Hey Guys,
today i started to work on my Pinball Controller. I´m using a board from an wireless ps3 controller with attached wires on it to connect the Buttons.
This is the easier part of the work, cause i did that a couple of times.
There are two challenges I have to master. First a nice Plunger Mechanic. And then a effective Nudge Mechanic, which I think is the most heaviest work on that Build.
And because I love challenges, I started today with the mechanics for the Nudge with a temporary build to test it out. (Maybe I use it, but lets see)
So here is my NUDGEBOX
As you can see, the PS3 Controller Board is attached to the ground, with an extended left analog stick. At the upper part there a four pull springs in each direction,
which brings the stick right back to the middle. At the top of the stick I placed some weight as pendulum. It´s adjusted very well now, and a smart shake makes the
stick move to nudge the table. Also is adjustable to make it more or less sensible. 3 Hours of work and adjusting. But damn this works
Hope you like it
