Legochuck’s thread

My thread

I actually also followed u/madmexicano’s thread and hooked my stock volume switch to a mini amplifier chip, a PAM 8803, and back to the stock speakers. This allows me to control the volume with the stock switch.

I also used the IcculusPlan for using the stock on/off switch to power on/off the raspberry pi.

Oh, I forgot to explain why I had to modify legochuck’s design. He glued the “key” down to make it work. His hardware must also be slightly different than mine because the throw on the joystick wasn’t quite far enough for me, so I had to widen the gate a bit. I added a cap that fit on the key and has a little protrusion that fits into the flathead groove on the base of the stick so that I wouldn’t have to glue it. Printing it in pla was too brittle but petg works great.

thats insane. i thought i was pretty OCD about reading every single post that comes in on the 1up sub but i completely missed this when you posted it.

i dont have a 3D printer but given the popularity of 1ups and modding i can't believe someone hasn't come up with a solution for the 4way/8way issue. i am using thumb screws to make pulling my panel off easier to get to the gate but i feel like a neanderthal compared to what you've done.

1up should be shot for releasing the burger time cab with an 8-way because of the other games.

i saw the 2 threads about the elegant 'power down' and using stock volume control but was too lazy to implement either of them.

now that i'm moving to a pi4 and larger screen after doing my 'test run' with a pi2 i'd like to make the whole cabinet more robust.
