Title: What has the same footprint as the Happ Competition joy?
Post by: releasedtruth on October 09, 2006, 09:27:19 pm

I was considering replacing my Happ competition joystick base (just to save a little loudness), but I have it router undermounted and I do love the stainless steel sticks I have. Would the 360 fit in the same base perhaps? Don't see a diagram on the happ site. Also, the stainless sticks I have don't fit perfect with the dust washers. I heard another dust washer may fit better. Anyone remember which, super maybe? Muchas gracias amigos.

Just found the retroblast article I needed. The P360 will fit just fine if/when I make the switch out. Just need the right dust washer for the stick now.

Happ Ultimate, Super, Competition, Reunion, P360, Top Fire, Optical Rotary, Mechanical Rotary all have the same footprint.  Wico Leaf, Microswitch and rotary joys also fit this footprint.  There may be others, too.

To answer your question about the dustwashers:

If you use SlikStik StainlessSteel handles you will want the dustwasher from a Happ Ultimate Stick.  It has a smaller hole in the center and fits the slikstik replacements nicely.

(note:  the ultimate and Wico bases are just a hair smaller than the competitions and supers but the bolt patterns are still the same.)
