Description
4-axis joystick with three 10K potentiometers in one panel mount stick. Tilt the stick for X and Y, twist the ribbed grip for Z, and press the button on top for a momentary contact. It gives smooth analog control for robot arms, pan tilt rigs, camera controls, simulators, and machine control panels.
Each axis uses a standard 10K ohm potentiometer. Wire each potentiometer as a voltage divider across your supply and read the wiper on an ADC pin. Movement reads as a smooth voltage change, so it works with any board that has analog inputs.
Specs:
- Axes: X tilt, Y tilt, Z twist, plus momentary top button
- Potentiometers: 3 x 10K ohm, tolerance +/-20%
- Independent linearity: +/-1%
- Output smoothness: 0.5% maximum
- Resolution: essentially infinite
- Tilt range: 25 degrees each way from center
- Grip diameter: 35mm
- Base width: 40.4mm, overall width: 49.6mm, height approx. 84mm per the dimension drawing
- Material: plastic, sealed boot
- Model: JH-D400X-R4
Wiring:
- X and Y potentiometers: solder tabs on the sides of the base
- Z potentiometer: prewired, red and white are the reference ends, black is the wiper
- Top button: two blue wires
Check each wire with a meter before you solder, and confirm which end of travel reads high on your board.
Works with Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi Pico, STM32, and any board with analog inputs. For a Raspberry Pi single board computer, use an external ADC. Good for robot arm control, pan tilt camera mounts, flight simulator controls, CNC pendants, and custom game controllers.
Single unit, with Z axis and button wires attached. See the dimension drawing and wiring photo for mounting and hookup details.
