There are a couple games where'd like to invert the X, the Y or both axises. I was planning to use a PC15 one handed joystick for my stick and "half a hitbox" as my action buttons on everything from modern to pre-crash consoles.  I have an Xbox Adaptive controller, which uses a PC15 via a USB converter.

 

There are 2 reasons I want a voltage based PC15 axis converter.  The first is I don't know if "system settings" on the XAC hold up on other consoles after going through Brook converters.   The second is there is no way to invert the X axis on the settings of an XAC in the machine.

 

Is there such a thing as a PC15 voltage based Axis Inverter?  If so, I'd like to know where to find them, and I'd like to order 2 Xs and 2Ys.

 

If not, can one be built?

 

I assume that 0 voltage is one axis extreme and maximum analog voltage is the analog extreme.

 

It seems harder than the Vectrex pin system, which if I understand that system has zero voltage as neutral, and maximum voltage as maximum north, south, east, and west.

 

BTW does the 5200 have 2 pins for X and Y, or 4 pins for N S W E?  Also is there a thing other than the original 5200 controller that has non-centering analog, because most of the analog 5200 games rely on a non centering stick, namely  Super Breakout, Kaboom, Star Wars, and Missile Command.  Fighting that centering resistance on a centering PC15 in those 4 games are tough.

 

I think i can have built a Y adapter that can accept my "half a hitbox" as button inputs and use a real 5200 stick in a non-centering analog way.
