Are you trying to put that onto the WH stick base? _________________________ Intel i7 920 2.66Ghz D0 OC'd to 3.40GHz \| MSI GeForce GTX 660 Black Knight 2048MB GDDR5 \| Samsung F3 1TB \| Corsair 6GB DDR3 \| Gigabyte EX58-UD3R Intel X58 \| LG DVD±RW SATA DL RW \| Corsair TX 650W ATX2.2 PSU \| Antec 902 \| Coolermaster V8 CPU Cooler \| W7 HP 64 bit \| 27" iiyama monitor \| TM HOTAS Warthog #05225 \| TM Cougar MFDs \| Saitek Pro-flight combat pedals \| Track IR 5 Falcon BMS \| DCS A-10C \| Flaming Cliffs 3 \| RoF \| BoB 2 2.12 \| EECH 1.15 \| ArmA 3 "A nugget of purest green!"

I think it is preferable to use one of the other USB game controllers like leo bodnars or a uhid nano etc. You would not house it inside the stick, it would just be in a little black box closer to the computer. So you run your wires from the stick to the controller somewhere else and then plug that in.

JG52Krupi Member Registered: 04/18/11 Posts: 445 Loc: 180	Yeah, it seems perfect for me. I have no idea about programming and they have done all the leg work... My only problem is the wiring I still am not sure which wire does what but today I will be dusting off my old mans old multimeter and hopefully can find out Edited by JG52Krupi (01/28/12 07:13 AM)

Sokol1 Member Registered: 11/17/01 Posts: 921 Loc: Internet	Programn chips is easy, like to record a CD/DVD, just download the files (firmware) and follow instructions. I already (write) programn in some ATMEGA chips (Mjoy's). The wires in this KG-13 handles is two for each button (8 wires) or four wire plus one common? Sokol1 Edited by Sokol1 (01/28/12 01:20 PM)
