It's funny that the thread icon is the MLG logo because my first fightstick was an MLG branded Madcatz TE.



I didn't actually use it that much because I never fully got into SF4 and it sat in my closet for awhile, I later sold it for about what I paid for it.

When I started playing SFV and then Xrd I got a Qanba Q1. I put silent Sanwas on it and replaced the lever with a Seimitsu LS-32.



This is the only pic I can find of it, I was holding $25 because I was jazzed about winning my Xrd local.

Later on I tried to replace the PCB on the Qanba and accidentally ruined it, so I bought a Hori RAPN which I still use.



My RAP has pretty similar parts as the Qanba did: silent Sanwa buttons, Seimitsu lever. I have a couple more stickers on it now than when I took this.

Suggestion: It might be cool to see a goon stick gallery in one of the OP threads. I like seeing what everyone's got.

Any guides or template for mapping keyboard for fighting games? I am interested in getting a mixbox or hitbox but just want to feel playing a fighting game on non controller.

My brain interpreted that link in the British sense and thought it meant "practising while high on cocaine".

I just installed The Link lever into my Hori Rap N and it's cool, but the dust cover feels like it's set a little too high now. I put the dust cover over the dust cover catcher o ring, but I might take the o ring off entirely. Has anyone ever used The Link? It didn't come with any instructions so I'm a little unsure that I set it up right.

I use one and I've just got round to putting a dust cover on it. It feels about right to me but I haven't tried putting it in my RAP enclosure to see how it sits. I'd imagine taking the O-ring off wouldn't make it sit that much lower, but the dust cover would fall off when you remove the stick.

I did have to file down the inside of the dust cover slightly to get it to sit right, I'm talking a tiny tiny bit of filing on this aftermarket aluminium dealie, so maybe that might help, if it's catching on the shaft?

I ended up just taking it off, i think the RAP N dust cover is already pretty tight around this shaft, so it was feeling awkward sitting too high. Plus I can just store the lever and dust cover in the cord compartment.. which isnt broken yet. Though now I have a little envy for those sticks that are really easy to open
