Thumb Joystick 2 Axis Analog Output

This analog joystick is modeled after the familiar joysticks found on PlayStation 2 controllers, making it ideal for game controllers, robotics, and custom electronics projects. Directional movements are detected using two independent 10K potentiometers—one for the X-axis and one for the Y-axis—while the joystick also includes a select button that activates when the stick is pressed down.

Designed for comfort and precision, the joystick features a spring-loaded center return and a cup-style knob for ergonomic handling.
