+Invincible 2016 I bought it off someone who made a couple. If you want a custom wooden one made just for you check out facebook.com/FoeHammerCustomJoysticks/?fref=ts Let Doug know who sent you.
it actually bothers me that the directional harness HAS to be towards the buttons, I wire up all my sticks to the the jlf harness goes away from the buttons towards the outside of the case I personally just think it looks nicer but i guess if I have to bite the bullet and do it that way I will
I got a problem with my arcade stick that my father bought for a cheap prize. only 2 buttons are working. Try to map it on ppspp with my android. I mapped the 2 buttons at the upper right says pad1.[A] the other is pad1.[B]. And all the rest of the buttons are the same including the 2 small buttons they all function as pad1.00?. Please help me
I have a problem with my Crown 307 joystick with this board. Every other button works except my joystick only inputs "UP" (while pulling down, it is so weird)
Vincent Brian Bernardo check the 5 pin at the joystick.. it is most likely installed backwards. at the board it is keyed to go one way only, at the joy it is not. flip it and you'll be good to go
could you make controller like that with 2 joysticks and a Dpad? I have one but I have to use the Titan1 adapter to use the controller on ps4 and it's a pain.
Hey! Do you build custom controllers for sale? I'd love to buy a ps4 controller but wider so my hands can be at my side but can't find anything about it on the internet. I'm not too knowledgeable on electronics
+Kyle Nix Nope. You can just leave that disconnected and the signal will just pass through. Just make sure it is not touching any connection you are not supposed to with it. It is best to tie it back with something like a zip tie.
Awesome tutorial. Im using this same kit for a completely gutted TE1 case. Question. Any tips on where I could possibly screw down this PCB in that type of case? I don't have the screws available for that were included with the old PCB for the TE1.
+George Mooey I have not worked in that case but If the screwholes for the original pcb line up you might be to use that. Or you could try something like this www.focusattack.com/hardware-pcb/hardware-accessories/hardware-mounting/ And if all else fails... HOT GLUE!
+Fundando (Fundando) thanks! I don't have access to any of those tools yet, so for now, I think i'll ghetto mount it with some ties :P Also, question. Where'd you buy that case?
+Fundando (Fundando) hey, im having more trouble with this board. So I wired up all the buttons, but my 3k, 4k, and 4p buttons are not acting responsively. Testing it on PC and the button diagrams on the controller settings aren't properly showing up for 3k and 4k, and 4p has a really badly unresponsive button. Can you help me out? Its not the buttons themselves, as Ive tested different buttons and it didn't seem to fix the issue at all.
Got mine in the mail today, wired it up, and nothing recognizes it. Cant update the firmware, because I cant get the driver program to recognize that I plugged the stick in. I have the home and share wired up to start and select on my madcatz stick so that I can have them both pressed when I plug it in. Seems weird that it's home and share, and not options and share. Are there any extra windows drivers I'm missing? I just get an unrecognized usb device error.
cyclic730 Those legacy connectors? You should gather the courage to not add one and buy airpods and dongles. There's simply no room for a headphone jack. 😁
has anyone tried converting an old stick like an eightarc with this new ps4 module? I know it must work, but I'm not sure how elegant or convenient it would be to just rip out the old PCB and somehow mount this one. thanks
Can i use this to convert my old Madcatz Fightstick pro to a PS4 controller? I figured if i just replaced the PCB it would work, but i'm not really sure if the USB connector fits that PCB.
hey, so what can I do if my my buttons are activating without pressing them? I dont have the 3xp and 3xk buttons hooked up to any button on my stick with this PCB, but they'll activate whenever i move around sometimes. Is it possible to just cut the wires off to solve my issue?
A little more research and I discovered that, yes, you COULD just leave it banging around in the case. However, if you want to, Focus Attack does sell little plastic feet with glue to hold the PCB.
Ah, I see. I looked up PCB kits and Focus Attack also sells ones where the PCB's have holes in the corners. I was actually thinking about getting a Mayflash F300 and putting in that whole setup in there when the original parts poop out on me, basically screwing in the new one where the old one was as long as it fits, that is.
Is it possible to make one but have 4 buttons instead if a joystick. Is the re a board for that or a way to alter or modify the joystick board? I would love that since I can use d-pad or joystick very well. Thank's of you can answer.
Is there a way I can use 4 buttons for the d-pad rather than the stick? I've never used an arcade stick, and buttons seem like they'd be easier to use.
Can anyone show me where to get a case like this? I'm just looking for a simple wood enclosure with a 8-button layout and the ability to add my own artwork. Forhammer is overkill and he never gets back to me with my questions. Any advice?
Nice to see you include a joystick wiring harness for .187" connectors, but is there an option to get a button harness for them as well? I'd love to be able to use this to make a stick with IL buttons.
Is building a fight stick like shown in this video basically how all are made? I'm thinking of buying one from arcadeshock prebuilt but if building one is this easy I might do that
As a person whose country has a 54% import tax on videogame controllers but about 15% on electronic components, would it be cheaper to assemble my own stick and which pieces do I have to build myself?
Thanks for showing this here is a link to all the people who want to get started with their custom fight stick: support.focusattack.com/hc/en-us/articles/207447983-Definitive-list-of-parts-to-build-a-Fightstick#joystick
+Batman I am not familiar with the internals of the fight stick pro. It is likely though that you would take out all the internals and just plug everything to the buttons and joystick as seen and the video.
You can, but if you want to use the home button, you'll either have to drill another button hole or solder the wires directly to the one that's already there. Other than that, no problems since the layout is similar.
Will this PCB work with Nintendo Switch as well? I'm thinking of making a custom stick for Street Fighter 30th anniversary, which I got for the Switch.
Use the additional wiring wiring harness with the .187" quick disconnects and crimp .110" quick disconnects on all the ends. www.focusattack.com/110-2-8mm-open-barrel-non-insulated-quick-disconnect-terminal/
Sounds great! Is that the only thing that comes to mind of what I would need? I have a setup already but I just want to switch out pcbs for this one. Also, does this handle SOCD well? Reason Im switching is my current pcb inputs up-left if I hit 3 cardinal directions at once hahah
There's a couple stores online that sell simple kit boxes if you do some google research, but really you can do it all yourself with some basic power tools.
I followed your video and all the buttons worked beautifully! However, my sanwa stick is not functioning properly. At first, I plugged it in upside down so the controls were flipped. So I plugged it with the red markings down and now the controls are still flipped except all of the directions don't work except down (which is up). Any help? Thanks in advance.
Probably a dumb question but Can I use these fightsticks as a Dpad for FPS with a mouse too I have no finger function due to an accident and am looking for a way to move around and push buttons with my palms. Wondering if the PC will not recognize the controller for some dumb reason before I buy one
Most games will not automatically detect a dpad for movement. However, as long as you're playing on PC, you could get a keyboard pcb and solder buttons to it. I'd recommend looking for a busted mechanical keyboard, as it's much simpler to solder to than a rubber membrane. Then you'd just tuck it in a box, and you could hook it up as a regular keyboard.
I purchased this breakout board and found this video very helpful. Got my stick up and running in an evening. Thanks so much!
Glad to help!
I want to know how to build that exact fight stick Omg it looks so good
Best Custom FightStick Ever Seen Before !!!!!!
That looks beautiful. Cheers for info
u still gotta buy the buttons and wires might as well buy the whole thing
FANTASTIC
Did you make the case or did you buy it and built it to your liking?
+Invincible 2016 I bought it off someone who made a couple. If you want a custom wooden one made just for you check out facebook.com/FoeHammerCustomJoysticks/?fref=ts Let Doug know who sent you.
How much size of the case and do you have template?
Id like to make a case, but wood is meh.
i would really like to see this type of PCB but for 360 and Xbone
see my universal fightstick video.
Really nice and helpful video. Thanks.
+Smael Neo Thanks! I am glad you enjoyed.
it actually bothers me that the directional harness HAS to be towards the buttons, I wire up all my sticks to the the jlf harness goes away from the buttons towards the outside of the case I personally just think it looks nicer but i guess if I have to bite the bullet and do it that way I will
Will it work on ps3.please tell☺
Definitely is A LOT easier if you buy the pieces and just have to assemble it.
Se pasó por la raja la construcción de la carcaza? saludos.
Great video
Is there a video that shows us how to make the stick enclosure like yours?
The link in the description is broken
Box size pleaae tell me
Lenth x width
And upper and down size of box
aprox 9x14
35 x 22.9 x 6 cm
Why do so many fightsticks use USB type B?
So how would you map it for mortal Kombat cause I understand the punch and kick 1, 2 but I don't know how I would map the block and etc.
Can you also add one extra button on each side for pinball games??????????????????????
Yoda I Am absolutely
What are the required materials again?
So what USB would I use to connect it to a PS3
I got a problem with my arcade stick that my father bought for a cheap prize. only 2 buttons are working. Try to map it on ppspp with my android.

where did you get the case?????
Can i do this for a arcade joystick for PC ?
medens memor yes this works on of also
Can you help me with the measurements of the tables that you used on your stick to create mine so anyway? Please friend, I would appreciate it

So.. What happened?
can i use these same instructions to build a mixbox or do keyboard keys need different wires than button keys?
What is the thickness of the top panel where you mounted the JLF joystick and buttons
nice playmat. what card games u play?

but can you put RGB light in it ?
Yes, but I would go a different route for LED lighting. Using this board is easy to install but not meant to add on.
can you cut the extra wires
where can i get a XBOX 360 PCB that is already soldered with wires? i can't do the soldering myself.
check out vickomods.com
Is it an issue that you have unconnected quick connect ground wire on your daisy chain floating in there?
+Kyle Nix Nope. You can just leave that disconnected and the signal will just pass through. Just make sure it is not touching any connection you are not supposed to with it. It is best to tie it back with something like a zip tie.
so with those 2 extra wires you could of had an 8 button setup?
yup

I liked the tutorial friend, what are the measures of that arcade stick and the image of akuma?
Greetings from Peru
where can i get the wood board, stick and buttons from?
Hi what is the size of the box width & lenght want to make my fightstick. tnx
I don't have it anymore to measure but check out slagcoin.com
How come theres no connector for L1 and L2?
Got mine in the mail today, wired it up, and nothing recognizes it. Cant update the firmware, because I cant get the driver program to recognize that I plugged the stick in. I have the home and share wired up to start and select on my madcatz stick so that I can have them both pressed when I plug it in. Seems weird that it's home and share, and not options and share. Are there any extra windows drivers I'm missing? I just get an unrecognized usb device error.
+Sean Horton Try using a different usb port or shorter usb cable. The drivers should install themselves on windows 10. Are you on windows 10?
I bought this and the wiring harness doesn't fit the micro switches for happ buttons. What can I do?
you can buy adapters that change the connections to happ buttons
is there any way to add a headphone jack to this board?
cyclic730 Those legacy connectors? You should gather the courage to not add one and buy airpods and dongles. There's simply no room for a headphone jack. 😁
how can i get the box?
has anyone tried converting an old stick like an eightarc with this new ps4 module? I know it must work, but I'm not sure how elegant or convenient it would be to just rip out the old PCB and somehow mount this one. thanks
does this come with the case
Great instructional vid. Did you customer make the stick case as well?
Nevermind I saw your reply to this same question.
Where you buy the pcb?
Can i use this to convert my old Madcatz Fightstick pro to a PS4 controller? I figured if i just replaced the PCB it would work, but i'm not really sure if the USB connector fits that PCB.
hey, so what can I do if my my buttons are activating without pressing them? I dont have the 3xp and 3xk buttons hooked up to any button on my stick with this PCB, but they'll activate whenever i move around sometimes. Is it possible to just cut the wires off to solve my issue?
I want to make one for xbox one how to do it please?
Check out one of my other videos on the universal boards.
I found many
thanks ;) even though there is a part that I do not understand very well,
and good work in passing ( sorry for my english )
Just ordered my buttons from you guys@!
The only thing I'm wondering is how to mount the PCB to the case. How do you do that? Or are you just letting it bang around loose in the case?
I was wondering the exact same thing.
A little more research and I discovered that, yes, you COULD just leave it banging around in the case. However, if you want to, Focus Attack does sell little plastic feet with glue to hold the PCB.

I know you already found a solution but you could also glue plastic standoffs into the case and screw it to that.
Yup, i have it that way.
Is it possible to make one but have 4 buttons instead if a joystick. Is the re a board for that or a way to alter or modify the joystick board?
I would love that since I can use d-pad or joystick very well.
Thank's of you can answer.
This is possible but you would have to rewire the joystick harness. You might look at the new board by brook instead.
Is there a way I can use 4 buttons for the d-pad rather than the stick? I've never used an arcade stick, and buttons seem like they'd be easier to use.
yup check out threads about "hitbox" on shoryuken.com for layouts.
Work for pc too?
Can anyone show me where to get a case like this? I'm just looking for a simple wood enclosure with a 8-button layout and the ability to add my own artwork. Forhammer is overkill and he never gets back to me with my questions. Any advice?
what is the size for the joystick hole?
24mm
Could I add LED lights to this?
U can google sanwa button they have light button
Can you make 1 that is made for free roam games ?
There is no analog support on any of these boards. Anything is possible with some fabrication and rewiring a controller
Nice to see you include a joystick wiring harness for .187" connectors, but is there an option to get a button harness for them as well? I'd love to be able to use this to make a stick with IL buttons.
I do not make this product and would ask the folks at focusattack. Or you could just crimp .187 connectors. they also sel .110 - .187 adaptors
Fundando Wow, the vid was so pro I thought you were with FA. Good work, and sorry for the mistake.
Does this works for xbox one?
how to update frimware ?

Does it have a mic jack input for chatting?
www.brookaccessory.com/Fighting%20Board/list.html yes but not this board u need buy another one
Beautiful amazing i want something like that
should i just rewire my old 360 arcade stick to make it work on Ps4
i seriously dropped SFV because i didnt have a compatable stick
Hello I have the madcatz fightstick pro would I be able to use the cables already in the board ?
+Batman I am not familiar with the internals of the fight stick pro. It is likely though that you would take out all the internals and just plug everything to the buttons and joystick as seen and the video.
+Fundando (Fundando) ok great tutorial btw
+Batman thanks!
You can, but if you want to use the home button, you'll either have to drill another button hole or solder the wires directly to the one that's already there.
Other than that, no problems since the layout is similar.
+ORIGINALSMAPPER yea I think I'm going to drill out a hole for a new button
Do u all have the link that sell the box really cheap?
where did you get the case?
It's weird that most of these layouts have the joystick so high.
Positions the hands higher to let the wrist rest in a more comfortable position.
Will this PCB work with Nintendo Switch as well? I'm thinking of making a custom stick for Street Fighter 30th anniversary, which I got for the Switch.
Does it work on pc
Did you need to put anything else with the stick, like a spring or a restrictor?
All those are optional enhancements for different playstyles. I do like a slightly bigger restrictor.
Nice video, did the pcb screws come with the pcb or did you need to buy the sepretly?
I had them laying around from one of my various computer builds. they sell some mounting solution on their site.
How would I approach using this kit for making a Hitbox? I really want to buy this but I see its 5 pin for joysticks
Use the additional wiring wiring harness with the .187" quick disconnects and crimp .110" quick disconnects on all the ends.

The brook pcb has socd cleaner support built in. THat should be all you need.
Thanks for the reply! Hopefully I don't mess anything up lol.
Did it end up working? if so will you let me know how you did it, Im still a little confused. Thanks :)
What did you use to mount the PCB to the case
motherboard standoffs
have an ebay link? or product model number thanks
Anyone know where I can buy wooden case and a top with the standard capcom 6 grid?
There's a couple stores online that sell simple kit boxes if you do some google research, but really you can do it all yourself with some basic power tools.
@@DelightfulTyrant could you link that?
how much cost all? including case
Where can I get a wooden case like yours? Some of the links in your video description don’t work.
Mike Sandoval foahammershop makes some of the best wooden cases. Message them on Facebook. I got this from a forum
Member of shoryuken.com
Fundando, thank you so much for this awesome video. I will look into foahammershop.
it works on xbox one?
Is the Orion OG I want it 👀
It is sooooo old school. I love it
Hey please where can i buy a woodn box for fightstick
look up foahammer shop or arcapc.mx
or for a sweet metal one allfightsticks.com
Mohammed Amine EL AMRANI there are some on eBay for sale. Search for "custom wood fightstick"
Is it compatible with PS3?
Hi silly question when you print the layout in the printer, what setting is it on? Paper size is set to letter??
I don't print these myself. I have a commercial printer where I work and just give it to the team here to print off for me.
Fundando hi i have another question. How did you do.the sunken side button on the fight stick? What sizes did you use? Thank you
I followed your video and all the buttons worked beautifully! However, my sanwa stick is not functioning properly. At first, I plugged it in upside down so the controls were flipped. So I plugged it with the red markings down and now the controls are still flipped except all of the directions don't work except down (which is up). Any help? Thanks in advance.
Do you have the wood width and depth information for the base of the stick? I want to make one myself.
I did not build this myself. check out slagcoin.com for some info on making your own
Probably a dumb question but Can I use these fightsticks as a Dpad for FPS with a mouse too I have no finger function due to an accident and am looking for a way to move around and push buttons with my palms. Wondering if the PC will not recognize the controller for some dumb reason before I buy one
since there is no analog control, even if you could map it, it would be less than ideal.
Most games will not automatically detect a dpad for movement. However, as long as you're playing on PC, you could get a keyboard pcb and solder buttons to it. I'd recommend looking for a busted mechanical keyboard, as it's much simpler to solder to than a rubber membrane. Then you'd just tuck it in a box, and you could hook it up as a regular keyboard.
