Yes it's a lot of modification, but still easier than building from scratch.
I can turn a new actuator, and drill and tap the shaft to hold it on.
It would be nice to know the dimensions of the current actuator and shaft so i can work out if I can make an actuator that works.
Does your shaft extend approx 10mm below the leafs like this one?

Any word on the white CLASSX?

hmmm scratch my previous scheme, the leaf-pro looks like it will work for Defender as is (minus a bit of plastic). Definitely OK for a short button in a wood panel like I use, long button may work depending on exact stick dimensions.
And my experiment with my 2way leaf switch zippyy has confirmed the expected benefit of leaf switch joystick.
So, when are you expecting stock again?
Also, you said the stick is short by default. Is there then a longer option? How much longer?

These actually should have been here by now. I will be checking again today.

That's actually what I had in mind with my first post on the subject. The Leaf-Pro doesn't use the plastic parts, so immediate actuation, with very little resistance is simple to achieve. Unfortunately (?), we have had a high demand for these lately, including from installers/resellers who cleaned us out of stock. We have a decent quantity on order, but it looks like they are going to be about 2 weeks out.
Currently, the only shaft for these is the short one. While a longer one can be made, it would likely create unreasonable stress on the assembly, due to the increased leverage which could be applied with it.

I'm not in a hurry so a few weeks wait is no problem.
What do the restrictors look like for 8way and 4way?
Is it an upstanding part like on the dimension diagram I posted?
I will probably do my own thing anyway to build 2way/4way switchable restriction into the panel.
