Tight Spot
« on: April 12, 2007, 08:33:16 pm »
Hi,

Got a project cooking, and just getting ready to get the hardware all together and I just had a nasty shock.  No room for a Happ Ultimate.  Too Big.   Ooops....

I have only 1.5 inches of depth to play with and the Ultimate doesn't fit.    ::)

I got the Seimitsu buttons sorted, I just need a joystick that will fit in 1.5 inches of space below the control panel.

I have looked on Happ Controls and that sub minature joystick looks the part, but is there any alternatives with Ultimarc or how about a Sanwa Ball Top? Will that fit?

Any suggestions?
If I had only one wish, it would be for three more wishes.

Yes... the sanwa sticks should fit.... That's because they were designed to fit candy cabs, where there is very limited space.
