier Joystick, above panel and below.  I want to know if it's the same (mechanically, I know the handle is different) as an Afterburner stick.

Thanks!

Kremmit,

You are just way too spooky for me.
It was bad enough seeing that our "currently owned" lists, and "wish" lists, were so similar.

If "your" Wingman Warrior is sitting on top of a hard drive box behind the chair you sit in to post messages when you get home........GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!!!!!!!!

Nope, mine is on the carpet under the knee-hole, where I can kick it every once in a while.  Ever get your spinner to work?
