Venom arcade stick PS4/PS3

You will have to splice or solder the single ended plug. Get wire strippers and a euro style terminal strip (example: http://www.amazon.com/Position-Style-Nylon-Barrier-Strip/dp/B0050CF4QI/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1428675300&sr=8-2&keywords=terminal+strip+euro), cut the terminal strip down to 5 positions, then do this:

If the directions are wrong, just swap the signals around accordingly. I didn’t match up directional locations between the two diagrams, you will need to determine which original wire goes to which direction.

The harness fits over a 5 pin output, that little clamp holds it in place. Do not cut/break it off.

Excellent, all clear now thanks!

No problem. I can assist further if you run into any issues.

Or you can get a double sided harness from godlikecontrols.com.

Doh, I forgot he has those. I believe this guy is in Europe though, which usually makes shipping atrocious.

Correct! a Buddy is sending me a 5 pin double sided cable that should arrive at the end of the month, so I can try that too.

Thanks again all!

Okay the stick came in yesterday and got a quick tryout with it, i’ll give some quick impressions if you’re looking to buy it.

As mentioned earlier, the case is really nice, it feel similar to the Madcatz SE stick, big and bulky with good weight. The quality of the buttons and the stick is pretty poor, this was instantly apparant after I unboxed it and found out that the L2 button was permanently stuck in a pressed position, I tried popping it back out with a screwdriver from the back, but it just got stuck again.
The stick that came with it feels pretty flimsy but it’s easy to replace, The whole case is very roomy and looks to be great for modding, you can fit all kinds of stuff in there. also the artwork can be exchanged pretty easily.

Even if you have to crank out most of the parts, the case is worth the price alone imo, if you like big cases like me. you can turn this average 7/10 in a solid 9/10 with just a few easily interchangable parts.

I will buy this stick as it’s basically a MAYFLASH V2 with PS4 support and it’s only £69.

Thinking about picking this up but have a couple of quick questions.

Where’s the best place to get it with shipping to the US?
From what I’ve read, a JLF is plug and play using the JLF-TE Cable from godlikecontrols.com. Sanwa buttons are also plug and play. Correct?

Thanks!

The buttons use .110" quick disconnects, which is standard for Japanese buttons (Sanwa, Seimitsu, Hori, knockoffs), so yes

I think amazon.es has the best price right now. Given the conversion rate, and amazon’s fairly affordable shipping, it should be around 120 USD or less, shipped

I recently bought MKX and cause my controller’s dpad isn’t very precise, I got the Venom Arcade Stick on Amazon. I kinda already got used to it, but I don’t like the stock buttons and the circle gate, so I figured why not upgrade it, afterall it seems easy.

After some reading I figured the best stick for me would be a Seimitsu LS-40, unfortunately not that easy to get in Germany. There is a vendor from the UK on ebay, but then it gets kinda pricey, so I’d like to try the next best available thing, the LS32(non-01).
As someone already mentioned the buttons are plug and play, I am planning to use Sanwas. But how about the Joystick? As far as I can tell, the non-01 Seimitsus have the same connectors as the stock joystick, is that right? So basically I just need the buttons and the joystick + SS plate, no harness or soldering/splicing/whatever.

The holes on the ss plate may not align with the holes on the mounting bracket on the the stick. You may need to try one of the universal s-plates.

You’re correct about the lever connection, tabbed microswitches will be plug and play.

Alright then. Gonna order the parts soon and give an update as soon as they arrive.

For what I see the Turbo functions buttons are wired with other function buttons. Any problem if you disconnect them all from the PCB to avoid problems on tournaments or it work OK?

The LS-32/40 don’t need a mounting plate on this stick. Its the qanba mount. You screw them directly the top panel from the top by removing the plexi.

What the hell?

Please post photos of this. Otherwise I call shenanigans.

At around 4:40 in this vid you can see the mounting holes. There are 4 that form a square. These are the holes one uses to mount an LS-32/40. These correspond exactly to the holes with which the stick is mounted to the plate, so it seems to me that one could completely bypass the plate and just screw to the panel. I don’t have a 32 or 40 in mine, and honestly i don’t really care to install it just to prove this, but it suffices to say that it uses the mouning holes that the q1 uses.

here is a better picture, this is not from a Venom, but it’s the same mount
