## Description

A compact, self-centering analogue thumbstick with a feel and size similar to Nintendo Joy-Con joysticks. It uses two 10kΩ potentiometers (one for each axis) to provide proportional X/Y analogue output, plus a centre-press tactile button for selection — ideal for directional control in robotics, custom controllers, and interactive projects. The voltage output follows the thumbstick's position and returns to centre when released. Solder the 2mm pitch pins onto a custom breakout board for integration into your design. Key Features Self-Centering – Springs back to centre position when released Two-Axis Analogue – 10kΩ potentiometer per axis for smooth proportional control Centre Press Button – Built-in tactile button for selection/click Compact Joycon-Style Form Factor – Small enough for handheld builds Specifications Type – Self-centering analogue thumbstick Potentiometers – 2× 10kΩ (X and Y axes) Button – Centre-press tactile switch Pin Pitch – 2mm (not breadboard-compatible) Note: This is NOT a replacement for Nintendo Switch Joy-Con joysticks — it simply has a similar feel and size. The 2mm pin pitch requires a custom breakout board (not breadboard-friendly). Ideal For Custom game controllers and handhelds Robotics and RC control interfaces Menu navigation and UI input Interactive art and maker projects Package Contents 1× Mini Analog Thumbstick (with rocker cap)
