Extreme Competition Pro Joystick Repair
About this video
Jan Beta sets out to rebuild two Competition Pro joysticks smashed into pieces, gluing the case parts, fitting new micro switches and working on the electronics.
Good to know: Soldering means burns and fumes; old solder contains lead. Contact cleaner is flammable and its fumes need ventilation, as does the glue.
Why watch it
Both sticks arrive shattered to bits, in the maker's words. The glue and contact cleaner are named under the video, and earlier Thundercats C64 videos are linked.
