Rotary T-Stik Plus? DEFINITELY!!! (UPDATE: 6-3-04)
mr.Curmudgeon:
(UPDATE: 6-3-04)(Please note: I figured it out, here's the How-To: http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php?board=10;action=display;threadid=20018
Would it be possible to add/hack a rotary function (optical?) to a T-Stik Plus?
If it's even feasible, it might not be ideal, but I'd LOVE to have an all-in-one solution for 4-way/8-way/rotary games. I love Ikari, etc.. but I just can't justify the extra room on the CP.
GGKoul:
I don't think you would be able hack a T-Slik to a rotary.
Make your panel modular. As that will probably be the best way to add everything your looking for.
Search the forum, as this was discussed last week.

I don't think it's gonna happen...the shaft would have to be longer for the encoder wheel to attach to. Probably more hassle than it's worth even trying :(
Lance:
After seeing how the wico rotaries are made I think it would be possible. The wicos are a mechanical rotary joystick, they have a 12 position switch that is held in place with a bracket. I don't have any pictures since I sold the ones I had already but bet you could hack something together.
mr.Curmudgeon:
Thanks for pointing out the Wicos. I'm off to find pictures.
I've seen a lot of things on this board that people said couldn't be done...and just as many things (if not more) that were not worth the hassle, so you never know.
;D
I'm not giving up just yet.
