It's just a concept right now but I wanted others to see that the scale doesnt quite match. Right now its just stacked on there and neck is a little too long.

Hey Troy! I'm glad to see you back at it! Pinhead needs to be finished...Is the joystick a new controller or a used one? Perhaps there is a problem with the contacts?

Problem is getting even a cheap mr clock radio will set you back 50 bucks but I see them for sale for 80 to 100 online lol. Ya know I just so happen to know a guy who might have a mr clock radio and a clear helmet front.;)

Bret, its a new joystick. It works fine hardware wise because I see it move on the Windows devices/ device properties.

Here I'm moving the left joystick to top left and right joystick to top right.

Update. I noticed that the left trigger moves the green dot all right and right trigger to all left.

Update#2 blush Nevermind blush I missed switch on the underside of the stick that fixed it. But in my defense, the screenshot showed it working,:D

hahahahaha - Glad to see you figured it out.

As you can see. The neck tilt forward and back oscillates. There is a little play in the joint but also the connection at the base isn't sturdy enough. As soon as my new part comes in I will replace it.
