Hello, I wanted to share this with everyone once it is completed, but I can't wait. The pictures are of the base of a Sidewinder Flight Stick and a 3" trackball plate mounted to it. It fits perfect. So I also bought a Tornado spinner. So I am hooking up the joystick and spinner with USB, and a trackball and buttons with a I-pac/Opti-pac. I though that everyone might want to see what this looks like before they do a hack on a flight stick. I don't think that you need to....Any comments? |

I've got a Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 that would be pretty cool to have on a panel, but I'm not sure about how to mount the throttle control on it. I kind of ran out of room. Maybe someday down the road. I'd be interested to see the rest of the details on how you mounted everything up underneath and all. |

The tornado spinner comes with a USB interface. I could hook it up to the opti-pac as well, but if everything works with the USB hookup, then I won't. More pics to come when I'm done :) |
