Thankyou t would be very much appreciatedI will see if there is any around my way and if so I'll let you know.
I received mine yesterday and im inclined to say I like it. Im going to install a stiffer spring and hopefully like it even more.I was able to sell the game and DLC for over $20. The stick I kept cause it looks cool..but..ugh..it's complete crap compared to every other stick I have. Even the Tekken 6 stick is better.
My biggest issue with mine are the corners. When I walk back or forward I can rock the joystick up and down and there is a HUGE deadzone. It seems the corners are closer to up and down than they are to left and right. It makes moving/jumping seem really funky. I don't have this problem with my other fightsticks. Let me know if you encounter the same thing.I received mine yesterday and im inclined to say I like it. Im going to install a stiffer spring and hopefully like it even more.
The pulse setting takes effect when a rumble signal is activated. I know what you are saying about the corners, ever so slight dead zone on mine. If I could slap a octo gate on it I would but read you have to mod a lil to go that route.My biggest issue with mine are the corners.

Other than that big issue with mine the stick is fine, though, I never did figure out how to get the Pulse option with the lights to work.
The gate is easy to change. Watch the video belowThe pulse setting takes effect when a rumble signal is activated. I know what you are saying about the corners, ever so slight dead zone on mine. If I could slap a octo gate on it I would but read you have to mod a lil to go that route.
If you just want to hack the existing assembly with JLF parts here's a video of someone doing it:

That's just swapping the top of the stick. You can replace the actual components of the lever as well which affects how it actually moves.
Oh sweet, I was under the impression you would have to replace the microswitch assembly with a sanwa one. Good to know, might have a spare in my parts box. Thanks for the info cagbro!The gate is easy to change. Watch the video below
Nope, as long as the game fits that's it. The only time you would have to replace the switches would be in you wanted to use some combination of parts that didn't trigger the switches.Oh sweet, I was under the impression you would have to replace the microswitch assembly with a sanwa one.

I didnt have a spare octo but did find a circle gate that i installed. Replaced the stock spring with 2 seimitsu LS33 springs. Its going to take some getting used to but the feels are about medium now. Its not as tight as I wanted. I guess ill put in a order to focus attack for some assorted extra springs to experiment. That Sanwa 2lb. tension spring should do the trick. While im at it ill snag a octo insert as well.Nope, as long as the game fits that's it.

It's OK and the price is right. Having spent over $50 for it I would probably have been somewhat unhappy but you can't complain too much for no more than $20-30 if you dump the game. Far from perfect but I'm going to swap the compatible parts from a JLF I'm not using into the stick and see how much that changes things.Still on the fence, but I only have 3 fighting games, MK, Injustice Ultimate, and MVC3.
I am not sure I invest enough time in them for even $20.
Any impressions on the stick? I have been looking at fightpads as well.
When I go into the orders and click the order number it goes to an order details and says PS3 at the end of mine.Got mine, but they sent me a ps3 version. I swear I ordered 360 version, but order confirmation and emails don't list version. And now my order history shows ps3 version. I wonder if they changed some orders since they have more ps3 in stock still?
so basically you got a hori, with premium parts for $80, wow whoever confirmed your order should be fired!When I go into the orders and click the order number it goes to an order details and says PS3 at the end of mine.
Now I wouldn't be surprised though. When they had this on sale for like $80 some moons ago when the game just came out I ordered one for PS3 and this is what I got:

Correct and that's what I was talking about originally about needing to put in some work to do things like that because you actually have to make alterations to the housing. It's basically a JLF clone though so there are compatible parts between the two if you want to improve the feel without going to the lengths required to replace the whole stick.This thread has some nice feedback, it doesn't look like the sanwa-JLF mount will fit in the injustice stick. Quoted from someone modding the stick
I'm going to try this weekend or next week, to change the joystick to a Sanwa JFL, and the Sanwa button switches.http://forums.shoryuken.com/discussion/174669/injustice-gods-among-us-battle-edition-arcade-stick
This thread has some nice feedback, it doesn't look like the sanwa-JLF mount will fit in the injustice stick. Quoted from someone modding the stick
"Actually the mounting holes do not match, and you have to drill to widen those holes for a Sanwa, Seimitsu or Crown stick to fit. I compared the mount holes with both a flat JLF mount plate and several flat Seimitsu flat mount plates the SE, MS, RE and P-40. The VF and SS seimitsu plate will not mount.
I treat the Crown 303-FK as you would the JLF plate and widen holes for mounting. You would want longer screws with washers. See my LS-32 install guide for details.
I can't say if the mount height would be correct, as there little space inside. Do not quote me on this, but from what I can tell, you might be able to swap the Crown 303-FK's mount plate for the stock Qanba plate inside the Injustice stick.
Also if the joystick is not a Seimitsu LS-55, 56, 58, Sanwa JLF or the Qanba Clone you will have to engage in some case cutting of the bottom panel."
That's the thread I created on SRK. For anyone interested in potentially modding it, read the entire first post as it should answer most (if not all) of the basic questions.EldritchOnRye said:Simple stuff like that's no big deal but if you want to say swap out the stick for the more popular Sanwa or Seimitsu you're going to be doing some involved modding to make it compatible. It's a solid stick that falls below the TE level Madcatz sticks but above the smaller cheap sticks that most beginners start with.
I'm sure most people that would be buying this won't be going anywhere near that in depth anyway but it's worth mentioning. Like I said I'm getting one of these just because I don't have a PS3 fightstick and it's a world better than anything else that I would consider reasonable.

Yup, all of the components are manufactured by Qanba. Even the square gate says, "Qanba" on it.CaoPi said:Yeah thanks for the video, I meant replacing the PCB part in case any directions go bad. Others confirmed that the stick is a Quanba according to SRK forums.
Same effing thing happened to me!! I returned it to Gamestop B&M thinking I'd just go home and order a 360 version when LO AND BEHOLD - OUT OF **#(@&#& STOCK ONLINE!!Got mine, but they sent me a ps3 version. I swear I ordered 360 version, but order confirmation and emails don't list version. And now my order history shows ps3 version.

ORLY? How does the stick compare to the one at gamestop, my guess is that it is a little less responsive but it is super easy to mod.It's cheaper on the psn
