Arcade Joystick Mechanism V5 - Tiny Micro Switch Edition

Update: In a surprising twist to my normal issues with the uploading system, it will not save my images. Tried multiple times but nope. Same usual format and size, they work fine on the other sites. Luckily its not the worst problem to have as you can probably work out the detail from the stl images.

Firstly, Version 3 is still the best balanced option for your control panel and uses standard arcade micro switches. Version 4 Slimline also uses the standard arcade switches but has a lot looser feel (big deadzone) and would be great as a thumbstick.

So what about this version, version 5?

Well, like the last push buttons I released this mechanism uses the tiny micro switches and so it inherits the similar property of having ZERO deadzone. They feel nice and clicky but the action is instant and only requires the lightest touch. If this sounds appealing to you then awesome! Get downloading and printing!

I will be utilising this in an upcoming controller and working to its strengths, I think Plate05 & Pad01 (plus the Base) make a really nice Dpad.

The Stems, Pads and definitely the Ball will require a brim (or a raft) but your mileage may vary.

May your touch be light and your actions be instant!
