    probably someone's already mentioned this, anyway for anyone buying this in 2023, it comes with an extra octagonal gate which fits perfectly into a sanwa stick...NO NEED to get a sanwa gate

    Hello!
    I think that is a great idea to custimize a mayflash F300, here is why: first of all lets say that you paid 50 dollars for the stick, it is your first stick and you dont know for sure if you are going to like to play fighting games with a stick. For 50 dollars you have an ok quality buttons and lever, compatibility with: ps4, ps3, xbox one, xbox 360 and for sure, PC.
    If you feel comfortable playing whit a stick and you improved thanks to it, then go ahead and customize it.
    If you didn't? Well you can resell it for a good price.
    Lets say that are going to customize it, you gonna pay aprox 25 dollars for a sanwa lever and aprox. 20 dollars for the 8 sanwa buttons at your choice. This price added to the first 50 that you paid for the mayflash itself, goes for 95 dollars. More or less the price you would have paid for a mayflash F300 pro, but fully customized whit your style! And for a decent price you got the chance to test if you like the arcade stick usage!
    That is why i think that the mayflash F300 its a perfect entry arcade stick.
    PD: We bought the same sanwa pink buttons xd

      This is exactly what I did with the F500. Wasn't sure I wanted to commit to stick or fighting games in general, but as I've fallen in love with both, wear and tear happened pretty fast. So tonight I set it up with an all new stick and buttons for about 80$, and I paid 130 for the stick. Good investment.

    I think smaller sticks and cheaper stuff should get love too. Everyone wants the newest fanciest stuff but it's nice to know something like this is all you need. I have a Panthera but I modded an F300 and now that's my main stick! Lightweight, doesn't crush my thighs, easy to carry around and travel with. Easy to unscrew the back and get to the inside and easy to mod everything. Great stick imo not just for beginners and new people but literally anyone who wants a fun little project stick, or something with lighter and/or smaller form factor.

      This was my exact way into it. I have a custom built korean lever stick that's way too bulky to comfortably play on for long periods of time. I had an old Hori Tekken 6 stick that I somehow have managed to put authentic Sanwa parts in them. Now I essentially only use the Sanwa stick because of how light it is.

    I've bought a Mayflash f300 some time ago to check if I can switch from a pad. I took ma about one month to get used to it and about 3 months to be as good as on a pad. First I replaced the buttons for Sanwa which made a big difference. Then yesterday I installed Sanwa JLF. The stick lever is a bit shorter than the Mayflash one. Quality is better. It's less loose. Movement is easier with it. In genral replacing the buttons makes bigger difference than replacing the stick. Thank you for the tutorial. Your videos helped me with choosing the stick and modding it. I am really happy with it!

  • @dooley5297
    @dooley5297 Рік тому +9

    If you're having problems with a quarter circle or any circular commands, I highly recommend removing the rectangular inner part of the restrictor gate. I think Sanwa levers come with a rectangular restrictor gate that makes the lever highly favour 4 directions (up, down, left, right). By removing the inner part of the restrictor gate, the lever can move to corners with ease, making it register 8-ways much easier.
    Before you do this, I highly recommend checking youtube videos about arcade stick restrictor gates.

And it's good to know all the rest, in case I have to replace anything in the future!

      It's been a couple months, but be careful about trying this. Traditional Korean levers require a different sized hole than a Japanese lever to be mounted in a stick, as they have a big "collar" that sticks through. In the last few years, Korean levers that can be mounted in a Japanese setup have become more popular, so make sure you're getting the right one for your purposes. Look for something in the description that mentions it being compatible with Japanese mounting solutions, and avoid the ones with a fat collar.

Interesting feel, I kind of like it. DP motion seems more consistent for me, still can't Korean backdash in Tekken , but will keep practicing. I somehow keep sidestepping.

    I think the perfect way to use either the Seimitsu LS-32 or the Hori Hayabusa as following--
    1. Swap the stock PCB and replace them with four microswitches.
    2. Buy the 5-pin to .187" wiring harness.

    • @JoystickNY
      @JoystickNY  4 роки тому +1

      Sarah F it should handle similar to a sanwa, but seimitsu has a tighter tension, so if you prefer a less loose stick, you can actually buy a higher tension spring on your sanwa. It comes in 2Lb 3Lb 4LB, so you can get very close to the seimitsu feeling if you already own a sanwa, and seimitsu will be the closeted to korean levers because it has the metal tabs on the switches

      Get some needle nose pliers and grab onto the flat part of the connector below the wire. not the base where it's actually connected to the switch. Get a VERY firm grip. pull straight up slowly and slightly wiggle while pulling up, you're going to feel like you're going to break it but it'll be okay.

      The f300 selling point is just the price only because a lot of the extra features the f500 had didnt seem necessary at the moment but if you had experience and needed a spare backup stick just for fun the f500 is the better option

    • @ahzekahriman5840
      @ahzekahriman5840 4 роки тому +2

      I bought an F500. The weight and extra hand room are a necessity for me. The buttons are spaced more so it is closer to 'arcade' cabinets back in the day. My hands are quite large and cramp up using more compact sticks and controllers.
      The weight of the stick is very nice and the bottom feet keep it from slipping. I don't play with it on my lap, but on a little table so the stick doesn't move as much.
      I've used it for my PS3 and PS4 games and it works good for both. There's a fob you can buy for wireless connection to PS4 and Xbox 1.
      If you buy the F500 you should already be playing on multiple systems, as I think that is it's strongest selling point. Buying sticks for the PC, XBox, Switch, PS3, PS4 adds up so using just one is a boon. It also came with a Octagon gate and Square gate plate so those can be swapped out without buying one. I don't know how hard other people game, but no parts have broken yet and I use it for hours at a time without any failures. Don't beat on the stick too hard and it should last a long time.

    • @JoystickNY
      @JoystickNY  4 роки тому +1

      The Branded i think sometimes people just want the cheapest possible, which the f300 can do pretty much everything. And the extra money can go in to parts which makes the f300 a better stick after. But your right, a bigger usually is more comfortable to play with 🙏❤️👍

It gives the joystick extra height and seems to be perfectly centered too. If you do ever decide to try it the holes are underneath the acrylic panel and artwork. If there are issues with fitting this stick on an F300 you might have to compromise as there are no 4 extra holes. Hope this helps!

    Just got the f300...love it and it works ok for me. How much better will it be swapping out with sanwa parts? What are the main differences in performance with street fighter? Are combos easier to do or something?

    • @JoystickNY
      @JoystickNY  4 роки тому +1

      I would say change them once you can do everything in the game, it will be abit more responsive and more smooth over all 👍❤️

      @@JoystickNY yes, good advice. I'll master what I can first and then replace the parts when I feel the need. Thanks for your insight and the helpful reviews! 👍

    Thanks for your video is the Seimitsu LS-56 compatible with the Mayflash F101?
    Mayflash told me only the Sanwa joystick is compatible... but it has the same 5 pin slot... so... not sure.

    Is there a way to replace the buttons with glowing ones? Buttons that light up?
