Review: Great Stick for Beginning Learners - Is it the best stick? Probably not. But it's more than reliable if you're a casual player. If you're a competitive one, it's also very easily moddable so that you can upgrade it to tournament level. When I unpacked it, the first thing I noticed was how responsive it was. I had only ever played on controller or keyboard before, so it genuinely surprised me how quickly moves came out after pressing a button. As for the stick, it took a bit of adjusting to a fight stick's more wrist-based movement, but, after some practice, I'm far more precise with my inputs than I could dream of on controller or keyboard. I first got it around a year ago, and how has it held up? Very impressively. I play fairly rough with it, slapping the stick and buttons so loud I've gotten some complaints from my family. And yet, it's hardly shown its age. The only sign of wear and tear is that one button stays pushed for a second after my finger releases if I press it too lightly or slowly. I've never encountered this issue in a fighting game though, so it's beyond trivial. As I said before, it's also very moddable. I've heard great things about Sanwa buttons and levers, and I intend to switch some parts out for Sanwa counterparts. Many how-to YouTubers even use this stick, the Qanba Drone, as a model for videos on how to mod your stick, so there's that bit of extra convenience. Highly recommended!
Review: Entry level awesomeness - Got this for PS4, specifically soul caliber 5. First time purchasing a console stick and for someone who plays a few select games very often, it sees a decent amount of use. Reading comments of people who play fighting games with more dedication it’s clear that this is an entry level peripheral, but as someone who plays FPS, racing, hockey and a fighter, I like this stick a lot. Looks good, packs up well, hasn’t failed in any regard, definitely makes soul caliber much more fun to play. I found I also like it for the music game amplitude with the right button configuration. A little strange at first but quickly becomes very useful. If you’re looking for intermediate or higher you may not be thrilled, but if you’re looking for something affordable that works, I have no complaints. I’ll probably get a second one for fair play couch vs nights, because it’s a clear advantage against a standard controller in any fighting game imo

You need the correct cable to connect the JLF to the PCB.You can get the cable here, https://www.focusattack.com/spare-5-pin-female-harness-for-zero-delay-usb-encoder-pcb/Or buy the kit that includes the cable here at Amazon, which I have done. http://a.co/clOdTYF

A: It does not come with Sanwa parts. It is easy to mod. There is a video on YouTube showing how and what is needed.

**Q: Does the joystick have a square or octagon restrictor plate?**
A: Square (4)but comes with an oct gate (8)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good, but Octagon Gates could be cheaper
*by A***N on July 16, 2022*

I'm not a Fight Stick expert. This is literally my first fight stick, and it's the first I've ever laid hands on one too. I got this explicitly because all my arcade games are on my PC, PS3 Pro, and my PS4. I would have gotten an 8bitdo but Darkstalkers Chronicles on PS3 is a thing I own and 8bitdo (allegedly) doesn't do that. But enough about me, here's the review. Feels solid enough to me. It feels as solid as I remember arcade cabinents being when I was a kid. The colors...aren't my style, but the parts are way easy for even a noob like myself to swap out, so I could see myself swapping in some parts. (Though I absolutely had to use my jeweler's screwdriver to do it. It wasn't hard with a bit of dexterity though.) The controls..uh, I mean, it works as far as my super-out-of-practice eyes can tell? No clue about frames or whatever, ask a different review. My only real complaint is that I could not, for the life of me, find an octagonal gate for the joystick that came with this thing. I am not picky, and I would really have rather not spent the extra money on a replacement joystick, but I deciphered from some testing that I needed an octagon gate and there are just no compatible octagon gates (that I could find) for the joystick that came with this thing. (Shout outs to the reviewer whose sole remark/review on a Qanba-brand Octgate was "DOES NOT FIT QANBA DRONE." Many thanks.) So, I ended up having to buy a Sanwa joystick (and octo gate) using the money I would rather have used to buy buttons with colors other than black. (Kinda hard to see the buttons as is, but that's mostly aesthetics. I'll just save up and further consider color choice.) The replacement process was super easy, but only because I watched a how to video that showed there was a sixth screw under what I guess was a security sticker? (The video didn't show a sticker, but on my unit there was a sticker that was hiding a screw hole and I would have undoubtedly damaged the shell trying to pry it apart without knowing the sixth screw was there. If you're interested, the hidden screw was one of the middle ones.) So that could have gone bad, but didn't. tl;dr: expect to spend another $25-ish for a sanwa joystick + octogate, not because of any "quality reasons" (honestly I couldn't tell the difference, quality-wise, but what would I know?) but instead if you are the type who, like me, isn't about to be subtle with joystick motions and is going to end up riding the gate (which defines how far you can move the stick in directions, if you don't know). But this thing is great otherwise.
