Name of this joystick? was created by djowGer
hey guys. going through my old amiga stuff the other day i found this joystick, which i used for a keypad production unfortunately a while back. This one has an exellent grip, and springs for microswitches, but due to its condition it is probably unfixable. :-X
weird thing is that it has no name on it, no brand, no nothing, only a pat. no. So maybe some of you know this joystick by name, as i would like to find a new one on ebay.
Go have a look at the photos.

doesn t look like a
Quickshot Apache/Python
to me, more like a knock-off of sorts.
A pretty cool one though, nice find.

The QS-131 which Lindholm/Klaris/Lobo.... uses is just great, but they usually don t last that long in the hands of sensible player . If this was a QS or a SIGMA/Technoplus copy i think i would know it, and it would most likely have the name printed on it also.
This dart-wader-like-clone is not the case unfortunately. I do recall the thumb button to have an auto fire switch like the ones playa linked to.
I think you re right Retri, but would be really cool to know who made it though. I don t recall having seen a similar copy on ebay ever. Have you?
Coming to think of it, one of the joysticks i destroyed for making the keypads had this following inscription on the cable. I guess you could call that a kind of lead ;D
Will try my friend google and the danish Amiga forums.
