I’m so glad you included testing other levers, especially korean levers in the drone because it’s one of the reasons I don’t go for it since it’s not the friendliest for korean levers since it’s bottom mounted while most sticks I see mount them on the top panel instead. Much appreciated!

Let me know how you’ll be able to remove the upper casing and opening the rest of the stick w/ the 309mj installed, since the method of removing the bat top for the lever requires you to remove the clip, which I imagine will be hard for such a small hole.

I feel like Qanba have missed a massive opportunity by not allowing more space for the lever. I've got the original drone which is a great entry level stick, now I'm looking at getting a second to allow friends to play in person with me. I was excited when I saw the Drone II, but I won't buy one because I want one with enough space for me to try out a much wider range of levers. Great guide btw, it was your original Drone modding guide that I followed to upgrade my lever and buttons to Sanwa parts.

I’m a pad player and bought a Drone 2 based in part on your thoughts and insights, and I’m very happy with my purchase. This video is a great guide for modding too. Would the Sanwa stick you use be comparable with all Sanwa gates? I think I want an octagonal gate…but a video going over gate options would also be helpful! Thanks for all the work you’re doing here.

So, a note on the LS-32. There are two versions of that joystick relevant to the discussion, the ls-32 and the ls-32-01, where the 01 denotes that it has a pcb for a 5 pin connector. The ls-32 is just 4 microswitches without a pcb like most American and Korean joysticks, sometimes called the "fastener" version, and I was able to get one of those to fit in a Drone 1 with the default wiring harness by bending the pins. Generally speaking if short collar K-levers fit, that version should fit.

Have you tried installing a 309mj into the stick fully? Can’t imagine how you’d be able to open up the entire stick since the bat top and shaft of the lever comes in one piece unlike the sanwa’s where you have go screw on the ball top.

I've done a number of videos geared toward people who are either complete beginners or who want to start improving if they've struggled with these games for a while.
