Note: This joystick will arrive set in the standard 8-way mode. To switch to 4-way mode, remove the plastic restrictor plate from the bottom of the joystick. Take a close look at the center ring which is actually rotatable inside the main restrictor plate. Next, place two fingers underneath the plate and push the center ring slightly towards you. Doing this you can see the center ring will slightly lift upwards. Now while the center ring is lifted, rotate in a clockwise direction 45 degrees and the ring will then lock into the 4-way position. If needed to change back to the 8-way position just simply reverse the ring direction and it will lock back into the 8-way position.
Do you have both the long and short shaft zippys joysticks or just the long shaft zippys?
I just bought a kit. Do I need an 8-way joystick or will 4-way suffice?
