Title: Tight Spot
Post by: ark_ader on April 12, 2007, 08:33:16 pm

Hi,

Got a project cooking, and just getting ready to get the hardware all together and I just had a nasty shock.  No room for a Happ Ultimate.  Too Big.   Ooops....

I have only 1.5 inches of depth to play with and the Ultimate doesn't fit.    ::)

I got the Seimitsu buttons sorted, I just need a joystick that will fit in 1.5 inches of space below the control panel.

I have looked on Happ Controls and that sub minature joystick looks the part, but is there any alternatives with Ultimarc or how about a Sanwa Ball Top? Will that fit?

Any suggestions?

Yes... the sanwa sticks should fit.... That's because they were designed to fit candy cabs, where there is very limited space.
