Happ Competition joysticks - way too sensitive

Well it works pretty good on my 4 dedicated mortal kombat cabinets, have him try it and see if it works for him if not new sticks ar only like $ 12 shipped to your door so not a huge outlay of cash by any means.

Yeah, suck it and see what works for you and your setup.

Yeah, I wanted to try that but it doesn't fit like that. I have to grind the inside of the actuator a little if I want to put it on the other way around. Did you do that as well? I asked the seller of my sticks since someone on Youtube had a vid on assembling joysticks and he mentioned putting the actuator upside-down too, but the seller of my sticks told me that the stick in that vid was an old Wico, since the actuator on the new Happ comps only goes on one way.

Thats a neat idea, though I do not think I want to make mine less sensitive than they are.

I did test the friction level of my 2 sticks, the P1 stick it rotates pretty easy, not much friction at all and it can not engage any of the switches from rotating.  P2 side has a bit more friction, but it was still not enough to make anything engage when twisting the stick.

I guess I just got lucky and mine came like that, I would assume they get even more loose as time passes as well.

They may, but it's hard to say.  With a proper fit, those actuators should not even really turn.  If you have a drill press, it's fairly simple to ream them, but it may be better to contact the seller and see if they can provide you with a couple that are not tight enough to grab.
