Venom arcade stick PS4/PS3

cheers bro

Iā€™m keen to do this with my HRAP3. Anyone know if itā€™s possible without soldering?

Where can I download a template for this stick?
Thanks

Just ordered a Venom (normal shipping so $100 even.

Consensus seems to be that the stick itself is fine, but the buttons should be upgraded eventually.

Iā€™m an old guy returning to fighting games after ~ 18 years away. Played mostly in arcades as a kid, so I always was better on stick and I think Iā€™ll enjoy this much more with one.

Iā€™ll post newbie impressions when it arrives in a week or two.

Some Galak-Z art would look cool on this thingā€¦

Earlier in this thread a few contributors had templates

Ok, Iā€™ll Take a look, thanks m8

Does this have touchpad functionality like the HRAP 4 Kai? If notā€¦is that a big deal? Pretty much narrowed it down to these two, but I see comments for the TE2 knocking it for lack of touchpad support, and wondering if the Venom has the same potential issues.

There isnā€™t any touchpad functionabilty that I am aware of.

Quick question to the group, does the lights indicating rather you are controller 1,2 ect and turbo light up for you guys? Iā€™m thinking that is the root of my disconnect problem as they donā€™t light up.

Yo. I recently bought a venom fight stick and I was seeking information on how to mod this fight stick since I am relatively new to modding. What buttons and joystick will anyone recommend to me. Where can I find more artwork for the fight stick. Do I have to solder anything ? . and how do the electrical components compare to other fight sticks since I have 0 knowledge about how fight sticks work. I would really appreciate if someone can show and tell me about these things and also send me pictures of their Modded Venom stick :smiley:

Only my turbo light comes on when I hold it and press a button.

@MoeMoeMagic, everything you need is in this thread.

Thanks, going to hook it up to my pc and PS3 see if I have the same problems with the frequent controller disconnects.

My buttons stopped working for a few seconds, but it was my fault cause I got salty and started slamming them instead of pressing them like a normal human being. I hope I didnā€™t break any electronics :neutral:

  1. It boils down to personal preference. Sanwa parts are the most popular (JLF lever/any of their 30mm buttons), though some prefer Seimitsu or even the new high grade Hori parts (moreso the Hayabusa lever than the Kuro buttons). Itā€™s not my favorite, but I would recommend starting with a Sanwa JLF to get a feel for the ā€œbaselineā€. There are a lot of mods you can do to it to get a feel for what you like.

  2. There is a template linked to somewhere in this thread.

  3. No, though youā€™ll need to be able to splice and/or crimp if you donā€™t get the JST cable thatā€™s been mentioned many times in this thread. If you want to keep it plug and play, get that cable and a lever that uses a 5 pin connection (most do, just make sure you get an ā€œ01ā€ variant if you order a Seimitsu lever).

  4. Havenā€™t seen any complaints about the function of the circuit board.

  5. I donā€™t have one.

Does this work on PC?

Yes

Cool thanks!

I donā€™t know shit about electronics, but is it possible to buy a female to male cable, rip out the male connector and slap on a female connector instead? The places where Iā€™ve found a female-female cable have unreasonable shipping costs to Sweden, itā€™d be cheaper to just buy a hori or mad catz. Thanks.

Try eBay. Worked for me (Swede here as well).

I ordered a pack of these and they worked just fine:

Thanks! That was a whole lot more reasonable.

Just contacted Venom UK, hopefully there is a work around that doesnā€™t involve me sending the stick all the way back to the UK from the US.
