Has anyone modded their HORI Real Arcade Pro.EX?

I just got this stick in the mail a few days ago and i’ve got some Sanwa buttons on order from lizardlick.com and ball top for the stick. I just want to ask how to pop the top off on this thing? do the button things just pop off? Also this may be a retarded question but I can’t get the ball off the stick lol maybe i’m being to gentle but i really don’t feel like screwing this thing up. I thought about getting some pliers to take the ball off (using a cloth of course to keep from scratching it up)…

err, well to pop up the top, unscrew the bottom first, then the nuts under it etc

for the balltop at the other side of the shaft there’s a screw, just hold it still with a screw driver and un screw the balltop.

There’s an enormous thread on the HRAP EX… it includes modding and whatever.
You’ll need a Phillips screwdriver and a 7mm nut driver. Then, you’ll need a flathead screwdriver to undo the joystick ball by holding it from behind and unscrewing the ball. Use the flathead to undo the QD’s.

dude thanks for the info :slight_smile:
