Abstract

See full text

A mechanism for connecting and disconnecting return springs for multiple axis analog control sticks. The control stick, movable in two axes, can be fully spring centered along both axes, spring centered along one axis and frictionally positioned along the other axis, or freely frictionally positioned along both axes. Externally accessible pins are selectably operable to engage or disengage the centering springs to change control stick modes. Additionally, motion of the control stick in one or both axes may be substantially inhibited by the pins.
