Title: Happ Competition Joystick
Post by: Ler6557 on April 19, 2005, 04:30:10 pm
Does anybody know where I can find an Orange Happ Competition Joystick for my control panel? I know it exists because its on the SlikStik control panel in one of the pictures on their website. I need it to go along with orange pushbuttons.

SlikStik gets their products from Happ, it even says on the site that its a Happ Competition Joystick, so if they don't have it on Happ then SlikStik won't have it either, and wouldn't sell it individually anyway.

I bought every color available which includes yellow, green, red, and blue.  Are you sure the photo doesn't have color problems and it is really red?

I had to check the photos myself and there is an orange stick ... I think the OP assumes it is a Happ Comp, but it sure looks like one.

Ler6557 -- did you drop Christian at SlikStik a PM or an e-mail ?

Seems to me to be the logical place to start.

Cheers.

if you check the site under products, you'll notice you can buy joysticks seperatly.  if you do this and go to more info, you'll find that the orange stick only is available for a competition stick.  here's the page to read yourself.

as for ordering one, just write slikstik and tell them you just want a shaft, or if i'm mistaken and you want the whole stick, then buy a whole stick from this page.  easy.

Strange Happ doesn't sell them.  Custom handle?

Happ doesn't make that stick anyway, iL does, happ is just a reseller.

WHo is iL. I though Happ was a manufacturer?

Happ resells a lot of things too.  They used to resell Perfect 360s but recently bought the company.  Just figured they sold all Competition stick colors.  Why leave out 1 (orange)?

Happ doesn't manufacture everything it makes.  iL is Industrias Lorenzo, who are the real manufacturer of a number of different joysticks (among other aracde parts).
