Glad to hear you like it :) If you dont mind reprinting the top, I have updated The Compact Digital Pinball Controller with Dpad-like backplate variations that hopefully will work as you wanted. Please report back if you have any issues.

2026-01-24 04:05:01 +0000 UTCGot my prototype wired up using an old cheap zero delay encoder I had. Right out the gate scored my second highest score on a Pinball FX table. LOVE this thing! I know you designed this with VPX in mind but a Steam edition with some sort of Dpad would be amazing. Resigned top plate maybe?

2025-12-06 00:41:32 +0000 UTCThe majority of the time I use RP2040 zero boards and drag & drop some files onto it: https://github.com/OpenStickCommunity/GP2040-CE For parts, do a search on Aliexpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/w/wholesale-arcade-micro-switch.html?spm=a2g0o.home.search.0 -Early Access- means I have just finished a project and it needs some more testing to make sure its ready for full release. I make changes, add info, images and when its ready, release to the printing sites. tldr: I will be adding more info.

2025-12-05 15:02:18 +0000 UTCIs there somewhere I can find more documentation for this? is there a wireless encoder you would recommend?
