Collar works as a restrictor, and changing the shape will change significantly how the lever operate. For so long the shape of the restrictor haven't change too much. We are already familiar with the circular, octagonal, and square shape, they are works great for different playstyle. Most Fighting Games executions are focused on the lower half area (down, forward, and back) for "up" direction only use for jumping, side stepping, and normal moves. It is because Fighting Games was designed for Arcade Stick controller, and inputting upper directions is harder compared to lower direction.So we have an idea to make the restrictor for "up" direction shorter,...

Golden Lever Base is like a mother of the lever, it holds all parts together. And the Rubber/Silicone tension is the soul of the lever, it gave characteristic to the lever. We don't want to compress the silicone on it's neutral state, we want to keep it relax and free from tension on its neutral. So we find ways to make variation without changing this concept and only change how the user feels tension when operating the lever. There are 3 things that we change to give different feels for this Black Base. 1. We make the hole under the silicone smaller, from...

There are many user who curious and ask for lighter shaft weight, so we try to provide shaft made from Aluminium and anodize it in Gold. We use the silver shaft design which have wider flange at the middle that have better support and stability. This feature is possible since we use bigger rod material, for more information about this feature please read Silver Shaft blog post. Compare to Silver Shaft which use Stainless Steel material (density around 7.8g/cm3), ALU shaft density is less than 3g/cm3, so the ALU shaft weigh is less than half of Silver Shaft. But of course SS...

Black Bearing Actuator offer smooth actuation and maintenance free applications

We have redesign the GL bushing by adding a Ring on it. this will solve the reduce actuator friction against edge of the switch hinge, Jammed Bearing issue, and gives more consistent actuation.
