Title: WTB: A pre-built Twisty-Grip style Star Wars Yoke-type controller...
Post by: WaverBoy on May 17, 2003, 02:52:56 pm
I've decided I don't have quite enough faith in my assembling and wiring abilities to make one from scratch.  Any of you mechanical/electrical geniuses out there got something resembling one that you'd sell me?  And I mean that sincerely...I really do think you're geniuses.  I really wish I had the knack for this stuff.  :)

BT did you give up on figuing out how to mount it decently onyour cp?   you were my only hope...

*Shrug* so who's the lucky bastage?  and what other goodies are you trying to dump (sorry for the slight thread hijack waverboy... be patient and other SW yokes will come up on ebay again soon.)

Hmmm, tempting offer, I have yet to make mine, but I'm not sure how to put it on my panel yet.

Anybody else besides 1up try his SW yoke hack?  I've got the controller, (on ebay for 5 bucks) but I'm having a hell of a time finding a SW yoke.....

sure... Oscar from Oscar Controls did...  I'm going to eventually.

The hard part *is* finding a reasonably priced SW or SW-esque yoke on ebay intact.

*shrug*  One could also wire it directly to your gameport on your PC but the dual strike hack seems a little more eloquent

YMMV

Heh...I'm surprised Oscar didn't just make one from scratch, LOL  :)
