Froglips Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 I want to go into my Cyborg USB and disconnect the switches on the base to move them up to the controller handle area. I recently opened up a Thrustmaster stick (low end) and all the buttons were mounted on a circuit board. I tried to disassemble but just a no go. Just thought I would ask if anyone had ever seen the inside of a Cyborg stick. If the buttons are on a circuit board then I won't bother trying. to open it. Kurt "Froglips" Giesselman wishing someone would do a two seat sim like LB2...I ain't much of a pilot but I am a helava good shot.

Feed Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 I believe the buttons on the Cyborg are PCB mounted, as you'll find on almost any similar grade of controller - but don't let that stop you! You can simply buy the switches and buttons you want to use, the solder them to the existing board, or replace the board (many of the boards in the stick section are very simple, and the circuits can be traced directly to a wire that connects to the main circuitboard inside the base. Many, many folks here have done something similar. Give it a go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
