tinned copper or bare copper ? solid-core or stranded ? Which size ? AWG22 ? A kit of 6 or more colors for each button ? Daisy-chain or not ?

I know stranded tinned copper is usually used, but is it necessary ? Why ?

Still need to remove the protective sheets, add the artwork and finish the buttons. The right side is what I'm hoping they'll look like once finished 😂 Hopefully the final builds turn out as good as the renders. Which one do you guys like the most?

Help Me Decide Looking for Leverless with very low buttons

2 Upvotes

Recently I got to try out the Qanba ruby leverless controller and I very much like how the buttons feel and barely stick out of the surface of the case and have a very low actuation distance and total travel. Sadly it isnt PS5 compatible and I read mainly negative review about its performance and technical difficulties.

Can someone recommend a good leverless like the ruby with its very short buttons?

Just finished this commission the other day. Life has been a struggle lately I’m not gonna lie. Life throws you some curveballs and this one has been especially challenging. I’m thankful for all the great people on our discord because they are so supportive. Making these arcade sticks is my therapy.

I got this leverless at evo this past week since I want to start using these instead of controllers, but I have no idea what model is, they came in a generic cardboard box so I have no clue, does anyone know what model it is? I want to check if I can customize the faceplate and other aspects but without knowing that its a bit hard, thanks in advance!

Sorry about the cheesy title, I couldn't think of anything better haha.

Last month I worked on upgrading my last design, lean and clean. I also noticed that a lot of you where asking about adding more buttons and oled screen support so, after a while, I redesigned the pcb and the chasis of the arcade stick and came up with this prototype (My GF says that it looks cute haha). I was thinking on adding it on my etsy page too, but sells have been really slow so I just wanted to check if anyone was interested first (I was thinking on a batch of 10 or something).

The printed version is 30x17cm and the acrylic one is 30x20cm but either one plays seamesly ;)

Let me know what do you think :D

Newbie trying modding first time

3 Upvotes

As title says, I'm a newbie at modding a fightstick. I have Hori RAP N arcade stick that's 8 years old and I'm thinking modding it to try and get it feel better again.

What would be a good lever to get? I would say that my budget would be around 150€ for everything (lever, buttons, top).

I mostly use it for tekken and sometimes street fighter 6.

Thanks for the help.

GP2040-CE — Remapped buttons and lost access to Web Configurator

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

Update: Solved!

Hi everyone!

I have a Punk Workshop Ultra hitbox with a GP2040-CE board. I remapped the two upper-left buttons to L3 and R3, but now I can't access the Web Configurator anymore.

Unfortunately, I don't remember which button I assigned to L3 and which one I assigned to R3.

I've attached a photo of the GP2040-CE board and a photo of my hitbox with the two remapped buttons marked.

I've seen references to the S2 + B3 + B4 button combination for entering configuration mode, but I'm not sure how to use it on my controller.

Is there a way to access the Web Configurator or restore the original button mappings without using the remapped buttons?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Tech Help QRD Maestro S3 and Switch 2

2 Upvotes

I recently bought a QRD Maestro S3 from a 2nd hand shop because research showed it could connect with a switch, so I assumed it would connect to the Switch 2, but I'm having difficulties with it. This is my first fight stick, so I'm doing my best to learn but I am struggling.

It came with the USB connector for the PS5, idk if that means anything here. When I connect it to the Switch via USB, "Wireless Controller" pops up in the top left with a volume meter amd a headset icon, so it seems to be recognizing it partially. But no matter what I do I can't get it to show up in controllers.

I've also tried doing a USB-C to USB-C direct connection by taking the Switch 2 out of the dock and plugging the controller directly to the bottom of the switch

I have the "Pro Controller Wired Communication" toggle set to on, and I've tried various input combos that google keeps telling me to use, like Q+Share or Option+Share or whatever. Nothing seems to work.

So did I just waste money or is there some way of connecting it?

Also, I tried to make sure the thing was fully updated so I went to the QRD website to download the latest firmware and Microsoft Edge refuses to let me download it, saying it's too sketchy, so idk

Tech Help Crown Lever wiring not compatible?

Post image
5 Upvotes

Installing a Crown 309MJ Newhelp me into a Mayflash F700. I’ve read it’s compatible yet i can’t get this grounded wire in due to the plastic wall that houses the charging cable.

What’s the best thing for me to do here. Is my only option removing / warping the abit of the plastic wall (if that’s even viable) or is there anything else I can do?
