Simplejoy - PRO

The SimpleJoy series is an excuse for me to make more retro joysticks, but with an emphasis on the basics, with a minimal amount of parts required, no supports needed, print in place, easy click together construction and not too high on the filament usage....Next up, here is my take on the Competition Pro series but with the rounded back end from a Powerplay Cruiser. Possibly THE cutest retro joystick I have ever designed, compact and comfortable with my favourite type of grip, the ball top. Whether you wire the joystick up straight to a D plug or use a pi zero encoder, I would suggest wire-tying the incoming cable to the loop on the inside of the base, and maybe as an extra step, a bit of hot glue to anchor things down.
