Pony’s out of stock on Eurosticks? That’s strange. I’m sure you misread, but then again I have only been keeping up with stock of certain buttons. I’d e-mail him if I were you.
Also regarding your issue, does the stick still move in a circle but it’s just clunky?
Yea it still moves in a circle but feels clunky just like you said. Like when I now start playing, for like the first hour or so, it’s fine. But then I start to feel the clunkiness. I’ve had the stick for like almost a year but I’ve only been experiencing this recently. I could have sworn Pony said he was out of sticks but yea I should still email him and try
I’m bulding a custom joystick. On the cherry microswitches can anyone tell me how they are wired. There are 3 connectors (two on side, one on top). What exactly hooks up to what? is the top one the grnd and do I just use one of the side ones or both and which? Help a retard out.
hey guys just wondering if you could help me out. i have a newer MAS stick with a P360 in it and it seems to have a lot of problems with hitting the angles. do i need to break it in? could i try to change the spring? any help would be great, thanks.
All, I stumbled onto a Happ distributor on the BYOAC forum. Gary Thompson. Great guy, good prices and FAST service. I highly recommend him for anybody looking for Happ stuff. I just ordered from him late last week.

If you look at the side of the microswitch, you should see the tabs are labelled NC and NO (normally closed, and normally open respectively.) The NO connection is the one you want for most applications. If you hook it up backward, the operation will be backward, but it wont hurt anything. Hope that helps! feel free to PM me if you need any more help. Do your switches have the markings I speak of? They should have COM (common) in addition to the other two I just mentioned.
are there another places besides Lizardlick that sells IL Euro Sticks?
This same thing is happening to me, but when I move from left to right. Starting from the center is cool. I have the white/clearish actuator. It almost seems like it gets snagged on the wall…removing the microswitch, it still happens. When I get home, I’ll crack the stick open and see if there might be something going on near the spring and such. I’m working with lizardlick on this, but thought I would branch out to the community to see if they had any thoughts.
so are there happ competition buttons and il comp buttons? or are those all pretty much the same?
i sent ponyboy a pm about order some il parts, just wanted to clear it up before hand if possible.
anyone?
i guess not many people use american sticks…
The newer P360’s have a common problem of not hitting diagonals correctly. I beleive if you change the actuator this should help (not 100% positive though, I’m sure someone who knows a lot about American sticks will know though)
Yeah, probably a good call having that info in here. Kyle posted a thread about it a couple of days ago but it got lost so fast.
For anyone who doesn’t already know, Happ has stopped using Cherry microswitches. :wasted: Click for details.
Out of curiosity, has this info been found from any other source aside from TornadoTerrys?
just curious if there was a difference in height between the iL and Happ competition buttons?
dark resurrection!!
sorry for bumping this, but I need to say it
I’ve followed the tutorial here
http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=72400.0
and holy shit this stick now is perfect
almost no noise (for me the clicking sound was nice - i love it actually) but now it performs excellent
Im using happ made competition stick (black actuator)
haven’t tried the buttons yet, will do tomorrow
Is there a way to tell old HAPP competitions from the old ones?
The old comp are IL Eurojoysticks with the white cherry microswitches and white actuator, pivo and the piece witch hold acutator are white too…
I recently noticed that the Hard Spring from Happ comp doesnt fit in IL Eurojoystick.
