Thanks Andy!

The Mag-Stik is a very short throw stick. Its a very subjective issue as to preference of a short or longer throw stick but this is a longer throw type, as per Sanwa or similar sticks.

MacGyver:
So I wanted to see just how different the mounts for a JLF and these were, so I scaled the drawings to proper size and then overlaid the JLF over the new ServoStiks, the JLF is in red. 

It looks like I can use the same t-nuts for each.  I was worried that I would have to tear up my CPO overlay to mount these when they came,  it appears I won't.

A lot of cabinets have a seperate 4-way stick for some games, in addition to having the usual two 8-way sticks. Will using this essentially eliminate the need to buy / implement a seperate 4-way joystick in my cabinet, and instead implement a few buttons to control the switching? I'm currently building my first cab and still designing the control panel. The less joysticks I have to have on it the better (in theory I suppose)

Thanks in advance

This does eliminate this requirement. So the cabinet can be as per an original which of course would not have that extra stick. There is no need for any additional buttons to switch, although you could have if you wanted to. The best way though would be to configure your front end to perform the switchover then it would be totally automatic.

Oh, excellent! Thanks for the speedy reply. Once i've nutted out my control panel design these will likely be the sticks I use.

Stub:
I am excited for the U360 mod.

In fact if you sell a U360, with the servo, hollow shaft with rotating connector for top-fire and LED, and a rotation optical kit, you can just have my money. All of it.

MacGyver:
Just got mine in, will report back after I get them mounted (might take awhile, I have to route the panel.  Thanks for the quick turn around on my order.

Now I'm off to find some hollow JLW shafts  :dunno
