Cheap Trigger Joysticks
« on: June 19, 2003, 03:46:42 am »
Do these things exist?  The cheapest trigger joystick on happcontrols.com was 100+ dollars.  I'm not sure why the big sudden leap in price there.

I've seen hacks, but does someone make an inexpensive one?

A top fire joystick is close, but not quite the same.  (BTW, It appears Wico had one of these for under $10.  See here http://www.wicothesource.com/new2/pages/page88.htm)

two words for you...

EEEEEE    bay

although it won't necessarily be cheap.

I assume you just want a trigger stick and not an analog trigger stick.

The tron casing style goes for mondo bucks... but if you watch ebay simliar sticks can get through for cheap (i.e. xenophobe, even gorf... maybe some zaxxon clone or something)

Why not hack one your self if you're that cost conscience?  The raider pro trigger stick hack is documented enough that by now they come out looking pretty nice. *Shrug*

good luck!
