The Gravity Joystick Module V2 provides two-axis analogue control (X and Y) plus a digital push-button switch. Connect the two analogue outputs and one digital output to your Arduino or other microcontroller for intuitive directional input — ideal for robot control, menu navigation, and game projects.
Part of DFRobot's Gravity sensor ecosystem, the module features clearly labelled analogue ("A") and digital ("D") interfaces and plugs directly into a Gravity IO Expansion Shield with the included cables.

- Supply Voltage – 3.3–5 V
- Interfaces – 2× analogue, 1× digital
- Dimensions – 35 × 39 mm
Ideal For
- Robot directional control
- Arduino game controllers
- Menu and UI navigation
Package Contents
- 1× Joystick Module V2

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- Gravity
- Gravity is DFRobot’s plug-in connector system for sensors, motors and modules, using standard cables to reduce loose jumper wiring. It matters because Gravity-compatible parts can connect directly to these ports, while non-Gravity parts may need adapters or manual wiring.
- microcontroller
- A microcontroller is a small computer on a chip that runs your program and controls connected inputs and outputs. For this product, it is the part that reads buttons and sensors, drives the display and speaker, and communicates over Bluetooth.
- PCB
- A printed circuit board is a rigid board with copper tracks that connect electronic parts without loose wires. For this kit, the PCBs also form the airplane shape, so they are both the circuit base and part of the finished model.
- Shield
- An add-on board that plugs into a main controller board to give it extra features such as sensing, motor control or communication. Knowing a product supports shields helps you judge whether it can connect neatly into an existing maker-board setup.
