Re: small joystick pots??
I think that's called a gimbal assembly but under "joystick" Newark sells these

But they are a bit pricey and you'd probably have to change the pots to 100K if you want to use them for a FIRST OI interface.

Same with mouser

I think some RC transmitters have a gimbal assembly and if you know a type you might try finding one on e-bay for parts and salvaging the units.


Good luck
