Mayflash Arcade Stick Mod Part 3

[darksantos1]

whats the total cost of all the materials including solding iron and solder and the wires and stuff

[Vareous]

@darksantos1 Well lets see it was a while ago but ill try list everything out. Keep in mind this is all in Australian Dollars:

$20 to $30 on tools (including wires, soldering iron, solder and all that)

around $100 on all the parts however I bought parts for 2 sticks not just 1 and that $100 includes the $25 shipping it cost to come from Korea to Australia.

The arcade sticks themselves were $30 each but the shipping from Japan to Australia was like $50 for 2.

@darksantos1

In the end it all works out to be around $115 per stick, witch is less than half the price a DECENT quality stick like a TE would cost me, in Australia they retail for almost $300. Hell even a normal 360 or PS3 Game Pad retail for almost $100 in Australia... shit is whack!

[darksantos1]

@Vareous so what if im a casual fighter, i like to only buy one for fun i dont know if i have the heart for modding

[darksantos1]

can you add graphics to the mayflash fighting stick case like the top because all black seem blah.

What kind of quick disconnects do I need to get? Hell while I'm here what else am I going to need to buy for this mod? I started thinking I could just get a joytron revolution, some sanwa buttons and a stick and throw em together. Now I know why the Madcatz TE's are $200

@Shadowii2 it looks like it doesn't matter which side, as long as you use the same side for every single button. But I was wondering the same thing, if I can just solderthem seeing as I can't seem to find any quick disconnects

@Shadowii2 it looks like it doesn't matter which side, as long as you use the same side for every single button

[pspgosucks]

which one is the ground on the buttons? Does it matter which one of the things on the buttons that you connect the ground to?

[Vareous]

@pspgosucks the ground can be on either side of the buttons as long as you put it on the SAME side for every single button

[pspgosucks]

@Vareous Ok :), thx a lot.:)

Hey, I'm trying this out fairly soon. What kind of wire do I need? And the connectors? What are the exact names I'm looking for? Thanks.

@tjprodigy

lol yep you have a sharp ear, my room mate had just gotten it that night and was playing while I did this

[TheWolf395]

@Vareous what are the little things that go on the wires called to make the daisy chain? u said it in the video, but i couldnt understand you, sorry.

[shanewin]

where do you get those things that connect to the wire that connect to the buttons?

[Vareous]

@shanewin

You should be able to get them from any electronics shop. I think the most popular one in the US is Radio Shack? I bought mine from a place called Bunnings, Im not sure if thats an Australian only chain tho. There are a couple of different sizes, from memory I think the ones I used were 2.5mm

@Vareous I thought That was a Bunnings catalogue, Thanks for sharing this vid..!
