more than words, here's the pic:

more stylish

as dusty as comfortable B)

GP2X + drill + my old GP32 + my beloved swiss army knife

 

[Pixman]

Blasphemy! How could you destroy yer old GP32
I hope you used spare parts >

(Cool mod btw)

 

[wyefye]

Nice. Love the Ingenuity.

 

[Mr. Anderson]

it won't solve the deadzone "problem" some are whining about. But it sure helps with the grip, the original D-Stick ist just too slipery...

 

[Hobo]

U should paint it black so it goes with the rest of the unit :lol: :lol:

i have no spare parts

but it should still work on the GP32 (i added a little piece of compressed-air duster pipe inside, i can remove it ) and there are spare parts on liksang if i wanna renew my GP32 anyway

​

it sure doesn't ! it's actually making it worse since it's a bit higher

but i have a very dry skin and i absolutely can't use the original stick, too slippery, so it's MUCH better for me

but i found that in "real situation" i use only the left bump of the GP32's stick (as on the picture ) , and technically the movements i need to do for that are not much different than when using a 1,5cm wide cross !

i was hesitating about making it shorter or not, but this last discover makes me think i'll keep it like this

Cool mod! Im going to do one using an old N64 control pad as soon as I can be bothered not sure if its gonna be worth it though. Might have a look round some second hand shops see what other controls pads I can find aswell.

 

[Rayek]

i don't think you needed to destroy your gp32... lik sang says they have replacement gp32 sticks that they're selling for like 2 usd.

cool regardless, i don't dig the difference in look, but hey, if it works, it works

mhh yes! I was thinking about using a GCN analogue instead, it has nice rubber on it, no hard plastic. However I guess it will look awkward and I'm not sure if I should kill a GCN pad just now.....

-Oh wait.. I still have a dead n64 one *remembers* ok Stick, you're done for!

 

[beanfarmer]

cool mod d00d i have a shit load of broken xbox pads hear so i might try useing that if i find mine unconfortable when mine arrives

​

yup, i'm thinking about buying a dozen to continue my mad experiments

the problem with N64, xbox, ngc etc pads is that they are not on a shaft, you have to work on them more than one who is just pinned on something, also be careful about their diameter, i had to cut the GP32's one a bit at the base or there's no contact on the microswitches

 

[Rayek]

it also looks like you could've cut a few mm off the bottom of the stick, as it stands up pretty tall.

 

[nik166]

yep, i surely can, but i don't know how much and i only have one of these sticks right now

 

[nubie]

Ugly, and technologicially unsound.

but I would have done it if I had a GP32 stick

nuff said

 

[triton]

the n64 superpad stick is on a metal rod, i ahve a busted one so i will certianly look into it later today

 

[Mr. Anderson]

However, I still hope for GPH to show us a nice collection of original black sticks

 

[Paradox]

take the rubber skin off a dual-shock playstation controller and put it over the knob, i did that with my N64 controllers, the stick on the N64 pads where horrendous in button-mash games, they would give you blisters, so i took the rubber top/skin off my psx dual shock pad and put it on there

(i dont think it was an official dual shock pad though)

 

[triton]

kidt looked at my superpad, its got a plastic concave stick that almost fits on the 2x, a tiny bit of modding and it will fit quite comfortablely, feels pretty good too, concave!
