Happ Competition joysticks - way too sensitive

I think he was telling me to suck up the bucks to test some more joysticks and see what works for me  :P.

So, ctozzi, did you have to grind the inside of the actuator? You said you just placed it upside down and that it worked fine like that, but like I said before, if I place it the other way around, it doesn't fit, unless I grind the inside.

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

Sweet telling me to "suck it" that's real cool how does that help anyone. What a loser, check out his machines......... One look at them says who you should listen to anyways HA HA !

Hey ctozzi, I just sent you a personal mail explaining that nothing offensive is intended by the phrase "suck it". In Australia, it means "try it out and see if it works", and nothing else. It isn't rude here. I was actually recommending that the person try out your method to see if it works.

Sorry to you, and sorry that these "cultural differences" mean that someone might get offended.

I actually think that my cabs are pretty damn good and I am very proud of them.  So are many of the cabs built by enthusiasts here. I have restored, improved and sold a lot of cabs with PC-based multi-arcade game systems installed, packed full of features, and my many happy customers are proud to show them off to their friends as well.

If you want to check out just one of my machines properly, try googling "betelgeuse arcade classics"

Take care,
Zeb

Sorry to bring this up again, but since nobody has answered this yet, I'll just ask it again: should I be fine grinding the inside of the actuator (just grind the small plastic ring on the inside away) or will it render my actuator useless? In order to put it upside down, thus making it less responsive, I'll have to grind the inside, hence my question.

Ummon:

Wow so much advice for such a simple thing....

I like the Comps myself, BUT they are not as good as my dedicated MKII and MK3 sticks I have on the actual machines.  Here is what I did to make them better.  Got the stiffer springs from the Real Bob Roberts (about $1 USD each) and now they are 95% as close to the original sticks as can be.

Also to be fair, I really got use to these playing Street Fighter 2 in the arcade, so I'm use to them, but the stock MK ones are the best.  I think they were Wico ones or something.  There is a thread here (that I'm a part of I think) that has pics of them posted and someone ID'd them.  Problem is we can't get them anymore, so Comps it was...
