SF IV wirless arcade sticks for xbox 360/PC - Moved to BST

Franco B:
Very nice  :cheers:

I would like some 'under the hood' pictures too if possible. I have a couple of wireless 360 pads to wire up soon and I'm trying to get some ideas together.

cappadonna:
Here are a few more pics to look at.  First one is the inside of the Afro stick.  I know that project boxes can be used to conceal the controller but they take up way too much space.  I have managed to get these sticks down to a nice size and I want to keep them that way. I would have to add 2" to all sided to fit a project box.  BTW, soldering the wireless connect switch is a BEEYATCH.  Good Luck.



Here is the Ryu stick with buttons.  I think I'm going to move away from the P1 start button.  Looks a little to arcadish, maybe a solid color.  What do you think.  This stick will probably end up being wired just so I can use up some spare controllers.



This is the akuma stick I have been working on.  This was my first one.  It is wired but does have independant turbo fire for each button ;D.  I will be using either red/black or red/white buttons.



As far as how the plexi is mounted...the outer frame was notched with a table saw.  This holds the graphic and glass in place.  Except for the akuma stick.  See the difference.

Bender:
I'm new to the fighter scene, Never really played them in the arcade, but the new Streetfighter for 360 looks so good
I'm thinking of building a couple Sticks, but....

I have a couple of questions
I pretty sure they're 8 ways
I see a circular restrictor there, is that standard or do they normally use an 8 way(square) restrictor?
Why 8 buttons, what are the extra two for?

cappadonna:
Good ?'s bender.  Yes, they are 8 ways.  This particular restrictor just reduces the throw of the stick.  Sanwa's have a VERY LONG THROW.  The square 8 way restrictor you speak of does the same thing.  SF IV in the arcade uses 8 buttons.  The last 2 are RT and LT.  When you press the fourth button it is the same as pressing the 3 punch or 3 kick buttons simultaneously.  Some people seem to believe you cannot connect the trigger buttons because they are analog.  This is not true.  They connect just as easy as the others do.

Gatsu:
how tall are your sticks? Just curious because I've had to make my happ ones taller than I'd like.
