I was wondering what gage of wire to use for joysticks & buttons when wireing to the IPAC controller?
Also, any wireing tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated!
thanks

I used 22 gauge stranded.......and invest in .187 quick disconnects (females), a good crimping tool, and some ice to put on your hand when you're done (if you're making a 4 player CP that is heh heh heh).

also sells a good crimping tool.
