Admin Buttons on a Control Panel
Afterburner:
I have an upper and lower CP arrangement (like a staircase) with the upper CP for a flight stick and spinner.
The lower CP has two 8-way rotary joys wired to an older IPAC 2.
I also have two X-arcade trackballs. They each came with wiring for 3 buttons (they are recognized as 3-button USB mice) and I have my P1 Buttons 1/2/3 and P2 Buttons 1/2/3 wired into the trackballs.
That left me all kinds of room on the IPAC, which was good because I needed the inputs for the rotary encoder for the joysticks.
My admin buttons are small (less than the diameter of a dime) and are mounted on the vertical panel connecting the upper and lower CP. They are easy to access and don't get bumped accidentally during game play. They were some cheap panel mount pushbuttons I picked up on eBay for about $8 for a pack of 12.
