HaRuMaN:
At best, the thumb stick may be able to be digitized. 
Nivek TT:
It seems like the thumbsticks operate using potentiomtres but not sure what resistance. The Happ joysticks operate using two 5kOhm potentiometres. If the Xbox 360 gamepad just happened to be the same (rather hopeful!) then connections could probably be swapped like for like, if not then I reckon the potentiometres of the Happ joystick could be changed.

Haruman, have you checked whether some (cheaper) 3rd party controllers are easier to have apart and modify? Such as: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Neo-SE-Advanced-Controller-Black/dp/B000CNZLYA/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1219754502&sr=8-11
HaRuMaN:
The chances that the pots are the same is remote, unfortunately...   :D  I'm sure if someone really wanted to, they could try to replace the pots on the Happ stick with pots that match the pots on the 360 controller.

The Neo-SE controller, while cheaper, is as difficult to hack as the official, because it does not have common grounds.

The MadCatz (gamestop) controller is both cheaper, and easier since it does have a common ground.
Nivek TT:
Cheers, bidding on a second hand Madcatz controller now!  ;D
versapak:
Are the triggers hackable on the 3rd party controllers like the Madcatz?
