Title: Good or bad joys?

I wanted ball joysticks, and I saw these, and I wasn't sure if they'd be crap or if they're good?

Opinions?

Ah, MCA joys.  I've got a pair.  They're okay.  Really meant to be mounted to sheet metal though, as the stick is really short.

Also, although there is a 'ball' on the top, it's not a balltop per se.  It's all one piece.

Yeah I've got half a dozen of them. There pretty good, nice short throw, rubber centering grommet etc. Pretty good for budget stick.

If you're looking for a couple of ball tops, I'm supposed to receive this lot  (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3237850745)tomorrow...
I'll let you know which ones I'll be willing to let go of...

I'll even clean them up real good before shipping them off.

Between the ones I receive & the ones I've already got, I'll probably have about a dozen sticks to get rid of.  I'm thinking like 6 bucks + actual shipping for the microswitch ones... I'll also have a couple of WICO leafs to pass on, but I'll want a little more for those...

Sorry... Didn't mean to highjack your thread...
I'll start a new one when I get these things cleaned up & photographed...
(Just PM me if you're interested...)
