Re: Joysticks

We took the KOP joysticks and unscrewed the two halves of the actual stick portion and unplugged the wires from the PCB, tucked the end of the cable into the stub-stick that remained, and wrapped it with rubber tape. it takes a bit more force to actuate as a result of the shorter lever, but it is much shorter, also, the cable could be attached to a custom button array either on-stick or off by simply replicating the circuitry of the original PCB, or at least the parts you need.
