Title: Need help mounting joysticks to slikstik control panel
Post by: sfetaz on July 13, 2004, 10:26:34 pm

I have 2 betson Super Joysticks and a slikstik quad control panel blank.  The slikstik joystick holes do not have holes for the screws for mounting the joysticks.  The joysticks themselves did not come with mounting screws.  What type of screws and drill bit should I get to properly secure the joysticks.  More importantly, how can I ensure that the joysticks are centered perfectly.  Thanks!

The easiest thing to do is check out the FAQ, you should be able to find all the info you need.  I mounted my joysticks to my slikstik quad unit w/carriage bolts and had no problems and looks good. Hope this helps.

I looked all through the FAQ and found nothing about the best way to make sure the joystick is properly centered.

You said you used carriage bolts, what size and drill bit did you use?  Thanks!
