Title: Length of joystick- wico leaf's
Post by: Brad Lee on June 11, 2003, 09:49:57 am

For the wico ball-top replacement shafts, how is that measured? I see auctions with 3.5", 4", and 4.5"

Is it from the E clip at the bottom to the bottom of the ball? I measured that and that is 3.5". ANy other logical measurements I made were all odd sizes, fro mthe very bottom to the very top, the bottom to the center of the ball, etc

I have 4 inch and 3.5 inch shafts. That is measured from the bottom of the ball to the bottom of the shaft.

As far as I am aware the original Wico joysticks only ever came with 3.5" or 4" shafts (measured from the bottom of the shaft to the bottom of the ball).

However the guy who sells replica shafts on Ebay (n2new@aol.com) can make them in non-standard lengths if that is what you want.
