GaryMcT's 2-player generic control panel layout

GaryMcT:

I would set a multimeter for measure resistance (ohms), put the leads on either end, and move it around to see what the range is.  If you can match that range with something else, should be able to replace it. :)

Bender:

found this on the interwebs
it says that the voltage range is from 0 to 1.61v

Part 1
Part 2

so now we have to find some analog stick that has the same range?

man, if that guy can build a tilt controller we should be able to add couple of analog sticks

Fail on my part. . I was assuming that it is a potentiometer. :)

Might be worth looking at the Happ analog one to see what range it is in.  I'm so swamped with bugs right now at work that I can't even google it.

Bender:

no worries, this is a hobby and should never take precedence over real work ;)

I think they are potentiometers

happ's analog joysticks have either 5k or 100k pots though it says "Optional pot. amplifier PC board allows variable output from potentiometer"

I have no idea how that "k" relates to volts ???



GaryMcT:

It probably does relate somehow.  I may go ahead and disassemble my broken one soon so that I can help out. :)
