I'm sure that's the case for a true 1 to 1 reproduction, but I'm not looking for 100% repro. I've read some posts saying you can't use a skate wheel because it's not sized correctly. The next one I make will be the Beta model. I'm currently testing this one now and making notes on what to improve. This is just a prototype, and it has a few issues, but it's enough of a start for me to know this will work. After some 3D layout work (and some hours on printing) I came up with this: Using what I learned from making my Cyclone Controller, I decide to use a mouse PCB to track the roller. I'm okay with that if the price is right. Yes, I know that by using a wheel (because of the hubs) It can never back light them.
I found these skateboard wheels (70 mm dia.
With this as my best guess based on the couple images I found I worked up a sketch and then went looking for a reasonable looking roller. If my dimensions are way off, please let me know. Using that picture (which still wasn't 100%) I guessed on the dimensions. He showed a template for cutting a hole for these roller controllers. I then stumbled on website of someone rebuilding a Major Havoc. I had a hard time finding dimension for the controller. My ThinCades are always done on the budget, so this controller had to be on one as well. After doing a search to try to find a controller like that, I was shocked at the cost of just the controller! After finding some good photos of the controller itself, I decided to take a stab at building one. The cabinet that I played it on did have the memorable roller controller. Of course I remember playing Major Havoc back in the arcades very briefly, but I remember thinking what a great game. In doing so, I try to decide if the control scheme is doable. Well, I'm always looking into different ThinCades that I might want to build.
