“Love these joysticks - they have a good clunky, clicky feel to them. If you remove the mounting plate they can be used with very little room to spare too! I've bought of these things for various projects. Only wish there were different ball tops to choose from!”
“I bought these on offer but to they were already good value at full price, so it was a great deal. I've been buying similar looking joysticks from China at same price but these Zippyy ones are far better. The build quality is excellent and they have a restictor gate if you need it, which can be useful in some applications.
Make sure you're happy with the shaft length (ahem). These are the short version which are great if you're surface mounting them from the top, your material is thin (like perspex) or for something like a donkey kong cabinet were the sticks are short. Fighting sticks are usually longer but I personally prefer these. They're not sloppy like some cheap joysticks. You're actuating the microswtiches as soon as the stick is moved with no play, which I think makes a far better product.”
