Title: DIY ServoStik
Post by: StefanBurger on December 27, 2016, 06:31:57 pm

Hi there,

I designed an DIY alternative servo stick that is software compatible to ultimarcs (works with JoyTray and is PacDrive.dll compatible).
you can find it at...

Awesome.   :applaud:

I was expecting a copy of the servo stick, but you've come up with a unique, clever design.

Looks sweet!  Can this be mounted onto a original Sanwa JLF?  It looks like you're using a clone in this video, so I'm wondering if the mounting screws are lined up exactly like a JLF.

edit:  errr, wait, those are Seimitsu clones are they not?

Hi,

there are two instruction videos on YouTube available:

Part 2: Eelectronics & Firmware: https://youtu.be/C653B6JIBXI

@opt2not: yes it seems to be a Seimitsu clone, But it would be not to difficult to modify the base-part to fit on the bottom of other joysticks.

And by the way...

If you ever wanted to change your illuminated pushbuttons to NeoPixels (did you know that you can control up to thousands of NeoPixels indivually with just one single IO-Pin?)
