Happ Super mod to a true 4-way

(1/3) > >>

ringram:
I've been reading up a lot on 4-way sticks, and I've decided that I will modify a Super into a dedicated true 4-way. This should be simple enough my replacing the base plate with a one that I will make that will restrict the diagonals.

I can get the dimensions and some pictures easily enough, but I was hoping that somebody could provide me with some more details. The pacman/galaga reunion stick already has a restrictor and the stick is essentially a super or competition stick. It would be great if I can get some pictures, etc of one of these sticks so that I can see what I need to do.

Why not just buy the reunion stick? I want the 4-way to assetically match the 8-way's. Plus, I like the challange of DIY.

Shhh..Happ doesn't want you talking about this.

A couple of minutes with a round file and you've got a reunion base. ;)

ringram:
please elaborate. I don't have either a super or a reunion joystick to compare, yet.

Isn't that the other way around?  Filing the Super's circle out into a larger diamond would still allow you to hit diagonals. 

A couple minutes with a round file and you can turn a Reunion into a Super, but to go the other way, you'd have to add a plate with a diamond shaped hole to the bottom of the Super.

You know you can just put a super handle on a reunion stick, right?
