The 360 is for all the regular games.
This is for Robotron / Crazy climber and I have another project that will use two CH Flightstick Pro's for dual stick / multi button Tank type games like Assault and Vindicators:

I'm a Robofanatic and use 2 U360's that can easily double and triple your game play options. I would consider myself an expert player who is very picky about maneuverability when it comes to Robotron. Actually especially when it comes to Robotron. I love the U360's especially for Robotron and mutant storm. I personally think they kick tail. I tried going down the path of building my own, wasted money for nothing and accidentally sawed deeply into my palm in the process. Not worth it at all.

No doubt that two U360s would rock in Robotron, but my goal is to duplicate the original controls as best I can. I have the control panel, interface, and I am getting the longer sticks. I want it to feel just like the arcade machine.
The two Flight sticks are not for Robotron, but for tank styled games that use two sticks and multiple triggers.
Thanks for the advice and my unannounced vaporware custom cabinet will definitely feature multiple U360s.

I've decided to go this route with my Smash TV MAME.
Do you use restrictors on your 2 U360s for Robotron?
(+_+):
Sorry for the late... ok very late reply. I'm using the circular restrictor plates for both and it plays buttery smooth on Smash TV, Robotron and Mutant Storm.
You should have PM'ed me a shot in the head to wake me up. ;)
